Je Souhaite Posted October 20, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Heard from a friend on board. Skipping due to weather. I almost went with this port in mind but didn't But a stormy rainy windy Bermuda while approaching with waves aren't fun. Bon voyage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starrcards Posted October 20, 2016 #2 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Norwegian Breakaway in Bermuda today. Cloudy and 79. No rain when I checked the web cam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crisndeefromde Posted October 20, 2016 #3 Share Posted October 20, 2016 looks like that they have had showers but might be a little on cool side...long pants on guests coming off ship and returning...dock looks wet. Must be something else going on as this wouldn't deter the port of call..especially if the breakaway is there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slopoke15 Posted October 20, 2016 #5 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Ah just saw the letter on another post about this tropical depression coming...much better to be safe for sure.... this is especially true for Anthem given that it has been caught in a few really bad storms already in it's short history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crisndeefromde Posted October 20, 2016 #6 Share Posted October 20, 2016 this is especially true for Anthem given that it has been caught in a few really bad storms already in it's short history For sure...perhaps the Explorer needs to return to Cape Liberty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BND Posted October 20, 2016 #7 Share Posted October 20, 2016 (edited) Anthem is leaving CL today so wasn't scheduled in Bermuda until Sat. As pp said, there was a letter posted by Yorkvillain who is doing a live report that states why and what the plan is. We've cruised on Ex and Anthem (and Celebrity Summit) out of CL and had our fair share of weather, but our Anthem and Summit cruises had great weather. For some reason, people seem to think the newer ships shouldn't be affected. It's not a function of which ship. I also think if you check who is reporting back about "horrible cruises and weather", they're typically first time cruisers who have no clue.

Very true...we have been through some tough storms on Explorer and just went with the flow....after the last one though we looked at each other and said...flying to San Juan and getting on the Adventure...So it has been a while for us out of Bayonne...Summit was fine when I did a girls cruise. My bestie said wow...look at the water...its like glass...why have we not seen this on all of our Explorer trips...I answered with Winter and the Atlantic...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribbean sailor Posted October 21, 2016 #9 Share Posted October 21, 2016 For sure...perhaps the Explorer needs to return to Cape Liberty We will second that move.Would love to see a voyager or freedom class ship.Return to Cape Liberty. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansolosmom Posted October 22, 2016 #10 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Ok so we are on Anthem. We didn't even know we weren't stopping in Bermuda until we were on-board and my dh head about it in line at 270. The captain reiterated it after muster. Apparently some people got a note about it while checking in, but we didn't. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BND Posted October 24, 2016 #18 Share Posted October 24, 2016 We sailed EX 4 times and were on Anthem in April. I like them both. We really enjoyed Anthem and don't feel the need to whine about EX not being in CL anymore. Anthem was built for NE cruises with more indoor space/activities. As for not being informed about the change in itinerary, it sounds like most people knew. There's always the chance that some won't find out for a variety of reasons. It's not that RCI didn't tell anyone. It's more that they were handing out papers and honestly, it's not unusual for people to just walk by someone with papers in their hands thinking it's just something not important, they just don't want to be bothered, or they just didn't notice.
