rm1247 Posted January 31, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 31, 2018 We'll be sailing on Anthem soon in a regular balcony cabin. I'm wondering if we can swap our Quantum WOWbands (for free) for Anthem WOWbands or if we'll have to pay for the new ones. Anyone have experience with this?

Yes, supposedly they will either reprogram your bands, or swap them for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rm1247 Posted January 31, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Yes, supposedly they will either reprogram your bands, or swap them for free. That's what I'm hoping they'll do. I saw one report where they wouldn't trade them, but maybe that was just an isolated incident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanobieFan Posted January 31, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Don't they have your muster station printed on them? That makes me think they would NOT let you reuse one, if you weren't booked in the same room. Although maybe the option of switching them out? but that seems useless to the company as I highly doubt they'd reuse the band (Disney sure doesn't!)

CTBabyB00mer Posted January 31, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 31, 2018 We were just on B2B in Dec and we were able to swap out our Harmony bands for the appropriate life boat station ones on Anthem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ticketsunlimited Posted January 31, 2018 #7 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Do you get "free" wow bands if you are in a spa junior suite? If not we will just bring our Harmony bands and see what they offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaAtlCruiser Posted February 1, 2018 #9 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I first got a WOW band on Anthem and when I went on Harmony Dec 2016, I was able to swap it. But when I was just on Oasis in Oct 2017 they would not let me swap so I bought a new one. I may try on my upcoming Symphony sailing to see if I can swap it - or I may just buy a new one since it is under $5.00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only these ships have them: Quantum, Anthem, Ovation, Harmony, Symphony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaAtlCruiser Posted February 1, 2018 #11 Share Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) No you didn't. They don't have/use wow bands on the Oasis. Only these ships have them: Quantum, Anthem, Ovation, Harmony, Symphony I stand corrected. It was my cruise on Anthem in August 2017 when I attempted to trade my Harmony band in. Sorry - too many cruises to keep the facts perfectly straight. But glad to have a fact checker to straighten me out :-) So to be exact... I got my Wowband on Anthem in March 2016. Traded it on Harmony in Dec 2016, attempted to trade that band on Anthem in Aug 2017 and it was a no go.

Sanz Posted February 1, 2018 #12 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Bought one on the Anthem in January 2016. Traded it in January 2017. Would not let us trade in January 2018.You might be able to have it reprogrammed if it is the same muster station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loudbmw Posted February 1, 2018 #13 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Just off the Anthem last week. We traded our old Wow bands for new ones with the correct muster station at guest services on day 2. No problem and it was free. I don't know if being Pinnacle helped. Lou 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clochette Posted February 1, 2018 #14 Share Posted February 1, 2018 We couldn’t reuse ours on the January 7th cruise. Sent from my iPad using Forums We were on the same cruise and were able to reuse our WOW bands from last year. We did have the same cabin and muster station.

Croozin Soozin Posted February 1, 2018 #19 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Thanks Bob!! Are they in the room with the cards or will we have to still obtain them ourselves? Dan Ours have always been in the cabin, but they haven't always worked. Be sure to check that they work to open your cabin door before relying on them.
