Biker19 Posted March 4, 2019 #226 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Just now, guidomerkns said: For those of us who will sailing in the future but aren’t ponying up for the deluxe drink package, can you check with the bars and see if and when they are selling beer cards or drink cards? Welcome to CC and coming out of lurk mode. Availability of the cards seem to vary by sailing and for Navigator may totally change when she starts doing short sailings.

cot427 Posted March 4, 2019 #227 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Thanks for all of the info, @EmilyJay I know you're just getting into the swing of things after the first couple days, but have you noticed anything about nighttime activities around the Lime and Coconut? DJ or live music? Or do they still keep the DJ in the Cosmopolitan Club? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmilyJay Posted March 4, 2019 Author #228 Share Posted March 4, 2019 @cot427 Not much goes on at the Lime & Coconut after 7pm as they show outdoor movies on the big screen at the pool each night. DJ moves to the Cosmopolitan Club or there is live music all over the ship during the evening/ late night. @guidomerkns No drink cards yet. Also if anyone is interested the Deluxe Drinks Package was $66 upon boarding. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they first announced and then thereafter advertised L&C, they mentioned it would be a night time venue with stuff going on all night, especially the deck 12 part of the bar. Maybe after a few days or sailings it will change! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't assume it would be every night though, so maybe they'll have a couple of nights with something going on out there... will need to wait and see as the rest of the week progresses I guess.

EmilyJay Posted March 4, 2019 Author #236 Share Posted March 4, 2019 @cot427 I’ve just been through the cruise compass’ and the latest I can find is 9pm which was on Day 1. Will keep you posted if there are any late ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacationbunny Posted March 4, 2019 #237 Share Posted March 4, 2019 We sail on the March 29 cruise. Have been enjoying all the info that you are providing...thanks!!! Disappointed that they do not remove towels after a certain amount of time...that procedure works great on the Harmony. One question: My parents are Diamond Plus and they used to be able to go into the shows about 15 min before the general population to get their seats. DP can not do this on the Harmony...do you know if DP can go into the shows before the others? Keep posting!! AND, enjoy your cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRUISEFAN0001 Posted March 4, 2019 #238 Share Posted March 4, 2019 (edited) New waterslides: 1) Do they run them all day long? 2) Do they operate into the night at all (would be pretty cool after dark)? 3) Wonder how long the wait lines can be...on Harmony, the Abyss lines were maybe 20-30 people deep at times, but moved quickly for only a 5-10 minute wait time.

EmilyJay Posted March 4, 2019 Author #240 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Day 5: At Sea. This morning we were woken by an announcement from the captain saying there was a medical emergancy onboard. We got up and ready for the morning and had breakfast in the Windjammer again, there was then an announcement that a helicopter would be landing shortly. The staff were excellent at clearing any open areas above deck 11, some people didn’t understand why and were quite rude when asked to leave. But as the staff member said, it was for safety reasons. Equally, it was a windy morning and I’m sure the person who sadly is poorly didn’t want everyone watching. The ship pretty much stopped/ slowed right down for around 1 hour from the first announcement to the helicopter coming. As soon as it arrived, it was off again within 10-15 minutes so hopefully the person who needed it is safety getting the medical help they need and will be ok!! The captain announed we would be 1 hour late into Aruba tomorrow, but to compensate we would gain 2 hours in Bonaire. Quite frankly, I’m not worried about missing an hour as long as the person is ok, health comes first. We spent the morning by the pool, at about 8.30am all chairs in the solarium and by the pool were gone. We managed to find 2 loungers hiding by a pole and grabbed them quick. Lunch was at El Loco Fresh and then we hit up the water slides. Again, only Riptide was open. They were doing tests on the other slide and it is looking more positive that it will open soon. At least there wasn’t moutains of foam coming out the bottom of the slide like day 1! Tonight is casual or 70’s theme dress code. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare bobmacliberty Posted March 4, 2019 #246 Share Posted March 4, 2019 The good stuff starts tomorrow (at least for me). Looking forward to the ABC islands. Hard to believe that some people would get upset about needing to move for a medical evac, but unfortunately, that's the world that we live in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
