We recently took our first real vacation! We went on Royal Caribbean Harmony of the Seas. What started out great, ended up with pure sickness! My only advice, don't book during hurricane season!

Greetings, after viewing your vlog, and seeing how you got around on the boat, made it to your mustard station, waiting till the 6 minute mark in your video before you mentioned the name of the boat, I think you did not do enough research on how to be a first time cruiser. There are tons of vlogs on KZfaq that have tips, tricks and hacks that would have helped you to navigate some of the issues you encountered on your cruise. You are on a cruise vacation, you are not in Heaven. There are things that will occur that RCL or any other cruise line can not control. I appreciate your opinion. And of course, they say opinions are like mothers...everybody has one. So now you have mine. 💩💩💩

thanks for the view :) I was unaware being a first time cruiser was so serious, but I see your videos, maybe you should make better videos so I can learn.

I’m sad to see you guys had this poor cruise experience for such a special occasion. I would encourage you guys to check out Margaritaville that sails out of Tampa. Smaller ship, more intimate experience, and the food is super good! We’re vlogging our experience on our channel. Just got back last week so more videos coming. Hang in there you two! And a new subscriber for you!

I hate you've had a bad experience. I have been on 18 cruises. I know you mentioned a dislike for Carnival, but 14 of my cruises have been with Carnival and have been a blast. The first time I went I felt like I was going on a Walmart Cruise, but I ended up loving it better than Princess.

I normally cruise in April/May and only experienced rain once. Last year I went in June and thankfully we were ahead of the rain at each port from day to day. I’d say choose a different time of year to cruise bc June 1-Nov 30 IS OFFICIALLY HURRICANE 🌀 SEASON 🤷🏽♀️

Before taking anorher cruise remember this JASON (june, july, august, september, october, november) those are the months for hurricane season, when weather can ruin your cruise with cancellation of excursions and ports. Another thing, nothing is free on a cruise, there are items and services that are included in tour cruise fare and others that have an extra charge. 😎👍🏻

I know it's hard to think about this, but don't let this first experience spoil everything about cruising. I have been on many cruises, with the majority on Royal. They are very good about addressing issues on the ship. If you choose to go again, I hope you have a better experience.

Hey Tink! Been on 2 carnival cruises and had a blast on both but the second one I did get sick on the last day and on my first we hit 10 to 20 foot swells. Still had a blast and will go back. I feel like it’s just an easier way to travel. But to each their own. I tag you TikTok so you can see the quick video I made.
@terraottmer32342 күн бұрын
Sorry it was missed, but they sometimes they don’t get the information about it due to weather, which no one can control. Weather sucks sometimes. Gosh getting sick sucks, but that’s not rc’s fault but they should have seen you two for being sick. Period. Hope you both feel better soon! Try in march or April next time, weather is better and tends to be less kids.

I’m sorry you have had such a bad experience. We have been on 13 cruises and only one bad time on princess (which we will not go back on a princess again). The rest have been on carnival which we love and NCL which is even better. I can’t believe the price you paid. We come from Canada and we don’t pay that. Good luck to you and hope you’re all feeling better.
