Anthem of the Seas is almost here - she recently went through her conveyance and it was a success! Want to learn more about the conveyance process? Check out this video to learn more and let me know what you think. Pretty neat, right?


The building of the Anthem of the Seas, the sister vessel of the Quantum of the Seas, commenced with the keel laying on 19th November 2013. Work will be completed upon delivery of the ship this Spring.

As far as entertainment, engineering and safety are concerned, the Anthem of the Seas will be of an equal standard as its sister vessel, the Quantum of the Seas.

Highlights:
  • virtual balconies into the inside cabins 
  • an unforgettable view from the ninety-metre-high ‘North Star‘ observation capsule
  • high-action entertainment such as bumper cars available in the SeaPlex multifunctional room
  • simulated parachute jumping courtesy of the ‘RipCord by iFly‘
  • traditional attractions, such as the ‘FlowRider‘ surfing simulator


Once it has commenced service, the Anthem of the Seas will sail with its 4,100 passengers from Southampton (England) to Norway and the Mediterranean, before making its way from Fort Lauderdale (Florida) to the Caribbean in winter 2015. A third quantum-class ship has been ordered from the shipyard and is scheduled for delivery in 2016.
