  1. From what i can see, Harmony will be in St Thomas the 13th, and oasis will be in Labadee.  Allure would be transiting between Nassau and Cozumel.

     

    However...

     

    As RBRSKI mentioned, the 17th/18th seems possible, as

     

    Oasis is in Canaveral the 18th, so coming up the Florida coast the 17th

    Allure is in Miami the 18th, coming up the Florida coast the 17th

    Harmony is in Ft. Lauderdale the 18th, coming up the Florida coast the 17th

    Symphony is in Miami the 17th.  

     

    Fingers crossed???

     

     

  2. Ill be boarding Serenade day after Thanksgiving.  If nothing is open on 17th St I'll just grab a bite at the hotel.  

     

    Did that 9 nite Navi sailing last April and it was a blast.will do it again in January!  Last Curacao visit I did the caves and city walking tour.  Caves we're ok... Natural Bridge Caverns in San Marcos was much better, but the city tour was very nice.  Wilemstead is very pedestrian friendly.  After it was over I wandered on my own for a few more hours and found a great little outdoor place for lunch.  The walk back to the pier was great as well, with the floating bridge and much more to see.  

    January I'm just going to walk to town and hang out.

    While I love the big ships, I think the Radiance class is the most elegant of all the Royal ship classes.    So much beautiful glass and a view of the ocean from nearly everywhere.  The halls are VERY narrow but that's b/c the ship itself is narrow, by design.  It's been some time since I've sailed on a Radiance class ship.  I need to get back there !

    They really are the best!  Classic, old-style cruising: connect with the sea...

     

  4. Did it back in '13.  Great time, no complaints.  Took the time to wander away from the lagoon and explore the undeveloped part of the island...really reminded me of what Cococay was in the old days!

     

    They run a few tours on the island, the dolphin encounter is there and you can actually get close enough to watch while on the beach break.

     

    Lunch was about a 6/10.  kept me going till I got back to Nassau but nothing note-worthy.  

     

    Return boats start running in the afternoon and you could take Any one you like, as they all went back to the pier.

     

     

  5. Yes, the shuttle to town is available, but you wait a long time waiting for it to fill up.

     

    Its only about 75 steps from the shuttle place to the main gates of the port complex.  If you walk out the gates (unlike some other places, this is PERFECTLY SAFE), there are plenty of taxis waiting.  They are not allowed to come into the port complex so they wait right outside the gate.  It is/was $2 per person to go to town, and $2 for the return trip.  

    Walk out, grab a cab, go to town, enjoy!

    I will have to look up native choice.   We will be in Costa Maya and my husband will be doing chacchoben.  When i went we did the rc tour because we were first timers and panicked about getting back to the ship.   Does native choice run on time and not too tight to get back?   My husband wouldn't do wrk with that!   Jane

    When I used them I still had a few hours to kick back in town and relax before heading back to the pier.

    Are there any electrical outlets in any of the cabin bathrooms on board? 

    I've read conflicting reports.

    There is one in the bathroom labeled "Shaver Only" or Razor Only" and had a picture of a guy shaving (sort of).  This outlet is usually dual voltage (you can get 110 or 220 from it) and has a very low amperage capacity (usually 250mA or less).  Not usable for much these days unless you have a very old style plug in shaver.  In theory you may get a low powered phone charger to use it but much more than that will trip its breaker.  Some ships tie these to the lights in the bathroom also, so no light, no outlet.

     

     

  8. After her drydock, there will be a 4nt, 7nt, then 10nt.  I'll be on the 10 so I've been curious about this too.  

     

    As far as I can tell it will be mostly a marine maintenance drydock (required every 5 years) with no major changes to the hotel side except general repairs and replacements.    

     

    I did 11 on her last November and it was a blast.  Radiance class has always been my favorite ;)
