Does the Anthem go under the verrazzano narrows bridge?

[ace2542]

I don't see how it could fit given that it is a couple of decks higher than the QM2 which barely fits underneath it. Yet I don't see how it can get out of Bayonne without going under the bridge?

[RoePost]

Yes it does.  We were on it earlier this year and when leaving Cape Liberty it does sail under the Bridge.

It does,that is why it leaves at the time it does due to it being low tide.

Every ship out of Bayonne or New York goes under the bridge. You don’t see another way because there is no other way in or out.

Oasis goes in and out of Bayonne.

Even the Oasis Of The Seas can pass under the Verrazzano bridge ....with a little bit of technology

This is not their first rodeo.  Been going under that bridge for years.  You really think they schedule Anthem or Oasis to go out of Cape Liberty and can’t make it under the bridge???  Maybe they jump over the bridge or drive around it … lol.

I was sure they did. Having been on on QM2 a few times it seems like they only just get underneath with the funnel and that ship is smaller by some way than Anthem or Oasis. Seeing Anthem go under the bridge will be a fun experience.

Taken from Anthem just after going under the bridge:

No, it actually does a fly over. You must have heard about the Anthem's wings that were attached in the most recent dry dock.

Yes they do! If you go to the YouTube link in my bio and go all the way to the first video posted, you'll see us pass under it.

Wrong!  Anthem pulls up to the south side of the bridge.  People are bused from Cape Liberty to the bridge.  They drop a ladder to the deck and passengers climb down.

[Moltar]

Yes it does

I thought they let some air out of the tires to lower the ship until it was under the bridge
