Unique Differences HOS vs Oasis of the Seas

[GTO-Girl]

Now that we know the Harmony is coming to Canaveral I would like to hear everyone’s opinion of the difference in the two ships.

 

Thanks in advance....

No pool in the solarium.

Harmony has the Abyss and water slides.

Also, from what I read Harmony does not have the light and water show under Rising Tide Bar.

So is Allure staying in Ft. Lauderdale or is it moving to Miami? I thought the plan was that Harmony was going to be the only Oasis class ship in Port Everglades? Would they leave Ft. Lauderdale with no Oasis class ship?

 

EDIT: Ah, just read that second link which describes the movements of all the Oasis class ships.

Hot tub on Harmony's suite deck but it's pretty much dominated by Harmony suite kids who think it's a pool. Yes, there is a sign that prohibits that but it's their cruise too. :rolleyes::halo:

I guess it depends on if they can find a place. the plans for it on Allure got cancelled after disabled access problems

Any clue when in 2019 this will happen? We booked Harmony out of Ft. Lauderdale for early Feb. 2019....we chose it bcz of 1) the ship and 2) Ft. Lauderdale Port

It won't be until the new itineraries are released. Your cruise won't be affected.

I find it odd they wouldn't just modify the plan to include an entrance on Deck 11 instead of scrapping it altogether. Then again, I found it odd the entrance on Harmony was Deck 12 and you had to walk down the stairs to be seated.

I chuckle when I read, first Oasis class out of Port Canaveral. If you’ve ever booked a Oasis, you departed from Orlando.

Starbuck's is on the boardwalk

 

No horse carvings display at boardwalk entrance

 

Promenade appears to be much wider

 

There is a pop-up pianist who is very good

 

Comedy club is much larger so holds lots more guests

 

Different but very nice kiddie pool area

 

Large hot tubs at Solarium entrance no longer restricted to 16 years and up

 

Has Jaimie's instead of Giovanni's in Central Park

 

Grand suite has a divider wall (with a TV facing the bed) between the living and bedroom areas which makes the living area very tight

 

Grand suite has a jewelry box

 

I'm sure there are many more differences.

[Tee & Chilli]

Harmony has more storage in the cabin.

What is interesting is on Oasis all the deck placards and ship diagrams have Wonderland on them even though they do not exist yet. I personally would prefer that they skip wonderland and keep the diamond lounge where it is. On Harmony you need to book a grand suite or higher to get a nice lounge experience with windows (or be Pinnacle).

We are only Diamond. Are you saying the DL has no windows on the Harmony?

Oasis recently moved to Port Canaveral. Before that it was at Port Everglades for years. So how can you say if you ever booked Oasis you departed from Orlando?

I think that is true and the lounge is located on deck 4 near the Comedy Club. But that is what I have read on these boards. I have not yet been on Harmony.

I was confused also, until I clicked on poster's link.

 

Wow!! Lots of changes there!! Will be cool to finally check out Harmony when she comes to PC!! :D

LOL!! Totally agree. :o ;)

 

I really do find that annoying when RCI posts Oasis and MJ sailing from Orlando. :(

 

Orlando is land locked, mid state, and 45 miles from Port Canaveral. It is not even in the same county.

 

Port Canaveral is .....Port Canaveral. Not Orlando. :rolleyes:

I think that was intended as a joke. Look at where that poster is from. :confused:;)

[John&LaLa]

No umbrellas or tables at Beach Pool

I must be having a slow day today. I don't get it. And I didn't have any drink package last night either so that isn't the reason.
