The captain was Johnny Faevelen. When he gave his first announcement I thought his name was Captain Johnny Fabulous. He was that from then on. He was great!

That water slide in the dark was rough! Although I did slide right through it, once was enough for me. The other one was quite as bad, however I did get stuck in the funnel.

I have to agree on the elevators. We mostly used the stairs. While in a crowded elevator one day a disabled man came in using a walker for assistance. The woman behind me, in her 60's and very able bodied, made an audible sigh of disgust when he came in and took up a lot of room. I wanted to say to her, lady, if anyone should be in here it's him.

I also was on The Harmony. I enjoyed The L and M show. You both look really young to have been married for 30 years. I hope my husband and I look as good when we hit the 30 year mark.
You are so sweet! My youngest (daughter) gets really upset when people tell her she looks like she's 16 (she is 23). I tell her she will appreciate it when she is older like me. You've made my night!

We were couple #2. My husband was greeted several times around the ship as "Dumbo" after that show. lol

Just thought of another bit of info I forgot. I remember reading a review where a lady said they used the Ultimate Abyss as their "quick way home" from the upper decks to her cabin on deck seven. What she didn't say, as she might not have known, was you have to have your shoulders covered to use the slide. While I mostly wear sleeveless shirts and dresses on vacation, this was a surprise. Our party of six walked up to use it, only to find out two of us couldn't. Not a big deal, but would have been nice to know beforehand.

Any of the new ports have jet skiing? I tend to like booking outside of RCCL . We sail Harmony Dec 2.
Since our itinerary was altered due to Hurricane Maria, you might not have the same one we did. We had Cozumel, Costa Maya and Nassau. We didn't participate in that, nor did I see any out in the water where we were. If your cruise does to Labadee like ours was supposed to, I believe you can jet ski there.

Do you have anymore to say about the Love and Marriage show, given that you were contestants? I loved it on Harmony in July.
We had a different Cruise Director each week, which helped keep things fresh, but it was definitely a highlight of both sailings.
Bobby Brown was the cruise director and he did a great job on the Love and Marriage Show. I think we had about 9 couples "audition" for the two slots between the oldest married couple and the newest. Our sound proof booth was just a crew room in the back of the stage. It was nice to chat with all the ladies while waiting our turn on stage. The crew member who came back with us said the show was really "all us" and just have fun with it. We were very honest (as I believe the others were). So honest my kids now know things they wish they didn't. LOL. I really think a cruise director and make or break a show like this. Bobby was good about "pulling out" some information from some couples. However, fun couples make it great as well.

The ship-Fantastic! So many things to do. We didn't even have the opportunity to do everything.
Shows-Fine Line was great. I couldn't follow the story line but you really didn't need to.
Columbus-A little slow but had a hilarious finish. We almost left early to make it to the Quest show. So glad we didn't.
Headliner-Comedian/Juggler-I was really disappointed in this one, especially since it was the Headliner show.
Quest-Hilarious as usual.
Ice Show-It was good, not great. Our adult children enjoyed it much more than we did.
Love and Marriage Show-We enjoyed it a lot, partly because we were part of it. We didn't win but had a blast! I think my adult kids might have been scarred by our answers though.
Food-We mostly ate in the main dining room for dinner. Robert and Reniel from table 631 were our servers and they were fantastic! Enjoyed the entrees. Order the carrot cake. It was delicious. Loved Park Cafe. I thought the banana bread was just okay, unlike others on this board. Every time we went to the Windjammer it was packed. It was a struggle finding a table each time. Granted we were a party of 6, but we were willing to split up and couldn't even find tables for four or two very often. We didn't do any specialty restaurants.
Staff-Every RCI person we came in contact with was great.
Room-Rosa on deck 7 was wonderful! She kept our stateroom so clean and tidy and got us anything we needed. Will all our stateroom attendants in the past have been great, Rosa was definitely the best so far. I have to say the location on deck 7 was great. One deck up for morning coffee at Park Cafe. One deck down for hot dogs on the boardwalk. Two decks down for the Promenade.
Do the Abyss. Do the water slides. Do get your Long Island Ice Teas from the pool bars instead of Boot and Bonnet. Don't miss the bionic bar. Do make your own pizza at Sorrentos.
Feel free to ask any questions!

That's what we are going to do in a couple of weeks. I figure if they are going to charge me, the six of us are going to get a heck of a spread one night. I love that you call it a room service party. I'm going to steal that!

I was on the allure last year and docked right at San Juan. But because of my excursion, the company I am using said to call and double check with the harmony ship. Like I said I was told pan am after the rep spending some time researching for me. Will definitely inform you all on my return June 10 th
Looks like Renza forgot to update on pier. :rolleyes:
-
Has anyone done this yet? We are considering it too but would like to hear some feedback.
-
There isn't a great way to do this. The best way is to use the UK site - you CAN search by specific cabin there, but first you have to select the sailing. It's a bit of a pain, but probably the only option, so just search sailings/ships until you find the cabin you really want is available. Once you know the sailing you want where the cabin is available, call a Travel Agent or Royal Caribbean to book that specific cabin.
I agree. The UK site is the best way to do it.

This is great news. I'm booked on deck seven in a few weeks. I love knowing little "secrets" ahead of time.
-
Yes, please update if you find out. I will be on that sailing too!
-
I logged into my Discover account and didn't see it. Where do I need to look to find it?
-
You will be fine. In May we flew to CDG and had a connection to Naples. Our layover was 50 minutes! We made it. Two hours is plenty of time.

I've been reading that on Harmony they will put your seapass card outside your door on arrival day...
When I was doing online check-in I saw the option to upload a photo of yourself to speed up check-in. My family chose not to do this and to get the pictures done the traditional way at the terminal.
My question is that if they are putting the sea pass cards outside the door will my photo at the cruise terminal make it onto the card? Or am I going to have to wait in line at guest services on the 1st day to make sure it is loaded on (huge lines that day :( lol)
I did the same thing as you. I checked in without taking pictures of everyone. I figured I will just do it at the pier.

Harmony of the Seas

This is a fantastic video. I'm going to watch the Harmony of the Seas one next since that's the ship I will be taking.

They are now allowing people to sign up for C&A before their first cruise. No perks, but in the past they have required C&A membership to book onboard.
Thanks! I didn't know that. I will have the new cruisers who are joining us to sign up before the cruise.

I made a reservation last month for 2018 to Alaska. Last night I added Crown and Anchor number and my BOGO 50 off discount went away. I didn't make any other changes, I was just trying to see what my stateroom number was. Before I call is this a software glitch? I have never sailed on RC and added the C&A membership after my reservation was made and $250 deposit was paid.
Just curious, if you've never sailed RC before, how can you have a C&A number? I thought you only got that after you completed your first cruise.

I just did my online check in yesterday. It would not work when I used Google Chrome but it did work when I used Internet Explorer.

Same on Harmony, end of May
Do you remember what day is was offered on Harmony?
