sellwingri Posted October 31, 2021 #26 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Love this ship! Sailed in Sept around the UK and will be on her again in 2 weeks. The first cruise out of Bayonne was originally scheduled for Nov 7th but was changed a couple of weeks ago to Nov 8th, shortening it to 6 days.

2VaCruzers Posted October 31, 2021 #27 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Daughter and I will be on the November 8th sailing out of Bayonne. Was supposed to sail on the 7th, but we were told they needed a day for inspections, so our cruise was cut short a day and Nassau was eliminated. We’re excited!!

We were refunded one day of cruise fare/and port fees and given $100 OBC. The hardest part was having everything on our planner refunded and then having to rebook everything a week and a half later. Some of our original OBC wasn’t refunded and out TA had to intervene. Others on the sailing had a lot more issues, but I believe everything has been straightened out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The screenshot taken from my iPhone 13 Pro Max uploads to CC rather crappy, so I’m not sure if it’s the fact that it’s not a “traditional image shape” (oblong and it’s being compressed instead of plain square) or what. I am getting the SAT AIS info (LAT/LONG, etc.) info as well as the noon location updates, but not sure folks on here would be able to map that? I was a Quartermaster in the Navy for 12 years and charts still come to me second nature. Since they also have the wrong “Bayonne” on the Marine Traffic destination (France, instead of the US) some of the other data is just incorrect.

Since I’ve been off of Santa’s drop-off schedule for quite a few years now LOL, tracking Anthem of the Seas is indeed sort of my “Santa”, and my gift to myself for surviving (so far) these last 20 months. That, and a return to attending live theater yesterday for the first time since the pandemic shutdown. 😁 I’m glad that we all have something to track nowadays! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't agree more and am getting a little giddy over it. We board Anthem in 34 days. Just booked it a couple of weeks ago. Thanks for posting the maps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot that those who don’t use MT wouldn’t know that passengers ships are blue, merchant are green, tankers are red, etc. Yes, I can use filters to eliminate all of those, but had kept them in just because I though it looked neat with Anthem of the Seas out there with so many other ships. Even if I filter out all non-passenger ships it still leaves some of the blue ones. I’ll take a look at CruiseMapper when I get home this evening from work. 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is scheduled to arrive in Bayonne by 11am on Sunday, Nov. 7 The more I see the anticipated arrival time and the cutting back of Anthem's first trip, the more I wonder if someone didn't realize "Damn. We scheduled that first trip on the day of the NYC Marathon. Way too many people won't make boarding time." An 11:00am arrival in Bayonne means passing the Verrazzano sometime after 10:00 - with many runners still on the bridge. Might get some good pics from the TV coverage - if someone swings the camera to the side. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know because I was on a cruise and decided to leave Long Island and stay in Elizabeth NJ the night before the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were sitting next to the window eating lunch one day in American Icon, and a huge wave hit the window. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
