MONKEY20 Posted August 25, 2016 #1 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Hi, We got off Harmony last week. We were in Cabin 7101 deck 7 forward. We suffered from very bad vibrations in the stateroom when the ship was using its bow thrusters when coming into port early every morning. On some days in got so bad that my head was vibrating on my pillow. Has any one else suffered from this or was I just unlucky with my stateroom choice. We loved the ship but the cruise was not as relaxing as it should have been and we needed to catch up on our sleep when we got home. Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian I believe it's normal for a cruise ship to vibrate up front because of the Bow thrusters. I've experienced it also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_G Posted August 25, 2016 #3 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Haven't sailed Harmony yet but I can't say I'm surprised. I've felt it on other ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reedl Posted August 25, 2016 #4 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I was on the Allure a couple of years ago and experienced the same thing when docking as we were on the port side very much forward on deck 7. Since it only lasts a few minutes while docking, it was not something that worried me. Considering the amount of water those bow thrusters move, I can understand why there is that much vibration.

Lane1344 Posted August 25, 2016 #5 Share Posted August 25, 2016 We have just left the Harmony and we were midship 10229. We felt vibrating quite often but was very strong coming into cittavechia this morning. So much so it woke us up. Shame we can't relax and catch up on our sleep on the top deck in the sun instead of being at the airport [emoji45] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you can get a future cruise credit, how dare the captain use the bow thrusters when coming into port!!.....K.O.:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jovocrtt Posted August 25, 2016 #7 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I haven't felt that on any of the ships I have been on but one...that was Rhapsody. It was only in the dining area. I felt like my chair was sitting on a washing machine on the spin cycle. Someone I knew that sailed on the Splendour of the seas said she felt that in their cabin as well.

Rare steamboats Posted August 25, 2016 #9 Share Posted August 25, 2016 We´been on deck 9 close to the aft staircase and had no vibrations at all. That´s why I prefer aft to midship locations. steamboats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
