Harmony Keel Blocks are in the House... well they're outside actually!

[Pipo]

Interesting... this is the one off Southampton to Barcelona.

 

Has been some discussion whether or not this is the inaugural. Just as a matter of interest, would the Harmony cruise on GGG sale include VOOM?

 

Which sailings are being considered as inaugural? Where and when is it going to be christened?

[adel718]

I got free voom for 2 devices and 300obc with my deal and bogo

[Illmaxict]

I think that's right, and then Ken takes over when Harmony heads to Ft. lauderdale if I remember correctly.

 

When the Harmony arrives here in Barcelona, I heard it's Bobby Brown that takes over.

The naming ceremony is not until she reaches FLL in the fall.

Does that make Harmony's (our first full 7 day Caribbean sailing on her) any more special? Are they going to fly Taylor Swift or equal for a concert? We might be more likely to see David Lee Roth (and I mean old David Lee) without Van Halen.

With all the pomp and circumstance that Royal put into the past few inaugural cruises:rolleyes: you will be luck to get a Van Halen tribute band.

I was thinking more like a 8.5 X 11 piece of paper recognition. Isn't that what the did for Anthem? We will get a Crystal a Block though on this sailing.

I hardly belive a naming ceremony will take place six months after delivery. Anthem was christened in Southampton.

That is what Nick Weir (vice president entertainment) stated on Twitter. Ovation will also not have her ceremony until she gets to Asia.

Reminds me of AC ductwork for now.

 

 

 

It is indeed very much like ductwork.

 

We fabricate metal ducts where I work similar to the Abyss slides construction all the time [emoji1008]

Happend before... not with RCI (o.k. Quantum was named after the TA in NYC but that´s only a 2 weeks period). But other cruise lines had a Med season and then named their ships in the US where the ship was based.

 

Ovation will be named Jun 24th in Tianjin (according to Vicky Freed). I always said that Harmony won´t be named until she reaches her new home port Port Everglades. Sorry, it´s all about money and not nostalgia.

Is there a wide angle shot of her mid section showing the slides from a distance as well? Curious how they blend in. The Abyss seems to fit in well so far

A slightly better and more recent shot.

Thanks, they seem to blend in better than the ones on other ships

Do you know if Harmony will get a vintage Mercedes-Benz replica like the ones in the Allure and Oasis?

[Earthworm Jim]

What is this?

 

[Faustballer]

What is this?

 

 

From the Royal Caribbean Blog

 

What do you get when you combine art and function on Royal Caribbean's Harmony of the Seas? The lucky climber!

 

Harmony of the Seas will be the first ship to feature the Luckey Climber play area, located at the end of the Boardwalk.

 

Luckey Climber is a brand of rather large clibming structures that are surrounded by a net, designed for kids to jump on and explore.

I actually really like that face sculpture, very modern!
