I am planning my first cruise for Dec '24. There will be 2 people flying in and 2 people that live in Houston. Right now the plan is to come in Saturday morning and then go to the cruise Sunday morning. I'm not sure who they will be flying with and not sure how air2sea prices are (it will be right before Christmas). The 2 people that live in Houston are close to IAH (about 5 miles). I'm thinking that it would be best if we took the RCL shuttle but I'm not sure how it would work with the travel situation. I was thinking about an Uber or a Lyft but my mom stresses over little things so I'm not sure what the best option is. Thank you for any help.

I will be treating my son, mom, and aunt to a cruise for my mom's 70th birthday next year. I am paying for everything and am planning on surprising my mom this Christmas about the cruise (in Dec 24). My son and I will be in 1 room and my mom and aunt will be in the room next door. I want to prepurchase excursions, drink packages, and such. Since I'm booking them together, will they link in the royal app? I don't want to not be able to make reservations or buy stuff for her room.

My family will be taking our first cruise next year (Dec '24). We will be on Harmony of the Seas. The stops are Honduras, Cozumel, and Costa Maya. Our group will consists of a 3 year old, me (adult) and 2 senior citizens. Nobody scuba dives or snorkels so none of those excursions would work. These are the ones I was thinking about but am totally open to suggestions. 1. Roatan island-either the orphanage or an animal adventure 2. Cozumel-the ruins (don't know which one would be the best) or the Mayan family experience. 3. Costa maya-dolphins or amazing race or city tour Thank you so much for your help

My family will be taking our first cruise in Dec 24 for my mother's 70th birthday. My son with be almost 4 when we go. I have been trying to find out info for the cruise so I can make sure I cover everything. We will be on Harmony of the seas. 1. I know the club is closed during meal times. Is he allowed to go everytime they are open (if I want him too) or is there a limit to hours such as he's only allowed to be there (for ex: 20 total hrs for the entire trip)? 2. Are there events for his age to do with me? We will be on a holiday cruise if that makes a difference. 3. Are there family events outside of the kids club that would be suitable for his age? 4. Anything else I should know about kid's club. Thanks

My mom is turning 70 next year (Dec. "24) and has always wanted to take a cruise. I am going to treat her, my aunt, myself, and my son to a cruise on Harmony of the Seas. My son and I live in Houston. Both my Aunt and my mom would be flying in. Now to all the questions: 1. Does Royal Caribbean offer a shuttle from either Houston airport to Galveston? 2. Would it be better to do 1 room or 2 rooms? My mom tends to overpack so I don't want to trip over luggage all the time. 3. If I go with 2 rooms, would the internet package and photo package work for just my room or two rooms? 4. The cruise would be over Christmas so are there extra activities due to the holidays? 5. My mom drinks a ton of bottled water (she is a diabetic), can she bring several cases of water or do I need to buy A refreshment package for her? 6. What are your must haves to pack for a toddler (he will be three)? 7. What are your must haves for adult cruisers? 8. Do you have any excursion recommendations that the 4 of us can do? 9. Any hotel recommendations in Galveston? 10. Are the massages worth it?
