dlwolf72 Posted November 25, 2019 Author #3 Share Posted November 25, 2019 (edited) Someone currently on Oasis posted a picture of his “WoW Band”. So, Biker19 may be wrong about “WoW Bands” not being available on Oasis. Edited November 25, 2019 by dlwolf72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Context matters when one is in CC - look at the date of my post. Until last week, my statement was true. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whomever you spoke with apparently didn't know about the locks being upgraded during this most recent Drydock. Wow Bands and unlocking doors through the app are now supported on Oasis.

dlwolf72 Posted November 25, 2019 Author #12 Share Posted November 25, 2019 It wouldn’t surprise me that after inquiring with RC about the “WoW Bands” someone would tell me ..... “But, there is Karaoke”. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamecock411 Posted November 26, 2019 #13 Share Posted November 26, 2019 I just put a post on an app on my phone re: Oasis. Someone on the ship stated Oasis DOES have them now. However, my next question was: Are they free for suite guests? Does anyone have an answer to this? I have read on other posts that the ships which DO have the WOW bands, suite guests get them free. Can someone give me information on the WOW band? I don't know anything about these as I knew they were not available on Oasis. Now, apparently, they are so I'm wondering how they work. TIA for any helpful information Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gamecock411 Posted November 26, 2019 #15 Share Posted November 26, 2019 So what is the advantage of having one of these? I guess I just don't understand how this is better or more convenient than a SeaPass card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The WOW band is also waterproof so can be worn in the pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stardancer68 Posted November 26, 2019 #19 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Can WOW bands be reused on different ships? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted November 26, 2019 #20 Share Posted November 26, 2019 I love using mine. A simple movement of the arm and I'm in my cabin. It's wonderful when you are carrying stuff. Even when you are not, there is no fishing around for a card. Easy peasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know about full suites as we only have a JS, but Guest Services just told me that unlike Quantum Class, Harmony, and Symphony, Pinnacles do not get them free on Oasis. They were not sure why Oasis is different. Edited November 26, 2019 by lovelife Didn't mean to quote MM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamecock411 Posted November 26, 2019 #22 Share Posted November 26, 2019 I have read that Grand Suite and above (on other ships) are free and waiting in your cabin. We are in a Crown Loft suite so wondered if this applies on Oasis. As this is new to Oasis, I'm sure I will get more info as time goes on. Thanks to all who have given me feedback.

Some of them have your muster station printed on them. Sometimes Guest Services will give you a new one, and sometimes they will tell you that they won't. Some of them are plain, so can be reprogrammed without discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaryL31 Posted November 26, 2019 #25 Share Posted November 26, 2019 We just received them in a JS on Anthem. I was not expecting them. A friend who cruises often tells me you just bring them with you on your next cruise and they will take them and give new ones back to you that are programmed for your current cruise.
