Live from Symphony of the Seas: Has Royal Caribbean Built the Ultimate Cruise Ship?

Wonderful article, would love to try it out.

We've been alongside Symphony in Barcelona and Civitavecchia this week, and I wondered how the cruisers were coping on board with the ghastly weather we've had. We once were on Independence OTS in bleak weather, so nothing was happening out on deck, and the indoor venues were crammed; these past days in the Med were even colder, and the Mistral coming down from France meant little outside sitting or even strolling. These vast ships are built for hot weather cruising, not gales, rain and mists.
