Downside to ours is that it's on Deck 7. 😱 Keep watching...I have changed cabin locations on many occasions...especially see them "suddenly pop up" just after final payment. Last Oasis cruise I had one of the dreaded connecting GS cabins on deck 8...was able to snag non-connecting to deck 11 after final was posted. 🙂 Something I noticed vastly different...Harmony did away with most (if not all?) of those multiple connecting GS cabins that Oasis had.

I'm surprised they didnt do the rotating TV like they have in the OVP suites. Oasis/Allure/ had a TV on balcony wall that would swivel. (GS). I think Serenade/Brilliance had a TV on an end table. Don’t recall and can’t find any pictures for Freedom/Enchantment/MJ GS except for some really cool towel animals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the outside wall TV on the older Oasis GS's swivels a bit. But on the new OVP's they use a wall similar to the Harmony GS, and one TV swivels 180 degrees to replicate the two TV's in the GS you saw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you make your CK reservations in advance as soon as you get your letter from Concierge. Beware, September the P’s begin to swarm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I found for 7 nights out of Port Canaveral is that early seating is hot. It is easier to get a CK table around 8 PM than at 5:30 PM or 6 PM.

Probably depends how connected they are.😇 Heck, in January, the CK manager made our reservations for us when he saw our name on the manifest. 😎 Yes, early seating very popular.

Second Seating on HM is 8 PM as it was on OA (we liked that better than 8:30 PM on MA last month). Onboard ship we like to take our time getting ready and then meet friends in the DL for a drink around 7.

She never went. That's probably why the manager gave us that 6pm slot prior to boarding in January 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molly361 Posted June 22, 2019 Author #119 Share Posted June 22, 2019 I didn't realize that early seating on the HM is 5pm. I guess that means that CK opens at 5pm for dinner as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retired LEO Posted June 22, 2019 #121 Share Posted June 22, 2019 I have a comped cruise in September on the Harmony. So what category does that put me in. Not only am I not paying for a suite but I'm not paying for the cruise. I'm also taking my Oasis make up cruise on the Harmony in October. Another freebie. Oh well, see you in SL/CK. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A majority prefer dining early dining times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just looked at a cruise compass from last month and it says early seating at 5pm which is also what my booking invoice says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
