Who else is ready to watch her leave from her new home?? Hubs is so excited. He got up at 4:45 to watch her come into port!

I'll be excited when I get to watch her leave when I am on her in 3 weeks :)

We are onboard. The sail away from Port Everglades was beautiful with the all the spectators and tugs spraying water. The ship is absolutely beautiful. We loved the Oasis and Allure, we really love the Harmony. It feels like a step up from something familiar!

Can you find out when The Abyss slides are open? What times? Are they open daily, even in port days?

Yes very exciting.

It's like 10-6 and even on port days.

We are booked, but far out for 2018, and can't wait. How is Harmony different from Allure/Oasis?? (other than the Abyss slide...LOL). Very interested to hear your 'take' on Harmony!! Thanks in advance! :)

Buddylover-

 

 

-They took a phenomenal class of ships and seemingly made it better in almost every aspect. It feels like everything you love about Oasis and Allure, but updated improved upon in many cases.

 

-The interior design is essentially the floor plan of Oasis with the decor and features on Quantum. A total win-win.

 

-The ultimate abyss is a bit disappointing. It blocks a lot of the view from the boardwalk but is not exciting... Pretty slow and over hyped.

 

-Lots of complaints on Cruise Critic about the solarium on Harmony, but I much prefer it over Oasis. It is larger, the ceiling is more breathable than Oasis and allows a good breeze. We haven't missed the "bird bath" style pools ;).

 

-I expected more little differences since Harmony was built at another yard than the twins, but design wise, there are very few differences.

 

-Overall quality has seemed much more on par with the Royal Caribbean of 10+ years ago. I don't know whether or not that has anything to do with the premium price for this short sailing or it being the inaugural from Ft. Lauderdale.
