RobinL Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 On Harmony a couple weeks back... My family thought that the WOW bands were not so great as we expected so we wouldn't get again unless they were excepted for everything! They are perfect for getting in your room if your hands are full (just put your wrist up to door lock) and yes you can purchase things on the ship with it. But... you have to have your sea pass card to get on and off the ship AND they wanted the card when we went into the waterpark at coco cay too.

I wonder if things have changed?! We were on Harmony at CocoCay end of May, and had no problem entering the waterpark area multiple times with simply the Wow Band. We did have the seapass cards in our bags just in case, but it was no problem for us with using only the Wow bands... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fonemanbob Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 We will keep the sea pass cards. Thank you. Never lost one in 20 plus years. And the money saved allows us to get 3 specialty dinners and several cocktails. They are a novelty and a waste of your money. SAVE YOUR MONEY.

RTripp Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 Hi all, we did the once in a lifetime cruise on HOTS in June. As a newbie i had a difficult time finding the sizes of the wow band and seapAss. Uploaded photo, wow band ALL the way. Women’s clothing has absolutely NO pockets, let alone wearing a swimsuit and cover 60% of the vacation, NOWHERE to put tge pass. In addition to not digging through your entire sun bag to find a seapass to get in your room, you just scan your wrist for drinks at bars(there is a scanner right where you order), and at towel stations, when getting on / off ship and ALL over CocoCay. Worth every penny of the $4.95 get it the first day as mentionedat Boleros. Also, if you need to get into a second room you booked, have tgat room get the same color since no names on them. Hope this helps the first timers. GlowTheWeird 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ogalthorpe Haywood Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 We get the wow bands for the kids, it’s just easier for them. I don’t prefer taking it on and off to get a drink so I’ll stick with the card. I know it’s a muster thing but it would be nice if they were interchangeable between ships.

The Magic Bands have that rigid part at the top of the band that never sits well on my wrist, whereas the band of a WOWband fits like any normal watch band would. WOWbands feel much better to me. Drinking the kool aide . I think you may be the only to say the wow bands are more comfortable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be more precise, Matt's video of 21 June 19, which talks about five Harmony secrets, states that you can bring the WOW bands back and exchange them on your next cruise. Sorry I didn't state it accurately. So one would need to "swap" bands, not re-program them. Make sense? I am only passing on what was in the video...

SpeedNoodles Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 Both of us found the WOW bands to be perfectly comfortable and convenient when we were on Ovation last month. Unless I have a shirt with a collar (which I hate wearing) so that the lanyard doesn't sit directly on my neck, I might as well be wearing a sloth around my neck as much as a lanyard. I hate when they hang around my neck directly (don't get me wrong - LOVE sloths, don't wanna wear one 14 hours a day. Seriously, 30 minutes TOPS on the sloth scarf).

It's just Anthem. I've exchanged multiple wowbands on Harmony and Symphony with no issues. Not sure why the Anthem crew hasn't gotten the memo.

MuttMutt Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 I am wondering if these things will survive a couple atmosphere's of water pressure. Most of the ports I end up in the water and that would be a major advantage for me instead of carrying a dry bag I could just keep it on me. When I was in Jamaica the place I was staying at had a simple traditional key and it ended up going 98 feet under water with me without issue. Got back and told them they should frame that one since it was a very well traveled key. When I dive at home I generally lock my stuff in my pickup and then lock the keys in my toolbox and take the toolbox key with me while under water, only thing I worry about is losing it but it's a minor thing, I use a simple chain link to hold it onto my BCD.
