 The weather was probably the best thing about the Harmony. I keep debating if I want to post a full review of our experience, but I haven't decided. I'm just hoping that no one has a week like we did. Multiple issues in the kids club, the food, and a huge security issue the last night. 

I wish you would post a review. Whether you post a "review" or post something on the boards where it is interactive, I think it's important to hear all points of view.  I know a lot of people love Harmony, but it's good to hear all sides.

That's what I thought also but the cabin itself is way cheaper in Europe plus flights only one way. I don't know much about the Fjords 

 

Our cabin was a lot less expensive on the Fjords sailing but the air fare was killer. We had to fly round trip from DC to Heathrow and it cost a small fortune. Haven't heard of a one-way.

if you don’t mind a smaller ship - Greek Isles, or Greece and Croatia.  
Sailing from/into Venice would make a nice 10th anniversary trip.

I was eyeing that Greece &Croatia one possibly with two days in Venice before or after.  

 

100% agree.... Dubrovnik, Kotor, Santorini, Corfu, Amalfi Coast, Malta... anything in the Adriatic side... spectacular!

You ask why I would choose this...  New things? hiking? local experiences and cuisine?

You need to look at the following link... One of the best reviews ever on this forum by singinalot

Oops...didn't realize you live in Vancouver or Seattle - so scratch that comparison!

I don't so it's 2 one way flights one from Vancouver to Florida and one from Alaska to Florida

OP, not Royal but we are doing the inaugural sailing of the Mardi Gras. Here's the itinerary:

 

• A nine-day maiden voyage from Copenhagen to Southampton Aug. 31 – Sept. 9, 2020 calling at Kiel (Hamburg), Germany; Gothenburg, Sweden; Oslo, Norway; Rotterdam, The Netherlands; Zeebrugge (Brussels), Belgium; and Le Havre (Paris), France. 

You can check it out on Carnival.com.  Sorry your Harmony cruise was a disappointment.
