Lloyd555 Posted July 9, 2016 #104 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Did they have gotten ahead of schedule? I think that they started the build early thanks to the suspension of the Brittany Ferries Pegasis build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kccrzr Posted August 5, 2016 #108 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I am amused! Based on the thread of the same name that covered Harmony, has anyone speculated on when RC will name her or found domain names registered? I'm guessing we will hear a lot about this ship when 2017 rolls around. I did a quick search of the US Patent and Trademark office records. Royal Caribbean has no newly filed applications for trademark registration of ship names. The most recent filings were in 2014 or earlier and have now been abandoned. Those abandoned applications included: Spectrum of the Seas Joy of the Seas Apex of the Seas Pulse of the seas Passion of the Seas Emblem of the Seas Vantage of the Seas Endeavor of the Seas Journey of the Seas Based on recent past history, it appears likely multiple applications will be filed and the names not chosen will be abandoned.

AdoraBelle Posted August 5, 2016 #110 Share Posted August 5, 2016 They really need to name this one BOGO of the Seas. Hah! Hopefully they don't go with Joy, since NCL seems to have snagged that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crosby99 Posted August 13, 2016 #112 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I hope they get rid of the Ultimate Abyss for the 4th ship. It is pure novelty and makes the Boardwalk look ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royal2464 Posted August 13, 2016 #114 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I hope they get rid of the Ultimate Abyss for the 4th ship. It is pure novelty and makes the Boardwalk look ugly. Don't think they will abandon the Abyss or the other water slides. Royal is making a strong move to change the demographics of their customer base. They want more families and Millenials with more disposable income to enhance their bottom line. Older passengers do not drink as much nor do they take as many excursions. Younger people are more likely to splurge on the high ticket items that mean great profits for Royal. Just a good business strategy as far as I can see.

Just a good business strategy as far as I can see. Exactly. If anything I would expect them to further push the boundaries with some new features that are geared towards the younger or first time cruisers. Can't wait to see what else they have in store for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a good business strategy as far as I can see. I'm a Millennial, and for me the Abyss was a last minute change that didn't improve my cruising experience. But the water slides are a success, even among "Baby Boomers" and "great generations". I was surprised for seeing elderly going down the water slides.

Rare aubreyc1988 Posted August 25, 2016 #123 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I hope they get rid of the Ultimate Abyss for the 4th ship. It is pure novelty and makes the Boardwalk look ugly. while waterslides don't matter to me, I can take them or leave them, I agree, the slide makes the sightlines of the boardwalk look ugly. But i would be surprised if they abandoned the "slide on the boardwalk" for the new Oasis class ships. The biggest pet peeve of mine with Harmony and possibly new Oasis class is the no pool in Solarium :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a good business strategy as far as I can see. I think I am in the key market group Royal is chasing but I think it looked horrendous but the waterslides were great. I really hope they get rid as they could do so much better...a gimmick on 1 ship but perhaps that is what each new ship needs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diesel1973 Posted August 25, 2016 #125 Share Posted August 25, 2016 With all the complaining of the higher price of cruising I'm surprised someone hasn't suggested "Pickpocket of the Seas"!LOL:eek::eek::eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
