LuvWilliam Posted June 23, 2015 #1 Share Posted June 23, 2015 We have never sailed on Thanksgiving before and are looking at sailing on Anthem next year. Can anyone tell me if they do anything special for the holiday? Also, we are vegan so will they have the normal food (salad, etc) in the Windjammer still?

cruisingsince94 Posted June 23, 2015 #2 Share Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) The WJ will have its usual selections of food and salads, fruit, etc. Edited June 23, 2015 by cruisingsince94 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisingsince94 Posted June 23, 2015 #3 Share Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) The WJ will have its usual selections of food and salads, fruit, etc. As for the MDR, on Holiday weeks they typically adjust the menu cycle to have turkey on Thanksgiving day. I do not know if Anthem will adhere to that since they have Dynamic Dining in place. Edited June 23, 2015 by cruisingsince94 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BecciBoo Posted June 23, 2015 #5 Share Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) MDR offers turkey/dressing and all the trimmings, but if you're expecting the taste of home cooked Thanksgiving dinner, I wouldn't recommend it. Unless you like a Lubby's style dinner. We've done 2 Thanksgiving cruises. We loved them, But the second time, didn't order the dinner:( Had a fillet instead:D Edited June 23, 2015 by BecciBoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen of Oakville Posted June 23, 2015 #7 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I've had the turkey dinner on board. there are better things to eat :) We've cruised over Canadian thanksgiving. Had our t-day dinner the week before we left. I was pleasantly surprised when the Captain wished the Canadians on board a happy thanksgiving.

aunursa Posted June 24, 2015 #10 Share Posted June 24, 2015 We sailed on Mariner OTS a few years ago. A day before the holiday they decorated the ship. And they had special Thanksgiving menus for dinner. There were a few Thanksgiving-themed family activities. Expect lots and lots of kids. We had 900 onboard.

LuvWilliam Posted June 24, 2015 Author #11 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Thank you to everyone who responded! Anthem is a great deal for Thanksgiving next year and leaving out of NJ, so no flights for us. I think we are going to book! [emoji4] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
