In November, the 18-deck, 4,200-passenger Anthem will sail to arrive at Cape Liberty, New Jersey to sail the Caribbean.

Standout features of Anthem include the RipCord by iFLY skydiving simulator, 30 bars and restaurants, and a SeaPlex which houses bumper cars, a roller disco, a circus school, and other sports.
