We sailed Harmony in an owners suite 2 weeks ago. What a fabulous cabin! Huge, tons of storage. Even with the sofa bed out AND a rollaway set up, there was room to move around. We received the email on the Monday prior to sailing and, though our requests were few, they handled them all. My only disappointment was requesting something for my adult daughter’s birthday on our first night. A candle in her dessert, an acknowledgment from our waiter but nothing . No big deal. Here’s our suite. We were in 10640. If you are too, please say hello to Fatoni from the Dumoulin’s! He was terrific!

Yup this is exactly the testing we did. And “yes” to the first question.
-
We arrived at 10:30 and were in the waiting area in 15 minutes. We had 11am arrival time though also in a suite. Didn’t see anyone being made to wait outside. No time spent in the sun.
-
If you don’t say “yes” to one of the first four questions, CVS lists a charge.

Heck Great Bay beach was apparently clothing optional as the woman next to my husband was sunbathing topless. Even the roaming vendors were gawking.

We did this on Nordic Empress 20 years ago on our first cruise! Lots to do and see in Bermuda. Just a beautiful island. I also recommend getting a three day transit pass. Gets you on the ferries and the bus system. They’ll tell you there are no thrill rides in Bermuda but try the busses!! Those drivers are fearless!! They are also used for school transportation so we had several rides with various aged school kids, so curious and open. It was a highlight of the trip. -
Don’t judge!!

You also have to remember that MANY of the phone reps are: 1. Home working in their Jammie’s 2. in a different country 3. Brand spanking new (as many lost their jobs & didn’t return post-covid) 4. Just trying to give you an answer so they can move on to the next call 5. CLUELESS beyond the narrow scope of very generic and common questions (yours was way out of their comfort zone but they certainly wouldn’t say that) 6. Any and all of the above. NEVER rely on a phone rep for answers. If you had asked if everyone entering the Waterpark needs a ticket (whether participating or not) you probably would have gotten the correct answer which is yes. How many ship at x capacity really means nothing if everyone on that ship wants to go to the waterpark.

Well I can’t deny I do like my elevensies!

Thank God!! I will need crappy pizza!
-
Wait, no Sorrentos?!?!? Where do I get my 10pm bad pizza??
-
Thanks, not bringing any kids so don’t care about that stuff. Was underwhelmed by CK so won’t miss that. My biggest concern is the size of the room/balcony but I can always look at Royal Up as it gets closer. Thanks Twangster
-
Or close? We sailed Mariner before the shutdown & felt it was plenty big enough (except for the balcony room!). I am somewhat concerned that everything will pale after the OS on Harmony! We don’t need or use the slides/flow rider/sports activities. What else am I going to miss?

There aren’t enough chemicals in the world to get me in a cruise ship hot tub
-
I have no problem with the quality of room service food and always tip the delivery person. My problem is ordering the correct quantities. If I could get it right, I don’t need a second, sit down breakfast after. I already eat too much on the cruise to add second breakfast!
-
17 was high enough for me. When the ship was ROCKING on our first night, CK moved A LOT!!
-
If your reservations are linked in the app & both show there, when you click the check in button, everyone will be there to select arrival times for. BUT, read above issues. I had no problem but others have.
-
Yeah and that did not work for us. I wanted 2 carafes as I’ll drink one myself and had to ask the delivery person for more. Luckily he had extra on the cart. I ordered 4 orders of bacon and 2 omelettes and got 2 pieces of bacon each on the omelette plates. Just no rhyme or reason.

We always do MTD and have never been seated with anyone else.

Crown and Anchor tier levels need changes?

We will reach Diamond in October on what will be our fifth cruise. Fifteen days between 2 cruises in suites under double points promotion. Looking forward to not needing the DBP. -
My brother’s reservation was linked to mine in the app and on the page showing my reservation, his showed right below. When check in opened, all six names showed and I could select arrival times for everyone.
-
We were seated at our own table and the same table every night without asking. I don’t think MTD does shared tables.

And what is the trick?
