This is great information.. Please let us know how the B2B portion goes.. My wife and I are booked on Harmony for a B2B next year.. I'd love to hear your experience..

It happened to me over the weekend.. I called royal directly and all they asked me for was my reservation number..

We had an amazing time on Empress.. I’d say yes!

We couldn't get the same room.. but we have the one next door.. ughh.. I don't want to stress about this.. but my mind is screaming what if's.. Im former Army and want everything to go as smooth as possible lol

You will be given detailed instructions a couple of days prior to the end of the first leg of your cruise explaining what to do, what to bring, where and what time to meet on TAD.

Forgive me, but what's TAD?

Wow.. You all are making me feel a lot better about this.. Now its time to worry about Laundry lol.. Take an Uber to a Laundromat in Orlando? lol

Thanks Everyone!

Well.. we booked it.. We’ll board Harmony on September 8th 2019, and spend the next 14 nights on her.. Western itinerary first.. Then the Eastern itinerary.. I hope I didn’t bite off more than I could chew lol

It’s no big deal. You just pack everything in your luggage except what’s hanging in the closet and the steward will move it for you.

Awesome! Thanks!

I just looked into it.. We are on Harmony next September.. I can’t book the same cabin the week before or the week after.. The same floor is available with a cabin about 3 down from where we’re booked now.. I wish I’d have thought about this sooner lol

If you book a B2B do you have to get off the ship, with luggage, clear customs and then reboard? I’m asking for a friend lol

We used Blexie Havana tours while we were there.. Very affordable! 6 hours walking and riding in a classic car was 130 CUC for the two of us.. If we ever go back I'll go with them again.. You can find him on FB

My wife and I did the round trip out of Seattle in July of 2016.. we had an absolute blast! Alaska is beautiful.. pack for 4 seasons..

I wore shorts and T-shirts most of the time, but it does get chilly at night..

We may go back in 2020

You do not have to make reservations on Empress.. My wife and I walked right in to any show we wanted.. Its a very informal cruise.. :)

Yes, it is a manatee and there is more than one. Last time I was there, there were four manatees.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I’ll be booking that excursion.. I’ve wanted to swim with a manatee since I was a kid

Is that a Manatee in cozumel?

My DW and I agonized over our next cruise.. I wanted Harmony, she wanted another ship.. While she was out of town I booked Harmony with this itinerary.. Looking forward to sailing and DW is too lol

I think they should give everyone a deluxe drink package for the trouble they have caused.. lol

The most interesting has to be our last cruise on Empress back in March.. Im up on the pool deck having a smoke and a cocktail when a woman complimented me on my shirt (best A*****e husband ever) so we started making small talk.. As it turns out, they were from my hometown and I used to work with one of their sons when we were teenagers. I hadn't seen them in almost 30 years.. OMG this globe we live on is large.. yet it becomes tiny at certain points..

From that night on.. we had dinner together every night and now.. We try to get together for dinner at least once a month..

I tried to get it.. but I must not have read the terms.. We don't sail till September of 2019

I'm loving your Review.. Even though we don't sail on her till September 8, 2019.. Its fun to be teased with all the cool stuff on this ship..

Thanks for the information, very informative. Do you remember the name of the square where Castro made his speeches or where it was (how close to the ship). :cool::D

Plaza De Revelucion IIRC (pardon the spelling) lol

I cruised in March. There are no adult only areas on this ship

We were on deck 7 and had no issues at all..
