ocav Posted July 22, 2016 #1 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Just printed off the set sail passes for my upcoming Anthem cruise and noted it says; Alternatively, a WOWband will also be available inside your stateroom Suggests to me that they are now free and ready and waiting like they used to be on Quantum, anyone been on anthem recently and able to comment?

PokrChick Posted July 22, 2016 #4 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Weird. When I was on a couple weeks ago, they were definitely selling them. HUGE line. I can't imagine them giving up that kind of income. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocav Posted July 22, 2016 Author #5 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Well if they want to try and sell me one I'll just produce the set sail pass with its terminology, they'll have a good time arguing with that [emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapeCodCruiser Posted July 22, 2016 #6 Share Posted July 22, 2016 What is a WOW band? and what do they cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vedettes1 Posted July 22, 2016 #7 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Yes, what the heck is a WOW band and why would I want one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocav Posted July 22, 2016 Author #8 Share Posted July 22, 2016 What is a WOW band? and what do they cost? It's a wristband which can be used as your SeaPass card, similar to Disney MagicBands Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted July 22, 2016 #9 Share Posted July 22, 2016 What is a WOW band? and what do they cost? Thw WOW band is around $5. You wear it around your wrist. RFID chip inside is supposed to replace your SeaPass card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wendychloecruiser Posted July 22, 2016 #10 Share Posted July 22, 2016 WOW bands are a silicone bracelet that replaces your sea pass card on Oasis, Allure, Anthem, Quantum and Harmony. They cost $4.95 if you are in anything less than a suite. They are reusable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

setsail Posted July 22, 2016 #14 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Once you buy one can't it be reprogrammed to use on the other ships using this tech? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted July 22, 2016 #15 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Once you buy one can't it be reprogrammed to use on the other ships using this tech? Yes, though I would think the pre-printed muster station would likely be wrong for subsequent cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fligster Posted July 22, 2016 #16 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Where exactly does it say that? I am on 8/11 anthem and don't see that on my set sail pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
setsail Posted July 22, 2016 #17 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Yes, though I would think the pre-printed muster station would likely be wrong for subsequent cruises. I thought I read on here that you turn in the old one and they give you a new one because of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fligster Posted July 22, 2016 #18 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Looked again and mine says, "alternatively, wow bands are available for purchase from guest services" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted July 22, 2016 #19 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I thought I read on here that you turn in the old one and they give you a new one because of that. Makes sense, I must have missed that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwisles72 Posted July 22, 2016 #20 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Once you buy one can't it be reprogrammed to use on the other ships using this tech? Yes, we used our free Quantum bands on our recent cruise on Anthem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
setsail Posted July 22, 2016 #21 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Makes sense, I must have missed that. Thanks, I have not used one yet but later this year we will try it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merion_Mom Posted July 22, 2016 #25 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Both modalities are correct. They will reprogram or they will give you a new one. Both happened to me on my B2B on the Anthem earlier this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
