Depending on what happens July 19th you may find they come back on sale, as no one knows what the capacity levels anythings possible

We are still waiting for our fcc for our may cruise to be reissued our ta as put a new one on hold and is still chasing rcl for the new fcc. She as managed to extend our hold but wasn't able to do it for her all her customers in the same predicament as us

When our May cruise on Anthem was cancelled we were offered a lift and shift to next year but it was +- 2 weeks of the original date

Hi All,

I’m looking to book a trip on the anthem in September. There aren’t any  disabled balcony rooms available so I’m looking to book a standard room. Does anyone know if RCL have portable shower chairs that we can use? She can’t stand for long so one would be required. Else I can buy one but just helps if we know if they have these to use. 
 

Thanks! 

If you are sailing out of Southampton and royal don't supply them I know my neighbour as hired things from mobility at sea, I'm not sure if they are cost effective though

We've just always used the sea bands and found them to be good. On our last trip from Southampton to Bruges the sea was quite rough, as we were ok we loaned our bands to a lady that was stuck in her cabin being seasick and it enabled her to get out of the cabin. Also used them for a few bad crossings across the bay of biscay and they worked.

Received an email from a TA saying DBP from £35 pppd on Anthem out of Southampton 2021, went on the cruise planner and it was £34.96 pppd so saved nearly £90, so anyone who's hoping to sail on Anthem next year it may be worth checking.

Always lock in a low price when you see one! If it does go lower between now and your cruise, you can always cancel and repurchase at the lower price.

I took the bait last night and got it, I sold it to my hubby by saying it's only 3 alcoholic drinks a day more than the refreshment package which is £18.24 pppd

That's what I was thinking I can't seem to remember it going that low 2 years ago

We had a FCC for £300 from a CWC for a cruise that was due to leave on Sunday. Decided last week to put it down as a deposit on a 7 night cruise leaving fron Southampton on the 28th May 2021. We've had a CP sale start today with the alcohol package showing at £41.04 pppd down from £54. My dilemma is do I buy it now as haven't sailed on RCCL for a few years but this seems like a good price and hoping things will improve by May next year

We are due to go on an Italian med cruise from Southampton in Aug will definitely be cancelling if we can get hold of our TA

I've never heard of it or looked for it as didn't know about it until it was mentioned on here but I honestly think they will cancel the cruise or move the ports if there are any issues 

We use cover for you and add in cruise, we do a yearly one and it's quite reasonable 

I cancelled one recently and it took less than a week for the refund to appear 

Another vote for ab parking we used them 2 years ago and were impressed, we're already booked for Aug this year, and found them to be a lot more economical than others 

Just checked as I do everyday and the refreshment package I think was £25.84 per day yesterday is now £16.72 I think we paid £15 2 years ago. The dpp is down to £46.36 I think it was just under £50 yesterday so a bit of a saving. My hubby calls me obsessive for going on cruise planner everyday but think he'll forgive me now

There were quite a few on indy a few years ago and can't remember them being stopped from anywhere we even saw one getting on a tender at villefranche. I know it's a different ship but hopefully same rules apply. Sorry I can't help with the destinations as we are in the UK.

On the Ice Rink

Pmsl 

Mine's August as well originally booked when it was released so had the drinks package but now on meds so can't drink, even if now added it would still save £600 but decided the hubby will just pay as he goes 

Many thanks for the heads up we've just rebooked and saved £2000 and luckily only lost £150 as was booked when first released 

2 years ago they reduced the prices about whit weekend for both the drinks packages and excursions, we didn't cruise rccl last year but hoping for some similar deals this year

We've got all inclusive on Anthem this year but that's a UK sailing but the fare went up by over £29 pppd from what it was prior to the offer

I've used them 2 or 3 times and have had no bad issues but when I pre registered for p&o online they phoned me to try and do a booking and when I said I'd done it online he told me I'd requested a phone call. It took 24hrs to sort out but I was right all along and he didn't know what he was talking about which he admitted. We got the cabin we wanted on the cruise we wanted so everything worked out fine, its also easy to make payments online so no phone calls to bother with. 

The deposit was the same as others wanted as well so really pleased

There are a few of us from the UK on here, we are hopefully on anthem in Aug 2020 as long as our annual leave is at the right time 

We paid £150 for the digital package on a 14 night cruise last year and were really pleased as came away with over 300 photos. Once the photographers knew we had the package they made a point of looking out for us. As we were on indy we could go and check them on the terminals and if any were missing the staff were able to locate them for you 

I can't remember going through any but we are UK based it may depend on which country you come from, I've asked my hubby and he can't even remember if we showed passports just remember it being really quick and no hassles
