Anthem of the Seas sailed into Sydney on the morning of October 30, opening her encore Australian season. The ship arrived after a trans-Pacific sailing from Honolulu and kicks the season off with a three-night getaway sailing today.

The season runs 21 sailings through April 14, spanning three-night weekend getaways, South Pacific escapes and New Zealand voyages. Together with Quantum of the Seas sailing from Brisbane, it forms Royal Caribbean's biggest Australian summer lineup yet.

What it means for your sailing: if you are booked on one of Anthem's Sydney sailings between now and April 14, your cruise runs as scheduled from Sydney, with the season spanning three-night getaways to New Zealand voyages. If you are still choosing dates, the Sydney season ends April 14, when Anthem departs on a 16-night trans-Pacific voyage to Vancouver.
