ColoradoMomof3 Posted February 19, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 19, 2018 We are having such a hard time deciding between Liberty to Roatan/costa maya/Cozumel out of Galveston or Harmony to st Maarten/ Puerto Rico/Haiti out of ft lauderdale - both in October. We are 3 families - grandparents and 2 families with 5 kids total ranging from 5 years to 13 years. We will be flying from Colorado, direct flight to either port. Liberty leaves on a Sunday and Harmony leaves on Saturday. It will be nice to be home Saturday and have a day to recover, on the flip side looking at flights we might have to take part of Friday off work if we do Harmony. We aren't planning to do major shore excursions, but rather either leave for just a few hours or stay on the boat to enjoy all the activities with fewer crowds. (But are lines even an issue for water slides. Flow rider, etc?) What should I take into consideration to make this decision? I've heard Galveston doesn't go as smoothly as ft lauderdale, so maybe that is a factor? Thanks for your advice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted February 19, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I would favor Harmony, both for as easier fly-in experience and more bells & whistles on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordnlkon Posted February 19, 2018 #3 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I would favor Harmony, both for as easier fly-in experience and more bells & whistles on the ship. This plus we just like the eastern Caribbean islands so much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilBlackDress Posted February 19, 2018 #4 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I enjoyed both ships for different reasons... But I would recommend Harmony, especially with children. ' Been to all the ports and there is something for everyone no matter what itinerary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoMomof3 Posted February 19, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Thank you! What in particular about the ports do you like better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mailmama Posted February 19, 2018 #6 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Easy peasy! Go on the Harmony! Newer, more activities. We never had a single line to deal with except at the Windjammer. Just went to another breakfast spot instead. Love the update design of the rooms, especially! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoMomof3 Posted February 19, 2018 Author #7 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Looks like Harmony will cost us $1500 more, ouch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
