CapitalKyle Posted July 10, 2015 #703 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I just had a thought, Lloyd. Any chance those wave breaker modifications are Harmony's version of the "bus stop" smoker's lounge on Quantum-class? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lloyd555 Posted July 11, 2015 Author #705 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Work has started on the Solarium roof. Work has started on the (narrower) starboard funnel/exhaust stack fairing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lloyd555 Posted July 15, 2015 Author #707 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Dynamic Dining will NOT be on Harmony, Oasis or Allure http://creative.rccl.com/Sales/Royal/Oasis/15045183_OA_Class_Dining_Update_FAQ.pdf From the document... The revolutionary Dynamic Dining concept was created for Royal Caribbean International’s newest and most technologically advanced Quantum-class ships. It has been decided not to introduce the Dynamic Dining concept to the rest of the fleet, which was not specifically designed to support it, although previously announced for Oasis Class ships. etc. So now that there won't be the need to choose my dining venues for a no longer existing Dynamic Dining on my February 2017 cruise, I called RCI customer service to see if I could choose an early MDR seating for that cruise. After all, when you book a cruise on a ship with the regular MDR dining, you can do it right away while booking the cruise. They haven't 'switched over' to that option yet, but as it says in the FAQ, 'Guests of Harmony of the Seas who have already pre-selected the Dynamic Classic option for their upcoming cruise will be assigned to either early or late seating to match their original choice of time'. So I had the agent switch from Dynamic Choice to Dynamic Classic 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between Wonderland, 150 Central Park, Sabor and all of the other specialty restaurants it was going to be hard to fit everything into 7 nights! I was excited to try the different menus like American Icon and Chic but now I guess I'll just have to plan an Anthem trip for that! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd555 Posted July 15, 2015 Author #709 Share Posted July 15, 2015 With no Dynamic Dining on Harmony of the Seas, the three dining venues, Grande, Chic and American Icon Grill will become the MDR. What do you think will happen to Wonderland on deck 11&12 and Coastal Kitchen on deck 17? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think will happen to Wonderland on deck 11&12 and Coastal Kitchen on deck 17? Coastal Kitchen was not a part of Dynamic Dining, it is a suite perk, so I would assume that it stays as planned, and as is currently functioning on Oasis and Allure.

True. Also, I re-read the FAQ and it suggests that Wonderland will stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoamingRetirees Posted July 15, 2015 #712 Share Posted July 15, 2015 True. Also, I re-read the FAQ and it suggests that Wonderland will stay. That makes sense, since Wonderland is a specialty restaurant. It was not part of DD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papcx Posted July 15, 2015 #713 Share Posted July 15, 2015 True. Also, I re-read the FAQ and it suggests that Wonderland will stay. Superb. One of the best dining experiences I've had. Can do it again now in oct! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karmacats Posted July 16, 2015 #717 Share Posted July 16, 2015 OMG! Time for me to book Harmony! But wait... The Aquatheater and boardwalk are on the same deck. ???? maybe the "launch" platform will be waaaay up near the diving platforms? if this wasn't on royal's actual twitter page, i'd think it was a joke. maybe they got hacked. :p i just can't figure the logistics. if it's true, it'll be cool, but probably too scary for me. i'll stick with the wimpy waterslides over central park! btw, love seeing her name finally painted on in lloyd's pics. yay!

That still wouldn't be 10 stories. From the sports deck to the boardwalk is 10 stories though, so that may actually be the plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only are they on the same deck, but I've always thought that the aquatheater was a feature of the Boardwalk "neighborhood". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapitalKyle Posted July 16, 2015 #720 Share Posted July 16, 2015 That still wouldn't be 10 stories. From the sports deck to the boardwalk is 10 stories though, so that may actually be the plan. Was thinking the same. The area on Oasis/Allure aft of the FlowRiders and the Wipeout Bar seems logical. They throw a few loungers out there and there's a railing overlooking the AquaTheater. This area struck me as big and empty when I sailed on Oasis, so maybe they are trying to maximize the use of this space by adding the waterslide entry. Plus the numbers add up. That is Deck 16, minus 10 decks = Deck 6, which is where the Boardwalk is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macrc Posted July 16, 2015 #722 Share Posted July 16, 2015 The Oasis deck plans show the circle on deck 16. Allure does not. Is the Oasis getting this water slide also? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't realized that. The circle having something do with the waterslide was just my speculation on how they're going to construct a 10 story waterslide. I thought I was on to something there...maybe not. :( I think I'm going to still stick with my idea though, thats really the only option to fit this waterslide...
