Thanks to an Instagram video of Celebrity Infinity being back in Saint-Nazaire, France after 19 years to pick up some Celebrity Apex crew, we got some screen grabs of Wonder of the Seas.  😊

That doesn't seem to jive with initial renderings which made it seem like they were getting rid of the high diving platforms:

Perhaps the new structure with the lighting is being installed then behind the diving platform. Looking back at some of the photos from Lloyd, that new structure is being built and in the yard. So looking at the ship from the aft, one may not see the diving platform but rather the cool looking structure.

The other Oasis Class ships including Symphony, have the white tarp/sail looking things behind the diving platform. It would seem then, that the new design is to replace that look.

If that's the new design without taking away the high diving, it looks awesome. Can you imagine people's faces on a ship following her?

The back structure with the lights possibly changing colours every now and then would look awesome from far and near!

It looks like a concave shaped screen to me - I wonder if it will be an updated variation of the idea that led to the Two70 extravaganza

 

It may even be an outdoor theatre with no diving pool - Very exciting

 

Whatever it is, it will be a major reveal, and yet another step forward in cruise entertainment that will allow for an area to be used constantly, rather than just a few times each week

well once again the newest creative stuff will head away from USA market and over to Asian market.  Just swell

 Spectrum of the seas went there.  However, NCL Joy went and then pulled back.  Ovation was also pulled and updated too

 

I think the lighting area will look cool.  Not sure why a change was necessary from the original blueprint and now it makes folks wonder ( no pun intended) about changes to the other 4 ships down the road.

Asia is a large market and growing.  The Wonder is not a new design, but it is designed for the Asian Market.  So entertainment is designed around the market.  That's how you sell tickets.

Solarium build starts early, before the bridge is installed on the build.

The front end of the Boardwalk opening (second photo) on deck 15 appears to be rounded, unlike sister-ships (see deck plan image).

So, are there going to be two flowriders?  I was thinking this ship was only going to have 1????

 

If so, when are they going to be selling passage?

That image was for an existing OA class ship that Lloyd was using to show hoW the end of the BW was square and the new one On Wonder  in picture 2 is rounded.
 

Wonder  will just have the one flowrider.
