HusemanCruzer Posted April 18, 2018 #1 Share Posted April 18, 2018 (edited) Hello all - Just arrived back home in Florida from doing Symphony of the Seas Maiden Voyage and wanted to share the cruise compass with everyone. Hope these help you plan for future voyages! Due to the file size I will be sharing them via Google Drive. If you have nay issues downloading them, feel free to PM me. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1CXJjZBhMAnMdriNBcaHNwm5QCSBH0KYY Quick side notes: 1. One thing I saw missing from the cruise compass this time is the "Secret T-Shirt Sale" on the Royal Promenade. Last May it was advertised on Harmony. 2. Day 2 is also a Formal night, the cruise compass does not reflect that. I booked Jamie's Italian (which is casual and did not realize that at the time.) 3. Make sure (if you plan to do Planet Z / Laser Tag) get in line early or do it on the first day... The line became a 2-hr wait! Also...Closed toe shoes are required. 4. For Caribbean cruisers... You will NOT find Love & Marriage or quest on this itinerary. But they will come back when she relocates to Miami. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask!

Xpto Posted April 18, 2018 #2 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Hi, Thanks for sharing! Will be in Symphony in August and it’s a good chance to have the dailies in advance to manage the bookings of entertainment. You only shared the first three days! Correct?

HusemanCruzer Posted April 18, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted April 18, 2018 I got told by Royal that L&M would be offered in July. Hoping that is true, and the absence of it on this sailing was just an inaugural teething problem. A lot of the shows I found (expect Hairspray) weren't ready for "Prime Time" AquaNation needs another month... It is bits and pieces that aren't quite flowing yet. The show was canceled (i think) 3 times on our sailing due to weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

compman9 Posted April 18, 2018 #7 Share Posted April 18, 2018 I was on the pre-inaug. and I also noticed there did not seem to be a mention of dress code anywhere on the Cruise Compass However, on formal night it did mention something about meet the captain and go to the theatre etc., on formal night This is clearly a deliberate policy to eliminate any sort of dress requirements People will have different views about this obviously, but I would imagine this will also be reflected fleet wide fairly quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HusemanCruzer Posted April 18, 2018 Author #8 Share Posted April 18, 2018 I was on the pre-inaug. and I also noticed there did not seem to be a mention of dress code anywhere on the Cruise Compass It did start to show up later in the cruise compass, it was just missed on the first 3 nights.

That's a new to me... Our cruise started on Saturday 4/7/2018... I don't know why RCCL would push it to start on Sunday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken at the beach Posted April 18, 2018 #15 Share Posted April 18, 2018 May 27th 2018? That is a Sunday. She departs on a Saturday. Symphony does Saturday departures until April 28th. The April 28th cruise is an 8 day cruise and after that she continues on with Sunday departures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angelwings75 Posted April 24, 2018 #19 Share Posted April 24, 2018 First off, thanks so much for posting these!! Very helpful, as i will be on the Sept 30th sailing :) Question to the royal promenade dance parties... I've cruised on Allure and Harmon,y and both of these had some sort of themed dance party, 70's and 90's. Does the Symphony have any of these nights on the royal promenade?

The only thing they hosted on the RP is the Pirate Parade and Captain's Coffee. Other than that I don't remember any themed parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CP3o Posted May 1, 2018 #25 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Any charge for laser tag? I’d rather have a charge and a 15 min appointment time to return than deal w long wait. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
