lol. 😁 thanks!

We leave in the morning for our cruise on Sunday. Staying in the Woodlands overnight and on to Galveston Sunday a.m. Is there flooding in Galveston......will we have problems getting to the port on Sunday? Thanks again for your help.

One adult in cabin doesn't drink alcohol. Can we purchase one Drink Pkg and one Refreshment Pkg? Can we do it online or do we have to call our TA? Also, does the Refreshment Pkg offer lattes, capachinos, etc? It says "premium" coffees but is that just a better brand of coffee than you get without a package? Hope this makes sense.....thanks.

Hi, what is the best route into the RC terminal? Thank you.

Hi, we have a large group going on the Harmony next month. I see that there are only 2 ships in port that day (Harmony & Carnival). Some of the group haven't made any reservations for parking. Since they aren't planning to board until early afternoon, their grandma (me) is concerned they'll show up an hour or so ahead and won't be able to find a parking spot. Any advice I can "quote" from veteran Galveston cruisers??? Thanks!

Hi, if we purchase a couple bottles of wine in advance, will we be able to take them to the DR or will there be a charge? Thanks.

Hi all. We have a large group going on Harmony next month. Some will have internet package, others not. How do I message/text my family members on board ship. We all have cell phones. Thanks. Sorry if this question has been asked a million times. 🏖️

So, are the taxis running back and forth all day? Don't want to be ready to go back to the ship and can't get a taxi. Thanks.

😄 Thanks again.

Thank you. I assume there is a charge for this......

What do they have for breakfast? Thanks.

Zipped thru the previous pages, only found one martini. Hopefully, some of you veteran cruisers out there can tell me where they make the best martinis on the Harmony... 🍸 Cheers!

Where can I get different martini's on Harmony like the martini bar on Celebrity (lemon drop, cucumber martini, etc.)? Thanks all.

Good point and I agree with you! Someone in my group asked the question so I thought I'd try to find out.

I'm wondering....we booked our cruise (group of 14) early part of last year. Gratuities were stated as $16pp/pd. Gratuities have since gone up to $18pp/pd. Final confirmation has a paragraph that indicates if you booked before 11/11/23 we keep the same $16 rate "provided it is paid in advance at least 4-5 days prior to departure. These amounts can be adjusted onboard." Altho in 50+ cruises I've never had to remove any gratuities, I think I can assume you can remove the tips if you feel it's necessary? Would you interpret this as I am? Thanks all.

Thanks everyone! We've made a reservation at the brand new Hampton Inn-Shenandoah at the Woodlands. We can leave Allen around 9am, have a nice lunch somewhere and then check in at the hotel. Thank you Dan for the directions....I'll pass on to our son who'll be driving. Grandma will be much more relaxed than that long drive all the way to Galveston on day of the cruise, with little room for anything unexpected. I am a scardy-cat backseat driver these days. We're celebrating our 65th wedding anniversary this week so you get the picture 😀 Anyone have any recommendations for lunch near the hotel?

Hi, we have a large family group on the Harmony of the Seas in June. Can't seem to get everyone to pick something to do in Roatan. One couple just wants to go to the beach for a couple hours. Are there options you can make at the pier after you get off the ship? Thanks!

We are between Plano and McKinney. Now I'm thinking the drive might be more "hectic" on Saturday than just going down early Sunday and avoiding trucks, landscapers, etc. I forgot to mention I am a Nervous Nilly in the car and will be more so at speeds of 80mph. Our son will drive but I'm a terrible backseat driver. Just kicking some ideas around before I approach him with my "ideas." 😅

Hi, we are joining our large family group on the Harmony this summer. It's too long of a drive for me in one day (we're in our mid-80's). Where would you recommend we stay overnight and have an easier drive into Galveston on cruise day. Thanks for any help you offer. 😄

Just to be sure I understand.... If I have 4 vouchers, I can only get one bottle of wine at a discount for the entire cruise? Thank you.

Hi, can I bring more than 1 bottle of wine onboard with the full understanding that I'll pay a coverage fee for the extras? and if so, what is the coverage fee? Thanks so much.

I'm an early (very) bird...so I can get coffee in the Lounge anytime? Thanks for your quick answer.

Quick Question: what time does the Lounge generally open each morning? Thks.

Can I use my drink vouchers for wine in the DR?

We have cabins on deck 9. Where on deck 9 is the coffee?
