Royal Caribbean’s Anthem of the Seas to set sail from Southampton from 7th July 2021

LONDON, UK, 2021-Jun-30 — /Travel PR News/ — Today (June 29, 2021), Anthem of the Seas arrived in Southampton before taking UK holidaymakers to new heights on staycation cruises this summer. The first of Royal Caribbean International’s global fleet to once again welcome guests in Europe, Anthem comes complete with the world’s tallest observation capsule at sea, the North Star – an awe-inspiring, 360-degree observation capsule that extends 91 meters (300 feet) above sea level to offer incredible views of the UK’s coastline.

The North Star is just one of the world-class features on Anthem, with the ship having an incredible array of activities. Adventures include RipCord by iFly, the world’s first sky diving experience at sea; FlowRider, the cruise line’s popular surf simulator; and SeaPlex the largest indoor activity space at sea, complete with bumper cars and roller skating.

What’s more, the ship boasts a Bionic Bar where guests can enjoy watching their favourite drinks mixed by robotic bartenders before catching a show at Two70, a game-changing entertainment space, or taking in the West End smash hit ‘We Will Rock You’ in the Royal Theater, all teeing up the ship to be the most action-packed cruise sailing from the UK. Anthem’s first cruise is set to depart on 7th July 2021.

With a jaw-dropping lineup of onboard activities, restaurants and entertainment, Anthem presents the perfect getaway this summer. We can’t wait to welcome families back on board one of the most revolutionary ships in our fleet for a summer of adventure.”

UK families can choose from a combination of 4-night Ocean Getaways and 5- to 8-night British Isles cruises that feature visits to iconic destinations around the UK, such as Liverpool, England; Kirkwall, Scotland and Belfast, Northern Ireland.
