Harmony (western ) vs Symphony (Eastern)

[Mariester22]

Looking at a 6 night western carribean on harmony (Cozumel, roatan, Costa Maya) or a 7 night symphony (st.thomas, st.Maarten, coco cay) with our kids who would be 3-13. 
Quite a price difference between the two, is symphony worth the “upgrade”? Any advantage toneither weather wise winter? Any side warmer or experience less wind?

harmony out of port canavaral and symphony out of Miami. 
last time we sailed late February/March and boy  did we get some wind!

I’m guessing you are going feb/mar 2022?

 

Coco cay is what the children want.  
weather is fickle. 
 

which port is convenient for you?

 

what is the price difference? 

[Mariester22]

Looking December 2022 before Christmas price difference is $3k (4 kids family of 6)

Save the cash, the children will have a good time.

Both ships are essentially identical. Eastern Caribbean is more in demand thus the price difference. If ports make no matter to you and you are ok with one less day on the cruise, save the cash.

I'd save $3k for the next cruise.

Check out the Allure, Liberty and Navigator instead - way cheaper. You'll have a great time, they have lots of bells and whistles - we've been on them all. 

ETA: scratch that, I looked at December 2021 by mistake.

I actually figured two adjoining rooms is cheaper so brings price difference down somewhat ..the harmony has us skipping coco key..is that a deal breaker?
