Review summary

Overall a fantastic cruise. A couple of things I would suggest is the before a new program is implemented, make sure all the staff know about it. You pay extra for “The Key” as it comes with a lot of perks, but it’s frustrating when you Want to collect the perks and you have to ask numerous staff as the have no idea. Also the wrist bands were not worth the money, they did not work as advertised and they fell off easily so were easy to lose.

I’m sorry to hear that about the WOW band. We experienced quite the opposite on the Harmony last year. Wore it like a watch. Stayed on until I removed it. Worked just as advertised. I would definitely spend the money again.
