Chose this cruise because of the sail date and itinerary. Anthem is a beautiful ship and you get the feeling that they are trying to recoup their huge investment in this ship as soon as possible.
It seems that every time we sail on RCCL, the drinks cost more, new fees are added, and the service gets worse. Not to mention the mediocre food and inconsistent service.
We were told that they are abandoning the system of reservations for each and every restaurant and going back to a more traditional system of dining hours with options for anytime and the specialty restaurants.
Horrible getting there.
Mostly shopping- but very scenic.
