Just off Anthem ask me questions, I may be able to answer.

How’s the “engine issues”? We are heading in a TA in a few weeks and getting anxious about our ports. Any changes to your itinerary?

Considering that she's doing 21knots today and none of the recent sailings have been modified, one can assume there are no engine "issues" for now.

Tea bag brands. Sweet n Low? Gluten Free eating?

Thanks.

I can answer 2 out of 3:

 

On my 2/4 Anthem cruise, there was a pretty good selection of Bigelow tea bags, both caffeinated and herbal.  Yes to both pink and yellow sweetener packets (can't recall if they were the name brands).

My room attendant said our sailing Aptil 2-9 was the last one doing twice a day room cleaning.

I can't answer the types of tea bags, but they do have sweet n low (pink packets, right). As for gluten free, i am not sure about that exactly, but I have a lot of allergies and if you speak to your waiter about your gluten free diet, they will have someone higher (head waiter, etc), about what they can offer you. I did notice quite a few desserts that were GF.

Sweeteners have been generic for a while now.

Plus, that smoking lounge where some folks gamble (on most itineraries).
