Everyone has stated that upgrades are available.
But if the higher class cabin is CHEAPER than you paid, you can get the cabin, but NO refund or OBC.
That's not true. A fellow cruiser also called for the upgrade. She was willing to pay up to $700 more for the upgrade and she was denied. The same day I called. They currently have about 10 Jr. suites available but she was denied an upgrade.

OK solo cruisers...... Although I have never cruised solo, I plan on it. My husband is just fine cruising once every two years, I have so save up personal days. Since I want to cruise more, I plan on cruising solo.
Let's all cruise solo but together, who's in?

We cruise Dec 16th. Final payment was made by their due date. We had a D1 balcony, saw a Jr suite was only 250 more, I called and got the upgrade.

Yeah...that’s a 7-nighter...returns on December 23...those cruises that end in the week before Christmas or leave during the week after New Years are often significantly lower priced since school is either not yet out for Winter Break or the cruise will last until after school is back in session. Hence, the demand goes way down...
Yep and fewer kids.

I just upgraded our balcony on the 12/16 sailing of the Harmony to a JS for $250 total. Keep watching the prices, you never know.

The chairs are a combination chair and fold down lounger. We were on the Harmony in JS 8240 and the balcony is more than sufficient for the loungers.
I have heard there will be two chairs with a foot rest and i also heard there will be those plus a full lounger, which is correct?
-
2 normal patio chairs and a small table. No loungers, unless you have some sort of "extended" balcony configuration. Even tho a JS has a wider balcony than a standard cabin, it's no deeper, so a lounger simply won't fit.
I am mostly on the hump, some of the balcony is not but the majority is. If there is a deck chair, I will be ecstatic!!!!!
-
What kind of chairs will there be on the balcony. After my last fiasco of asking for a "lounge" chair and getting a small swivel chair from a lounge, I am wondering will there be a deck chair?
-
Thanks. Still excited for the JS, it's our first but something tells it won't be our last.

That bumped us to emerald status, will be be Emerald after the cruise or on the cruise. The only reason I care is the private area during disembark.

Correction, I thought the price was $250 per person but it was total. We did it.

We are cruising Dec 2017 on the harmony. For about $500 total, we can upgrade to a junior. We purchased one drink/internet combo package. We also purchased the bogo specialty restaurants for the first 2 nights. Is this upgrade worth it, what other perks will we get? TIA

No one should have a note 7 and they defiantly don't have a working note 7 anymore, if they have one at all.

Ice show said “what the Hell” which isn’t appropriate for young children.

Having 4 kids (16, 15, 12 and 8) this subject is near and dear to my heart. Short answer is YES I would depending on the child. Long answer is that it gets VERY difficult for most kinds once they hit HS to be able to do this and keep up. I would encourage you to do it now before you get to that point because you very well may have a child (like I do) that absolutely does not want to fall behind.
As an aside, I live in an area in PA that is loaded with prestigious private schools with tuition around 30-40K per year. My girls skate with many of these girls so we get a window into their educations, policies etc. They ENCOURAGE you to take your child out of school for family vacations/experiences. They value the teaching moments that almost always present themselves. They do not have the 10 day absence rule that requires you to provide a doctors note if you go above that number of days.
Last year my 8 year old had pneumonia and was out for 5 days--for just ONE illness. Of course he got the stomach bug 3 times...you see where we are going here. So I got the lovely letter from the state and I called the school. The principal was very nice and said to disregard the letter. The only reason they enforce the policy is because of MONEY. Apparently the schools get money based on number of kids in school and number of days? I don't know...my head exploded at that point. Ridiculous.
So I went off on a tangent :) Enjoy your vacation...while you still can lol
Andrew I teach in PA, near all of the private schools that you mention. Schools do not get money for student based on attendance. School attendance is the law and thus must be followed, that's why you received thise letters, very odd that you got one from the state. Private schools are subject to the same laws as public schools. Private schools cater to those who pay their expensive tuition which includes taking your kids out of school whenever you want.

As an elementary school teacher let me first say that elementary is just as important as middle and high school. Taking your kids out of school makes more work for the teacher. In some districts, not mine, the teacher will have give give all of the missing work (extra work), the teacher will then have to grade all of the work (extra work) and then the teacher might have to remediate the kids on what they are struggle with (extra work that might not have needed to be done if they didn't miss the week). Already over worked teachers having to do more work. Your decision to pull your kids out does not just impact you and your child.

Your contract states that itineraries can be changed. I highly doubt you will win this.

We did it and didn't drop out luggage w the porters. But it was extremely easy, there were even people at the elevators checking us in.

I have had my gallbladder out. It was outpatient surgery and after two days of rest I was back to normal. I would take the cruise and use it as a relaxation cruise.
