I’m very excited to be cruising on the beautiful Anthem of the Seas in December and it’s my first time on this class of ship. I cruise solo, and have made several lunch and dinner reservations at Jamie’s Italian.
 

I’ve notice in videos and pictures that it has an outside dining area, and was wondering if this is to some degree climate controlled, or does it get too hot in there to be comfortable, especially cruising the Caribbean? I thought it would be nice to sit out there and enjoy the view while waiting on the next meal course to be delivered. 

Been on her 3 times, dined at Jamie's three times, Outside dining area was never open. Maybe if it's still in port at night? Never was during sea days for dinner outside.

Do you miss it?  I never thought I would but I really do. They have the best Schooner Bar in the fleet. I miss it so much. I also really miss every venue having direct views to the sea.  I'm in my 40's now so all the bells and whistles aren't as important anymore.  Know what else I miss? They still have a true Cinema with stadium seating. Sure its a little gimmicky if you will but I love it. Nice to have that option maybe on rainy sea day or something.  I also love where SeaView Cafe is, now Izumi. SeaView Cafe was the hidden little food gem back in the day.

Anyone who hasn't sailed on one in awhile, Are there things you miss about Radiance class ships?

Is everyone forgetting that the cruise industry wants those CDC guidelines and sued FLA to get them back?

If I'm wrong, don't attack, tell me in a normal toned conversation so we aren't hating each other like we always end up doing.

Every time we go on anthem it’s a must to do wonderland. February will be our fourth time in Wonderland it’s definitely great food and a great experience. 

Oooohhhh. I was looking for a get rich quick scheme so I guess I’m out.

Crime cruise? I’m intrigued. Do we rob the casino and get away on a cigarette boat? I might be interested 🤣

If you happen to have any questions please ask.

Does Maya Chan have a fleet of 20 or more cruise ships, Thousands of employees and a recently constructed $250 million upgrade to a private island on top of all the other overhead costs?

Before I left the cruise I had a credit for that amount the amount that was not spent was reimbursed to my card.

God bless anyone who has the financial means and time to achieve pinnacle status. If I live another 20 years maybe just maybe I’ll hit 340 points. And please don’t take what I said personally before I was just busting chops.  I enjoy meeting fellow cruisers who share the passion.

5ft I believe, 6 at most.

Some of these comments make me giggle ☺️  basing or picking your cruise on which lounge you have access to I find comical.
 

Whatever floats your boat.

I believe it will be refunded I was overcharged on a few things on my adventure cruise and when I got back it got reimbursed to my card. I brought up the overcharges and what not with guest relations on the ship.

Yay! Keep the lapel wearing braggers all in one room! They can keep 1 upping each other with cruise stories 😉

I'm just bustin chops!

I got em for $95, then the beach cabana at Coco Beach Club dropped from $1,399 to $699. I canceled the day pass for the cabana. I would only do it again if there were 2 ships docked. We also treated that day as our specialty dining day. The food was very, very good.

Cabana Tip: The fridges at Coco Beach Club Cabanas barely work, those beers have definitely been skunked.

No problem with the food in the MDR, or for that matter, the Windjammer, but for us, the more we cruise, the less patience we have with the MDR experience. It takes so long… 

This one throws me for a loop in my 18 cruises on Royal I’ve never had slow service in the main dining room ever. Specialty restaurants are hands down at least double the length of time.

No, it couldn't, because of viral interference. Covid shut out all other seasonal viruses except rhinovirus.

Plus I doubt masks would work against all seasonal viruses yet have zero impact on covid.

You're forgetting the airborne potency of Covid compared to other viruses.

I wonder why. Just stayed for a week in Nassau and they take Corona super serious. Has there been a huge outbreak or something I am unaware of?

Barely anyone is vaccinated on the island. Only 14.2%

It means nothing.

Exactly! When people were going hog wild a few days ago over a CDC recommendation that unhealthy people not cruise right now due to Delta variant risk the reaction in the forum made no sense to me....

Are you on a CC roll call for an upcoming cruise. Often, someone plans an informal meet and greet.

I go as far as saying on a roll call that I booked a cruise and look forward to it. I went to one meet and greet I believe on the serenade of the seas and it just wasn’t my cup of tea or maybe just the people weren’t.

Even me🤔

Absolutely. I wonder if I met anyone from this forum I’ll never know because Cruise Critic is never brought up.

We still were in the DL every night even with the vouchers. Love meeting fellow lovers of cruising.

These double points rock. It’s speeding up my Loyalty Status to D+. I’ll be there after my Oasis cruise next August 😊
