lilcruiser2 Posted June 26, 2019 #1 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Just got an email that our Apr. 25, 2021 on Harmony is cancelled. How can I find out the maintenance schedule for the ships and dates they offered. I want to try to make sure I don't keep running into this problem. They also said our original stateroom category will be price protected at the original cruise fare rate and since we have a balcony we will also get an additional $200 OBC.

If I had to chose, I would chose the April 4th on the Oasis of the Seas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted June 26, 2019 #3 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Did they mention that this maintenance was part of a dry dock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would make sense, given that ships usually go into dry dock five years after they debut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilcruiser2 Posted June 26, 2019 Author #5 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Our original sailing was St. Thomas, St. Kitts and Cococay. We are leaning towards the April 4th with that itenarery for the replacement but may still pick another one. They did not state dry dock in the email, only routine maintenance. I am wondering if I can find a dry dock/maintenance schedule or anyone knows where I might be able to get this information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zdad59 Posted June 26, 2019 #6 Share Posted June 26, 2019 We were on Allure in February with most of the April 18 itinerary. It was a very good trip. My first choice from the list you show would be Apr 25 on Allure. I like the stops. 2nd would be April 18 on Allure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Symphony is the closest you will get to Harmony, however, Oasis and Allure will be upgraded without very similar amenities both Harmony and Symphony have.

I had in my notes that Harmony was due for dry dock in Spring 2021, but did not know the exact dates. I guess they are firming up the dates now. Oasis has a dry dock that ends in November 2019, so as long as there are no unexpected issues, you're good on Oasis for 5 years after November.

Ken at the beach Posted June 26, 2019 #9 Share Posted June 26, 2019 This is the exact same thing they did for the Allure sailings in April 2020. Cancelled as it is time for the 5 year dry dock and Oasis class ships have to go to Europe as there are no drydocks large enough in North America. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I imagine Royal learned their lesson after the incident in Freeport. Maybe that is why they cancelled the April 25th sailing. To allow for transit time to/from Cadiz, Spain.

More to do with getting over there in the slow season so shes done her drydock for the peak sailing season in Europe.

DonnaK Posted June 26, 2019 #13 Share Posted June 26, 2019 We loved Mamma Mia on Allure (but that might change after drydock) I would rather stick pins in my eyes than see Cats (Oasis) What show is on Symphony? Do you prefer a Saturday departure, or a Sunday departure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've heard, it's the best show of the bunch. Looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilcruiser2 Posted June 26, 2019 Author #15 Share Posted June 26, 2019 We aren't picky about what day of the week departure is. I don't work at the this time. We are raising our grandbabies (who will not be going). My husband's job is pretty flexible with scheduling so we go places we want to go or ships we want to try. I'm just trying to make sure what we pick to replace the original sailing isn't going to run into cancellation for maintenance like this one did. I do know emergencies happen and it's a little under 2 years so anything can happen but I like to be fully prepared for our cruises ahead of time so that once I board the ship, all I have to do is relax.
