We found our clearly tagged bags, with a few others about 30 rooms aft in the hallway. Not a good experience on the Harmony. Harmony seems to dance to the beat of a different drummer. They seem to do things different from the rest of the fleet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No just impatient, different staff deliver luggage to a certain drop of point then next staff put it in your cabin . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted December 10, 2019 #28 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Seems that later in the evening doesn’t matter, luggage is still not delivered inside the cabin. A few weeks ago we were on brilliance, and even after dinner, we saw luggage sitting outside a couple of the cabins. We’re talking 9 o’clock in the evening and the luggage is not inside the cabin. m 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most here are talking about delivery to the cabin, not inside of it - that has not been the norm, nor should it be an expectation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what our President would classify as Fake News! Really?? So how do you account for the fact that we cruised on 3 different ships in Sept, Oct and Nov and every time the bags were left somewhere in the corridor on which our cabin was located, but never delivered to outside the cabin. Not a big deal as happy to grab them but some people were very confused as their bags were placed a long way from their cabins. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STANMELB Posted December 10, 2019 #31 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Sailed on the Allure last week. This was our 9th sailing this year on an Oasis Class ship. On all previous sailings our luggage was delivered inside our cabin. For this sailing our luggage was left in the hallway by our cabin door.

Ken at the beach Posted December 10, 2019 #32 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Given how many cabin stewards there are in the ship I’m sure that even on the same ship the same week you will find variations of how near/far or if your luggage is inside/ outside of your room and when. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molly361 Posted December 10, 2019 #33 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I have had to search down the hall for our luggage on every cruise for about the last year or so. Don't know if they would eventually find us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pratique Posted December 10, 2019 #34 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I don’t think it’s a new normal. It just depends on the circumstances. On Allure now. Our first bag was waiting outside our cabin after muster. The other bags were waiting in our room after dinner. This has happened before. But there have also been times where the bags were staged down the corridor at 1:00. Our bags have always showed up sooner or later. I think 7:30 was the latest we ever got all of them.

RocCruisers Posted December 10, 2019 #35 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I'm sure plenty of people are just excited to see their luggage in the hallway, instead of getting it in the naughty room. 😁🤐🙄 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamom Posted December 10, 2019 #38 Share Posted December 10, 2019 On the last couple of cruises we have found our luggage outside other cabins. Maybe, as some posters stated, they are placed in the corridors and then dispersed in time. We may have just been going down the corridor before that happened.

WAY down the hall on one cruise. When we had a grand suite we had to trudge down the LONG hallway to get our bags!

ownedbypets Posted December 10, 2019 #40 Share Posted December 10, 2019 We were on Brilliance a few weeks ago and it was delivered to us. We were in a suite but they rang the doorbell and when we answered they brought it in. They were very busy so maybe they would have left it outside if we didn't answer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisegirl1 Posted December 10, 2019 #44 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Actually, the rare times luggage is inside the cabin we generally remark to each other “wow-what a nice treat“. Can you imagine leaving your luggage with a porter at a hotel, and having it show up somewhere in the hallway! No one would ever stand for that. Personally I think it’s somewhat of a disgrace that luggage is not delivered inside the state room, or even at the the state room door. The fact that it is just somewhere in the hallway is terrible M 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssb Posted December 10, 2019 #45 Share Posted December 10, 2019 If you would like your luggage right away , pack lightly , in a medium size luggage Bag , and walk it on and go straight to cabin . Medium size bags fit through screeners . We usually get on around one o’clock when cabins are available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ssb Posted December 10, 2019 #47 Share Posted December 10, 2019 (edited) If you have a good room attendant they will put bags in your room , that is If you are patient . Life takes time, be patient . Attitude can be the difference between an ordeal and an adventure. Edited December 10, 2019 by ssb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChollaChick Posted December 10, 2019 #49 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I like to unpack everything as early as possible - that seems to make it feel like we are really now on vacation - so if I see our bags in the hallways we always bring them in. Then I can get us settled in and our vacation OFFICIALLY begins. :) Up until then it's still in the preparation mode. Hahaha. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We found our clearly tagged bags, with a few others about 30 rooms aft in the hallway. Not a good experience on the Harmony. Last month we were on the Harmony. For the first time we did not tip extra to the stateroom attendant and also gave our first negative review of our cruise. Just one example, our food was usually cold when served and the food was much better in the Windjammer. However, we still did tip extra to the waiter and assistant waiter. So, we’re not difficult passengers dealing with staff. Also, for the first time, overall we found the staff were not as friendly as all cruises we have taken. BTW: Just a rhetoric statement - was surprised to discover RCCL charges $2.50 for a small box of popcorn. Cookies are more expensive than popcorn to make, yet cookies are provided for free. Go figure. 🤨🧐🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
