Grandma Petania Posted May 2, 2015 #1 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I know that the Harmony will have water slides (and the Oasis & Allure may get them as well). Other than different entertainment shows, does anyone know of any major differences planned for the Harmony - (other than higher prices because it will be the newest in the Oasis class). Will it have a Boardwalk and Central Park? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will it have a Boardwalk and Central Park? Possibly the new aft suites (decks 11-12-14), will be designed a little better, ie, more head height for the shower, since they can start these from scratch instead of working with existing spaces uch as putting the plumbing in the floor instead of building on top. Perhaps they will look more like the lower deck Aquasuites. Gerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, she will have a Boardwalk and Central Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, I'm just under 6-2 and based on my observations in the elevators, I'm generally as tall or taller than most passengers. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just thought the plumbing had to be put under a false floor and that is why the shorter ceiling height. We have 11330 for August 22. At 5'11', definitely should not be a problem anyway . Wonder if anyone has been in them to report since the "infamous" shower door removal and plastic curtain replacement ? Thanks Gerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a small glass panel and the curtain. It was fine..a little dumb, but it didn't bother me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Gerry Don't get me wrong, it is shorter because of what you mention, but I think it would suit me fine. I guess I should have asked if I could really try it out. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ocav Posted May 2, 2015 #13 Share Posted May 2, 2015 In place of the Champagne Bar. I'll be honest, good idea and bad idea, from what I read champagne bar is a good place for peace and quiet, whereas on Lady Q, Bionic Bar is the noisiest of them all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Bionic Bar is a cool thing to have onboard, but IMO, should not have replaced the Champagne Bar.

Where Cupcake Cupboard was would have been better.

Not so sure. It was a neat thing to see in action once or twice on Q, but the novelty wore off for me. It might be different now, but the bionic arm was out of service quite often ...

The Champagne Bar has no other bar right beside it. I don't see how that would be a problem. They are both very different bars, and Schooner is one floor above. Bionic Bar would be a novelty which would be a great "display" for the Promenade where as the pub is more the traditional sitting venue. Besides that, the Bionic Bar only serves cocktails which the Pub doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pub has a singer, Schooner Bar has piano player/singer, Bionic Bar has music too....so that would be three different kinds of music in very close proximity.

I do not seen any problem at all with the Bionic Bar being where the Champagne bar is on Oasis & Allure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be different now, but the bionic arm was out of service quite often ...My thoughts exactly. Last month it did seem to work most of the time, but early in the week it was very empty. They added a DJ there the last couple of days then the place turned a bit livelier. The cost of that would have been better invested in more crew members.
