Forward Cabin Harmony of the Seas

[panzafit]

I have booked rooms for our cruise June 30-July7th, 2019. I'm a little concerned about the rooms the TA put my daughter and her friend in. The rest of us have balcony rooms and are on deck 8 near aft elevator, which is perfect for me.

 

We did an interior room for my daughter and friend. They are in 8549. I'm concerned with the motion that far forward. It will be both of their birthdays while we are on this cruise and I would hate for them to both get sea sick due to cabin location. The cost to move them more mid ship is outrageous but I can always monitor price and if it drops move them but would prefer not to as this has already cost a pretty penny already.

Is staying in the forward part of the ship really as bad as everyone tells me it is?

We stay in 7402 forward on Harmony a few weeks ago. The motion was noticeable at times, but not too bad. I rarely get motion sick, however my wife does. She had trouble the first day, but Dramamine took care of it. As long as the weather isn't bad, I'd expect it to be fine. IMO, with it being such a large ship, the movement is less intense.
