I recommend chill island. I have found several quite spots to relax and read in this area. Pool is always loud, South Beach can be a hit or miss with noise, IMO. I have never hung out at the other section I think it's called breezy bay so I cannot say if quite. I also like chill island as it is close to island market, restrooms, snorkeling and easy walk to the snack shack for lunch...funnel cakes, yummy! Or there is the Beach Club but is way over priced on most sailings. I purchased for $90 or $95 on black friday sale for my Anthem sailing in March. The red bull plane is not anything I ever saw while on the island. Hop on the tram, explore and enjoy.

+1. Happy Birthday to all @Momof3gurlz

Wow! She did a great job😊 Happy 5th Birthday to your Grandson.

I was 7 months old😄

Happy Anniversary to you and Toby💐

For us, we love deck 6 on Q class as it easy access via staircase to decks 4 and 5 to the Via (Vintages bar), 270, esplanade and MDR. We usually go with a cabin towards aft elevator / steps. We have had some great cabins that are so called obstruction but the only obstruction was not being able to look straight down to the water but nice clear view to look out at the water. Not all cabins are obstructed on this deck. We have had some nice balconies and JS's with a perfect view. Diamond lounge is deck 4 front of the ship but that's okay as I am usually up early and enjoy my morning walks and a nice empty lounge.

Most times it starts at 7 / 7:30 am and everyone off by 9 or 9:30 at latest for US ports. Of course times can change. I have seen some earlier start times, but usually 7 am

Never say Never😘

In some cases, buying onboard is cheaper for those that use their free D & D+ days and don't always need internet the first day or two onboard. In our case we are casino prime members and get 30% off internet booked onboard and always works out cheaper. We usually skip buying internet on day 1 since our phones will work until dinner time and nice to avoid internet night 1. then we use our free internet days, then buy onboard for remaining 3 or 4 days and get our 30% off. Example: our next sailing would cost $237.93 for current sale for a 7 night cruise for 2 devices. if we wait to buy onboard, use our 2 free days starting the morning of day 2 then purchase 4 days @ $25.00* per day and use our 30% casino discount we would pay $140 for 2 devices *$25.00/day was the onboard rate on our last sailing.

This will be Epic! I will definitely be following along to see the photos and am sure to have food envy😊

On my last sailing All of the beach club over the water cabanas were empty and looked like the ones in south beach area had 1 or 2 rented out. Smart marketing🤣

Yes, that does have a very large balcony. You will love that location. Deck 6 is one of our favorites. If able to do steps, it is an easy access to walk to deck 5 and don't tell anyone but there is a "secret" door at the aft of deck 6 that will take you to the library and 270 theater. Walk out your cabin door and make a right then continue to the end of the ship and look for a unmarked metal door (is heavy) - that is the "secret" door. Walk down the steps there and you can go to the cafe or lounge.

So what do you do when it is bitter cold outside and you keep thinking of warm sunny places you could be....book another cruise. We booked a 5 night Bermuda cruise on Liberty OTS for September. Eric received the casino offer last week for a OV Balcony with $125 freeplay. Works perfect with my vacation schedule (cruise march 3rd, 2 weeks at shore house in June, cruise in sept) and fit in there a 4 or 5 night trip to Cape Coral, FL in near future. Amazingly fast booking when I called the club royale number it took a total of 8 minutes to complete and was told we could upgrade to a spacious OV balcony at no additional cost.

I'm sure you will love Anthem. We have sailed on her several times and always enjoy the Quantum class size ships. Make sure you check out the 270 lounge / theater and the Cafe. 270 Cafe is a good place to go for lunch (kummelweck sandwiches, salads made to order, and other sandwiches made to order as well as their tuna wrap which I also enjoy. Since you are sailing in February out of Cape Liberty your first full day at sea will probably be too chilly to hang outside at the pool deck but no worries the indoor pool and the multi tiered solarium is really nice. We also enjoy Vintages bar in the Via on deck 5. Not a huge fan of the location of the schnooner bar as we prefer Radiance class ships where you can sit and look outdoors. On nice days we enjoy sitting at the outdoor section of the windjammer (go all the way to the back). There are steps that will take you up to the area where flowrider and I-fly are located (fun to watch) and easy access to the sports area. Indoor Hot dog stand (kielbasa, sausage, etc) in this area too. Bumper cars are always fun too! what deck is your cabin?

Our next cruise is March 3rd on the Anthem. Even though we have done this itinerary to the Bahamas several times I always enjoy a cruise to somewhere warm and sunny!

Happy 90th Birthday to Dick. I hope he is having a wonderful day doing whatever he wants!

Happy Birthday to Jack. Sounds like you both had a perfect day!

We have watched Football playoffs and superbowl at pool deck. Lots of fun. Usually have cocktail waiters walking around like daytime at the pool.

Hi Mark, wish I did stowaway in your luggage. We finished shoveling 3 driveways (1 was ours) after work. Had something like 6 to 7 inches of snow here in PA. Really looking forward to your photos to warm up. Enjoy😊

My boss's Wife was telling me they had 8 or 9 inches of rain in 3 hrs. We had 6 to 7 inches of snow today. I got out of work a little early then we shoveled out 2 neighbors. Relaxing now with some adult hot chocolate....mine has Kaluha and Eric's has peppermint schnapps

There isn't anything to do at the port or general area. The terminal probably won't open up for new passengers until 10 am is, and even then you may have to wait to board. Maybe get some breakfast at the airport. You can do check in online via app or website usually 45 days pre-cruise. Pick the earliest time slot but no worries they haven't been checking them at Cape Liberty. Usually with 3 to 4 weeks pre cruise date you can print your luggage tags. If using the app your set sail pass will be on there, no need to print. Or you can print it when you print your luggage tags. The only actual paperwork you must have with you is everyone's passports or the birth certificate option with ID for in person check in at the terminal. I prefer Uber. Have Fun

It started snowing around 6 am. Expecting 4 to 6 inches in my area. Going to leave for work after 7 and would love an early dismissal. I was suppose to be on Anthem 11 or 12 nighter to caribbean but cancelled then planned on being in Cape Coral and Gasparillo island leaving yesterday, but nope here I am in the snow and bitter cold temps tomorrow. Ugghh!!

Happy Birthday to your SIL 😃

Awesome news!! Congratulations to everyone❤️
