Anthem of the Seas, Maiden cruises

[Dark Knight]

Just seen the cruise prices for the new "Anthem of the seas" cruises
15 nights in the Caribbean October 2015 from £1349
16 nights in the Med ,May 2015 from £1549

From Southampton

I suspect a price war is coming and hopefully , us late bookers can reap the benefit

Could prove very competitive with two new ships doing maiden seasons out of Southampton at the same time.

After much deliberation , and after cruising almost exclusively with P and O for 12 years I have been tempted by RCI Anthem of the seas 16 days from Southampton May 6th , Balcony cabin , all Inclusive , tips and CPS parking included. Could not really get a comparable price for Britannia.

Eek!! Have I done the right thing???


Oh we'll change as good as a rest??? I hope so..!!

We have done the same, after cruising with P&O for the past 6 years. Gone for the 1st June sailing.

It's a massive saving with drinks & tips included for our family

We've had a lovely cream tea today at the Holmwood at Cowes watching the Anthem of the Seas come out of Southampton Water with the viewing pod extended to full height which I believe is 300ft above sea level. I can safely say that, even if we ever decided to book Anthem of the Sea, you will not ever see me in the viewing pod. Once it headed out along the Solent towards East Cowes the arm of the pod was brought down level fairly quickly. We will leave that adventure to others.
