we are very lucky to have Bob as one of our mods !! of course he makes all the other Hosts look bad:cool::cool:

All of the hosts here are awesome too..including you!! Thanks for everything.

Bumping this up in hopes that someone with the Anthem's daily planner compass will see it and respond.

Would love to see what daily activities are offered on this ship.

Thanks. :D

On the Explorer are you able to use your 3 free Diamond drinks in the dining room during dinner?

I was recently on the sister ship, The Adventure of the Seas and was able to use my 3 free Diamond drinks in the dining room, so my thoughts are that you probably could.

We were on the 9 night two weeks ago and there was no White Party that I can recall.

No white party on the Anthem? :(

I thought all of RC's ships had a white party. All the cruises I have been on have had them. I hope they are not doing away with them, as it seems like a bit hit with the passengers.

Bob knows more about Royal Caribbean than Royal Caribbean knows about Royal Caribbean...

That is so true!! haha.

I have asked questions about my upcoming cruises to RC, and they have no clue.....but Bob DOES!! :D

Bob is Host Clarea. He's sort of a resident Royal Caribbean expert; super good with accurately answering questions, and often the first person to respond. He was made a mod like a year or two ago, because he was so super helpful on these boards

Yes, Bob has always answered my questions accurately, and I always know I can count on him to respond quickly.

THANK YOU BOB!!! :D

It will be my first time on the Anthem, and not seeing much about that ship.....live reviews..etc.

Would love to hear feedback from anyone that has sailed on it.

Thank you. :D

Not even the pier is complete yet, the park is a year away.

I did not see the date of completion on the website, so I was wondering..

Thanks

Is the NEW waterpark at Coco Cay completed already?

When I go on the RC website, that private island shows the new water park, so I assumed it is.

(I cruised there 2 months ago and it was not)

Hello :D

Does anyone have the daily cruise compass schedule for the Florida/Bahama's itinerary that they can share. It will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

11666: balcony

11668: bathroom

Thank You Bob!! :)

Hello :)

Does anyone know the bed placement in cabins 11666 and 11668 on The Anthem of the Seas?

Beds by the closets or beds by the balcony?

Thanks in advance

I feel silly..... I've seen this before...... what is a genie !!!

Same here!!

I've been a member of cruise critic for a long time, and never heard of a "Genie".

What is a Genie? LOL!

Thanks in advance. :D

hahaha!!

Thank you for sharing your cruise. I enjoyed reading it, and enjoyed the pics/videos too.

Cruising on the Adventure in 4 more days, can't wait! :-)

I'm happy to read this thread about cruising with tips on trying to follow the low carb lifestyle while at sea.

Thanks

I came here to ask the very same question about heavy cream. Is is available on the Adventure of the Seas?

It seems that sooooo many people have started to follow the Ketogenic way of life, that I am surprised that the food services at RC has not caught on yet, since it seems by reading all the posts about that they have had so many requests.

Is heavy cream available in the cafe promenade on the AOS?

Thanks in advance

Diamond members get either $23 off a package, or one free continuous 24-hour period of internet.

Thank You Bob! :D

Yes, look for the RCOnline space on the ship. Any device can be second, third.....the one device package means you can use it on ANY one device at a time. You must log off one device to use the second.

Thank you for your reply :D

Your Diamond discount can only be used for onboard purchases.

Hi Bob :D

Do you know what the discount rate is onboard for Diamond Members for Voom?

Also..do they still have a computer room where I can use their PC instead of my phone? Would that be considered a second device?

They have changed the internet plans since the last time I cruised and purchased them.

Thank you!

You can opt for a cash account up front. Then, on the last night of the cruise you can pay off the account with a credit or debit card. This way there are no holds put on the card.

Great Idea Bob!! :D Thank You!

Thank you everyone for your replies.

I have used my Debit/Credit card on past cruises, and they put a hold on it, which took too much time for my liking to get it back after the cruise, so I think I will use the Cash option.

Have a great day! :D

Hello,

After reading the onboarding rules for methods of payment (for your final charges), I was wondering what option is better....the cash or credit card option.

The statement says that a "hold" will be put on your credit card for as long as 30 days until the release is made after your cruise, so I was wondering if the cash option was better to settle with at onboarding.

My question is...that if you choose the cash option, do they require a "deposit" of cash upon check-in.? (instead of the credit card hold upon check in)

I know they have ATM's on the ship. Does anyone know what the ATM max is per day to withdraw money from it? Also, what is the charge for the ATM?

Thank you in advance :D Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

PS...this would be on The Adventure of the Seas

Thank you for your response Bob :)

Hello All :)

Can someone please tell me how many formal nights there are on a 7 day cruise with the Florida/Bahamas itinerary?

Thanks in advance
