Bee-rad Posted January 10, 2020 Report Share Posted January 10, 2020 Hello, We are a family of four (Me, wife, 13yo son and 15yo son) sailing on the HOTS this summer. I have done a ton of reading on how to check in and board with the app, but I do have a question. I read that once we check in we will have electronic Set Sail passes on my phone for the four of us which will (might) expedite boarding. I also read that once on board our physical Set Sail passes will be be waiting at our room once it's ready. If that is all true, then how would we split up when we got on board and still be able to charge things? I give my kids access to our main account and they can use it for whatever, and the wife and I would like to get busy drinking! Can I purchase the little bracelets with the electronic Set Sail passes? Can I transfer the electronic Set Sail passes to my family members to use on their app? We've sailed a few time on RC, but haven't been able to do the app check in thing yet. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakerette Posted January 10, 2020 Report Share Posted January 10, 2020 Yes, Harmony does support the wow bands and you can purchase them once onboard. Then you, your wife, & kids can split up and charge things to their Seapass account. Bee-rad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshleyDillo Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 Just for ease you may want to print the passes until you get to the room where you will have your SeaPass cards waiting. But yes you can buy the WOW bands when you board. Everyone should also be able to log into the app and get their own SetSail passes if needed.

No, your SeaPass cards will be waiting in your room. You don't need your Set Sail Pass beyond boarding. 18 hours ago, Bee-rad said: If that is all true, then how would we split up when we got on board and still be able to charge things? Your SetSail Pass can be used to charge things. Just show it to the waiter/bartender. Bee-rad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bee-rad Posted January 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 Thank you Matt. I didn’t realize there was a difference between a Set Sail pass and a Sea Pass once in board. I thought they were the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ditchdoc Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 The set sail is just the check in paperwork. If you have completed all the online check in (I think photos, passport info, CC info etc) and printed the set sail paper and/or downloaded the app which should the set sail info for everyone...that is all you need. When we boarded, we approached a lady I thought was going to direct us to one of the many check in lines. Instead, she scanned set sail pass, took our picture (facial recognition I think) and said we were done and could board. Check in too all of 30 seconds. We were on board early, about 10:30. Doors to the room hallways were closed until 1pm. At one, they opened, we walked to the room, our bags were at the open door to the room. The Seapass card you will use for the rest of the cruise is in the room for each person. Bee-rad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are concerned about the time between when you board and when you can get in your room, you can take pictures of each of the passes and send to that person so they have their boarding pass with them until they get in the room.

Bee-rad Posted January 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 Ditchdoc and Annette...thank you both! Totally helps. Great idea about sending their passes to them until room is ready. Thanks everyone! Only 200 more days to go WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
