Welcome to the forums! I haven't sailed on Harmony (yet), but to tide you over, in case you haven't found this thread yet, here is a thread on cruise tips and hacks:
-
That's awesome! Thanks for sharing! Keep us posted once it rolls around ?
-
Some of them even cover pet emergencies - perfect for someone like me!
-
I think @SweetPea should come on the October 2020 New England/Canada Group Cruise on Brilliance!
-
I'm hoping that's in 270 on Ovation, too, because I'm all over that!

A good half of the price is the equivalent of the Voom package. So you'll just have to decide for yourself whether or not the other benefits are worth it to you (dedicated seating, priority embarkation/tendering/debarkation, dedicated times for activities). For some that answer would be yes, for others it would not be. Since I doubt I'll be able to get into suite class for quite a while (haven't been able to convince the DH that it's a good use of my OT money), I did like the feeling of being a little "special".

Random thoughts/rants of a first-time cruiser (long)
SpeedNoodles replied to JerseyJoe's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I'm wondering if self-serve ice cream is going to start being phased out due to hygiene concerns. I believe they changed it on Navigator during the amplification. I wish they'd done that on Mariner because it was just a gross mess with children attempting to serve themselves, ice cream not ending up in the cones, and their sticky, dirty, hands all over everything. I got one once, and it all just grossed me out so badly that I never went back. -

I feel like I need a lawyer to help me figure out what I need now. -

I’ve been to Blue Lagoon (Nassau - is there one in Costa Maya?) What in particular do you want to know about it?- 7 replies

11 night Alaska cruise 5/13-5/34
SpeedNoodles replied to Sarah hamel's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I was able to book IFly for my June 21st sailing during the very short window that it was available. I never saw Northstar, and I check at least twice a day. I was told that times would open up for everything on the ship. -
Junior Suite and Ocean View Balcony
SpeedNoodles replied to teacherdl's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Double points, more space, good deal .. no brainer for me! I've been looking at JS for my Symphony cruise, but they are pricing about $2200 more than my balcony ? -
I think they just bump the price up occasionally to get people to jump on it when it comes back down in price, lol.

Cabin 9216 is way up near the front of the ship, which is why it slants. Your cabin is aft, where the wall doesn't slant. Here's where 9216 is:

Salmon fishing excursion in Skagway
SpeedNoodles replied to SpeedNoodles's topic in Shore Excursions
Yep, we've been there twice. I went horseback riding in Skagway the first time (awesome, wanted to bring my horse home - had it been possible I would have, and they would have let me, because he really wasn't line trail riding material) - the next time we did the excursion that takes you up to White Pass in a van, unloads a bunch of bicycles, and you all ride downhill (we still may do that again if it's still available and the weather is good - it was a hoot). -
Yeah, not sure that's the choice I'd make in Nassau. https://cruiseradio.net/tourists-warned-of-a-dangerous-threat-in-the-bahamas/

Unlimited Dining Package or Ultimate Dining Package
SpeedNoodles replied to Baked Alaska's topic in Royal Caribbean Dining
I think we're still waiting on a field report from someone who's purchased the Unlimited since it came out. -
I'm far more likely to forget our anniversary than my husband is (forgot to take our 25th wedding anniversary off from work this week - he did not forget), and we usually forget birthdays. But forgetting to pay off the cruise in time .... unacceptable!!

Ok seriously the cruise planner sales make no sense!
SpeedNoodles replied to mom2mybugs's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I pretty much check everything daily (check to see if my booked cruises have gone down in price, check all cruise planner purchases). But I have time to do that. Frankly, it's one of the only things that keep me awake at 4am at work ? . It's good to have a hobby? -
Salmon fishing excursion in Skagway
SpeedNoodles replied to SpeedNoodles's topic in Shore Excursions
The wildlife excursions are crazy expensive with him. I threw all kinds of options out to my DH, and he just wants to hang out on the ship and tool around the bustling metropolis of Skagway. We know the people who own Skagway Brewery, so we'll probably go visit them for a bit. -
Salmon fishing excursion in Skagway
SpeedNoodles replied to SpeedNoodles's topic in Shore Excursions
Well, the 2019 King Salmon season is catch and release only, so this entire thread has become moot. He's not interested in catch and release. Looks like we'll be spending the day on the ship (not the worst thing in the world!) -
Another great place to do research is TripAdvisor.com
