santley88 Posted August 22, 2022 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 Long time lurker, first time poster  Just booked my second cruise ever. 7-day cruise Caribbean/Perfect Day. My first was Freedom of the Seas this past January. Looking forward to it. I'll be solo cruising it. Would be interested to hear of other solo cruisers!

KevinJ Posted November 15, 2022 Report Share Posted November 15, 2022 My son and I booked this when our Voyager cruise got switched to Adventure. We're also on the 27th. So I'm sort of solo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DublinFC Posted January 13, 2023 Report Share Posted January 13, 2023 We booked this cruise back in Aug of 22, originally for Dec of 2020..... We are all looking forward to finally getting back on a ship.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DublinFC Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 Checking is coming soon! Couple of questions. When we check in on the app do we need to have pictures ready to upload when checking in? Also, does anyone know if check-in starts right at midnight when the day changes from the 4th to the 5th or is it more like 6am on the 5th? I am just trying to be ready when it is time for check-in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinJ Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 Check in will open at about 12:01am, so late night the 4th or early am the 5th depending on how you want to look at it. Using the app you can just select a boarding time and then do everything else later. We’re sometimes had trouble with check in not opening in the app right away, and have had to use the website.

Good to know about the app giving you issues. I prefer to use a computer for most anything over an app or mobile site.  WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinJ Posted March 25, 2023 Report Share Posted March 25, 2023 With the website check in you have to load a bunch of your data before you get to the page where you select your boarding time. With the app you can go straight to selecting the boarding time and then do everything else later. My son did our check in for our last cruise and for some reason he used the website and he only had my travel documents so checked me in for a 10:30 time. When I got up a 7am I noticed this and by then all I could get him and my wife was 11:30, I think he assumed that once he selected my boarding time it would apply to all three of us. So as I've seen sometimes the website is available right away but the app lags behind. DublinFC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same, I saw it this morning and grabbed everything before teaching my classes. Jumped on here to help pass on the good news. I thought it was going to open 30 days prior to sailing. I am glad I have been checking as much as I have. I didnt want us to miss out on the shows.

DublinFC Posted March 30, 2023 Report Share Posted March 30, 2023 Does anyone know if there more onboard activities load for pre-booking? Like the flowrider or whatever else that could be booked early? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zennily Posted March 31, 2023 Report Share Posted March 31, 2023 Tried to reserve entertainment this morning, not sure it was successful, as I didn’t get a confirmation email.  Was I to expect an email? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinJ Posted April 1, 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2023 You won't get an email. You should see your reservations in the app when you look in My Calendar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I received emails confirming all of my reservations.  I didnt book them all at once so I ended up with 4 separate emails, newbie mistake lol. I was excited to see the shows open for reservations and grabbed seats for Grease 1st then worked on the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinJ Posted April 3, 2023 Report Share Posted April 3, 2023 Ah, my son actually made all our reservations so he would have gotten the emails, I just checked the calendar in the app to make sure I was OK with what he scheduled. We booked everything for this cruise and the next of our B2B. DublinFC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DublinFC Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 Just wondering if signing up for the Flowrider can be done from the Cruise Planner or is that something we book when we get on the ship? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DublinFC Posted April 24, 2023 Report Share Posted April 24, 2023 Anyone getting their cruise documents? We have 2 reservations linked. 1 reservations received cruise docs last week. 1 reservation has not. Just wondering if there might be something going on with one of our reservations.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinJ Posted April 27, 2023 Report Share Posted April 27, 2023 I always get a Goombay Smash in the Solarium. We like to hang out there waiting for cabins, grab some lunch in the Bistro and avoid the crowds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to look up that drink, sounds amazing. I am torn on what to start it off with. Im more of a beer drinker, but was thinking of a Manhattan or something from the pub to start things off.  I think we are going to be hitting one of the quick grab and go places for lunch. Just depends on how fast we get on the ship and if we can get a spot in the WJ easily (doubtful). We are wanting to hit the pools sooner than later before everyone is there.

KevinJ Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 I almost never do the WJ, the place just annoys me with the crowds. The ship is always a mess the first day, which is why we hide out in the Solarium. My son will usually hit the hot tub there. This is our first time on Harmony and it'll be interesting seeing an original Oasis again. I was on Oasis in 2016. Then the next time was 2021 so got to see the before and after. We're working our way through all the Oasis class ships. After Harmony we have Symphony for a transatlantic. Then Allure for a 4 and 3 back to back. Did Wonder last year and again this year. Keeping an eye out for Utopia's schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinJ Posted May 18, 2023 Report Share Posted May 18, 2023 10am flight from Boston to Fort Lauderdale tomorrow, we're taking SAS transport from our Hotel to the port Saturday morning for our 10:30 boarding time. Going through all the last minute packing checks. I'll probably check all my documents a dozen times between now and boarding!
