Really enjoyed both your recent reviews and thank you for sharing your journey and thoughts! You and your sister seem similar to my traveling friend and I; positive thinkers and mellow. Enjoy the moments and the views. Thanks again!

Thank you for this wonderful review and insight. Just starting to plan a river cruise and have decided on Avalon and research has begun. Thanks again!

We cruised out of Miami 2x in the last year and found it very easy and found great airfare, although now that might have changed as most airfare has skyrocketed. I just don't like an hour drive to the port each way, again, more money and less time vacationing. Uber in Miami from port to airport cost me $25 (with tip) in September for 3 people and 5 suitcases and took, no exaggeration, 11 minutes door to door. I also think it is a much prettier sail away. I cruise to relax and am not a drinker or partier. Mostly I sit by a pool and read while my daughter meets friends and has fun. She loves a flowrider. We enjoy lunches and dinner together. We do love Grease so that would be fun! We could never afford a suite so the adult area sounds amazing on Wonder but wouldn't be applicable to me. I love the adult only areas on Disney boats as they do have their own pool and coffee lounge with yummy treats. We will try Harmony. Of course, my daughter (and I) are very interested in Icon but will wait a year or so for the kinks to work out and take advantage of hopefully cheaper fares on other boats until then, cruising is our favorite!

Thank you everyone, I was leaning Harmony and input really helped. The $300 savings plus not having to go to Port Canaveral from MCO were the advantages I saw, glad to hear ships are similar.

I tried to search this forum but either my browser was not cooperating or I just couldn't find what I was looking for. I am considering booking a last minute cruise for the beginning of summer. We really want to try one of Royal's big ships and the best that meets our needs is either Harmony or Wonder, same itinerary at the end of May. One leaves out of Port Canaveral, one Miami. We have cruised out of Miami 2x in the last year , so are comfortable with that port and have prev cruised out of Port Canaveral as well. The Harmony cruise is about $300 cheaper. This cruise is just my daughter and I , she is finishing 8th grade. I looked at an article comparing the 2 ships and it looks to me like most of the upgrades on WOS wouldn't matter much to us bc we wont be in a suite or anything? Would love to hear any and all opinions and input from those who have been on one or the other. Thank you so much!
