  1. You can use the deluxe beverage package at cafe-latitudes to cover the cost of your coffee.
  2. I will be boarding Harmony on Sunday, and when I choose a Central Park balcony room because I read under what is included with the Central Park balcony cabins is a bottle of red wine, a free learn to play casino gaming session, and lunch at Jamie’s Italian, Sabor, or Johnny Rockets. What I want to know is how do I make reservations at one of those three restaurants for lunch??? Do I make the reservation for the included speciality restaurant that I would like to have lunch at online or do I wait till onboard the ship and then make the reservation for the restaurant where I would like to have lunch??
  3. The cruise planner is available until 3 days before your cruise.
  4. I have been to breakfast on disembarkation morning with all of my luggage and have had breakfast at the windjammer a few times and also had breakfast at the MDR once. All the times I been on cruises I had breakfast on the morning of disembarkation and I had carried all of my luggage with me to breakfast. When I was done eating I had self disembarked from the ships between 8am - 9am. I had also carried my luggage with me to lunch in the windjammer on embarkation day of all the cruises I had been on.
  5. That is the exact same travel adapter that I purchased for my cruise last December and I plan on being the adapter on my next cruise in about 2 weeks. On my cruise last December I had brought a travel adapter and it was not confiscated because I put the adapter in my checked luggage and I was not called down to the naughty room.
  6. I am going on RC’s Harmony in 18 days and I have watched a lot of YouTube videos where people have the wow bands and use the band in place/in addition to using their sea pass card. I know that the wow bands can be used with your sea pass card and I am considering purchasing 1 for me & 1 for my mom, but I would like to know what the opinions of others are who the wow bands are if you have used them before and if they would be easier to use then the sea pass card. Please tell me the difference between using wow bands VS. using sea pass card.
  7. If you download the Royal Caribbean app and check the ship time (when going ashore at the ports of call). Use the ship time that is located in the upper left hand corner to check the time when ashore at the ports of call so that you can be back onboard the ship before the ship leaves the dock. When you are on the ship there is no need to open the Royal Caribbean app to check the ship time because you can just check the time on the home screen of your cell phone since the time on your cell phone would be the same time that the Royal Caribbean app says. The ship time on the app was useful to me so that when I got off the ship at ports of call I would be back on board before the ship left the dock. If you download the Royal Caribbean app and check the ship time (when going ashore at the ports of call). Use the ship time that is located in the upper left hand corner to check the time when ashore at the ports of call so that you can be back onboard the ship before the ship leaves the dock.
  8. Port of Miami is 3 Hours to 4.5 hours away from Orlando. I live 2 hours south of Orlando and 2.5 hours north of Miami. I have been to Miami twice and Orlando at least a dozen or more times, so it does take 3 hours to 4.5 hours without traffic, delays, detours, and making stops.
  9. Your credit card may not have had enough room left on your credit card to cover the remanding balance or you did not have enough money in your bank account to have enough money in the account for RC to receive your final remaining balance on your upcoming cruise. If I was in your situation I would immediately call RC/TA and inquire if your cruise balance has been paid.
  10. I have cruised with friends and family before in the same stateroom and when I completed online checkin for myself and my friends and family, I linked a credit card to mine and one family members seapass card, and had selected cash for the other people on the reservation and when we went to the checkin counter at the cruise port to have our pictures take and to receive individual seapass cards, then my friends and other family members who did not have the same credit card linked to there seapass could have there own debit/credit card linked to their own seapass card. on the last night of the the cruise you will receive the bill for each of the payment methods that is on file for each person in the stateroom (expect if more then one person has the same debit/credit card to their seapass card). If one person wants to pay with cash then they should head to guest services with their bill and pay their bill with cash. If all the people in the stateroom have a credit/debit card linked to their seapass account then the amount that your charges to your seapass would be billed to the card that you put on file when you checked in and the amount on your bill will be charged to your credit/debit card.
  11. I agree with you/your sister, in the hopes that CATS will get changed to a different musical or even comedy shows. Ive seen about 5 minutes of CATS when the musical started and I did not like what I saw of the CATS musical so I decided to leave the theater and go somewhere else instead of watching the entire CATS musical.
  12. I went on a Caribbean cruise in early December 2018 and I agree with the things that @Lovetocruise2002 said abound not only about her cruise in December but all winter cruises. I have been on 4 cruises, 2 of them in the summer, 1 in mid fall, 1 in late fall and 1 in the winter. I did not enjoy the 3 cruises that I went on in the summer because it was mostly hot and humid and muggy. But I did I like the 2 fall better then the summer cruise because it was not as hot or humid/muggy, I loved the cruise that I took in December because even through it was winter it was not cold but that could just be because I had cruises to the Caribbean. Also the Caribbean ocean RC’s pool’s was warm. The Caribbean waters are warm, but if you are to go swimming in the Florida waters at first the water is cold but when you have been swimming in the Florida waters for a few minutes the cold Floridia waters will now feel warm.
  13. I believe that your friend should be able to watch the 2019 ncaa basketball tournament games since there is a sports bar called ON AIR on allure where sports fans can watch there favorite sports games while on the ship. hope that information helps and that your friend can also watch the 2019 ncaa basketball tournament games while onboard the ship.
  14. I might be purchasing a WoWband for myself and also purchase one for my mother when her and I board Harmony next month I know that wowbands can be worn on the wrist and being used in addition to the seapass card, but what I would love to know is when going ashore would the people at the boarding area of the ship scan the WoWbands when going ashore and when coming back onto the ship or would I need to have my seapass be scanned when leaving and boarding the ship at the ports of call? Also, on disembarkation day (the day the ship get back into the ships homeport) would the WOWband or seaspass card be scanned when I disembark the ship?
  15. The same is also true for Port Canaveral, select RC terminals at port everglades, port of Tampa and port of Miami. Even if you checkin online you still have to walk through security, and at different cruise terminals you still have to checkin with a representative. I had to checkin with a representative at the terminal in Port Canaveral even through I had checked in online.
  16. Take your picture at home and upload the photo when you complete online check-in, and then you can save time at the terminal because you would have already taken and uploaded you photo when you had checked in online. I took a picture at home and uploaded the photo. By taking a picture and uploading the picture for you and the other people in your party, when you arrive at the cruise terminal you do not have to stand in line to have your picture taken at the check-in counter, a cruise line employee will scan your setsail pass and then you can board the ship.
  17. Royal Caribbean does not automatically refund or credit you the price difference on the items you purchased If the items that you brought beforeare cheaper now then when they were purchased. I would cancel and rebook at the lower price. You can cancel items that you purchased in your cruise planner and rebook if the price is cheaper and you can purchase other services/packages until 3 days before your cruise. A month ago I purchased some cruise planner items before they were on sale and last week I noticed that some of the items I had previously purchased were now on sale for up to 50% off, so I had cancelled those items and I had repurchased them at the lower price.
  18. Harmony and Oasis are sister ships so the showers will be the same size The only way that showers would differ in size is if you stayed in a suite on Oasis and in a regular size stateroom on Harmony or if you stay in a suite on Harmony and stayed in a regular stateroom on Oasis. The bathroom in suites are larger then the bathrooms in normal size staterooms and then the shower or bath/shower would be bigger then other staterooms that is smaller then a suite.

  20. You are definitely correct. This is ABSOLUTELY CRAZy
  21. The porter service is FREE. if you want you can tip the porter that takes your luggage.
  22. When you arrive at the port you can drop off your checked luggage and carry on’s with the one of the porters at your ship’s terminal just outside the enterance to the cruise terminal. When you drop off your luggage will be boarded on the ship by one of the porters and delivered to your cabin by the RCCL crew that attends to the staterooms. By dropping off your checked luggage and carry on, you will not have to lug the carry on and luggage around everywhere until your cabin is ready.
  23. The cabins are not ready till after 1:00pm. The boarding times are just a suggestion but you can arrive whenever you want. You can arrive to the terminal and have your seapass scanned and board the ship early (if the ship is not strict about what time that you arrive) but you will not have access to your cabin till after 1:00pm.
  24. When I opened the Royal app a few minutes ago the app did not crash when i had launched the app. Maybe it’s just your luck or you need to update the Royal app so that it does not crash again next time you open the app. It could also just be that your phone does not support the RC’s app.
  25. Just maybe....the ships captin and RC got notified just how long that it will take the coast guard to preform inspection of brilliance and everyone who is cruising that day was emailed that they could not board until after 12pm because then maybe....the coast guard could not inspect the ship with passengers roaming around the ship. When a cruise ship is entering another country the coast guard (or the country local officials) will board the ship and inspect the ship before people can enter the country at the port of call or disembark the ship when the ship dock at her home port. The US coast guard inspects every ship upon return to her home port in either the United States or in Puerto Rico.
