Royal Caribbean's Empress of the Seas Brings British Crew members home. In an effort to get crew member home, Royal Caribbean's Empress of the Seas departed Coco Cay in the Bahamas on May 19th, 2020 heading toward Southampton, United Kingdom. The Empress of the Seas is expected to arrive on June 5th 2020.  It is unclear what the next port will be after the Southampton call. If the coronavirus had not occurred the Empress of the Seas would have been sailing from Cape Liberty, Bayonne New Jersey - sailing to Bermuda, or New England / Canada itineraries.

Royal Caribbean's Anthem of the Seas Passengers Checked for Coronavirus UPDATE So far the results for passengers, thought to possibly have the Coronavirus, have come back negative. Although some additional tests are outstanding, results look promising that the passengers may have had the common flu and NOT the Coronavirus. Royal Caribbean has decided to take caution and wait for all passenger test results to come in. Royal Caribbean has opted to take the additional time to further sterilize the ship and surfaces. With this said the Anthem of the Seas sits tonight (Friday) empty at Cape Liberty Bayonne, while the crew vigourously wipes down and sterilizes all parts of the ship. The Anthem of the Seas is now scheduled to sail from Cape Liberty Bayonne on a 7 day cruise (no longer an 8 day cruise) on Saturday (2/8) at around 5 PM. An added day at sea has been eliminated and the cruise will still visit the anticipated ports in the Bahamas and Florida. Stay tuned to track...

I found this interesting video on Royal Caribbean's Anthem of the Seas. During her inaugural ceremonies, upon her initial arrival in New York - the Anthem of the Seas sailed up the Hudson River as far as the Empire State Building. This video shows the spectacular skyline, at night, as the ship sails up the Hudson River. On a normal departure the Anthem of the Seas does not provide passengers this view, since the ship normally departs Cape Liberty, Bayonne NJ and turns right toward the bridge and out to sea. I hope you enjoy this video.  RETURN TO NYCRUISEINFO.com   ---------------------------------------   Sister Sites => NYCruiseInfo.com Website - Cruise Schedule, Ship Reviews, Ports of Call & More. => Nick's Cruise Corner Blog - News On Cruise Ships Sailing World Wide. => Follow Us on Instagram - NYCruiseInfo At Instagram => Subscribe to Our Monthly New York Cruises Newsletter .
