Everyone of those items was on the menu for Symphony and Harmony maybe you just didn’t look, or 3 weeks ago the universe was a much different place Just admit your wrong and we can move along. No big deal They don’t serve humble pie a la mode 😎

Harmony has dark wood tables Symphony has light wood tables The photos don’t lie Look again and see two completely different Bistro styles, two different ships and Definitely NOT chefs table food 💯 And I know OP asked about Harmony Symphony are trialing new menus and setups I showed comparison of the two

Read posts carefully 1st set of images are Harmony 2nd set of images are Symphony come back and apologize before you question my credibility

How can you say “definitely not bistro” some people make me laugh, Photo proof, and you doubt it’s credibility and this is from 10 days ago

Never done Chefs table All photos are from Bistro 💯 To add when have you ever seen a 2 top wooden table at Chefs table

Symphony Bistro offerings ALL items were self serve, no mains cooked to order. Part of the exercise of cost savings I assume, but I never assume so I am guessing instead 😉 We thought Symphony Bistro was a far better location than any of the other Oasis class ships Nice and open with Hooked up above in a mezzanine area. Chefs table also in Bistro

Some of the Harmony Bistro offerings

Concierge can reserve all of your shows (except comedy) 6-7 days before you board. When they send out generic Suite email just reply with your desired shows and times You can see which ones you want in the App.

For the Genie (Star Class) Typically 6 weeks before sail date That has been our experience For Suite concierge 6-7 Days Happy Days!

Check for what time ship will be cleared typically 30mins after docked, but that can vary sailing to sailing. Also check to see how many ships are in port the day you are there. Can also make a big difference on availability

The two to the left of the bar get more shade and get overlooked The ones to the right get very hot 🥵

There are 6 day beds by the bar. They go very quickly They are free 👍🏻 Walk it don’t tram it, if you want to snag one 😉

If it is a 7 day cruise we would probably bid on all 3, at a minimum bid 😉 On Navigstor you are not getting Suite lounge 11-11 free drinks, no Coastal Kitchen so your really just paying for A bigger room and a few other perks like using the CL JS already get priority embarkation (Suite) On Oasis class ships makes more sense to bid higher, on non Oasis class ships JS really is not a bad option. if using the CL is important to you, bid YMMW Happy Days!

Royal should try a Whataburger, that’s a delicious burger worthy of a $11.99 price tag or even a Smashburger. One day when all the people who were alive in the 50’s no longer cruise, it will be time to date ships back 50 years to the late 70’s and 80’s 50’s Nostalgia won’t appeal as much to Gen X or millennials But a burger is a burger 🍔

Probably busy uploading all the 500+ players data form the recent Signature Symphony cruise 😉 The casino was heaving and you had to Q for seats

On the odd occasion we were not sailing in a suite, if we could not get into CL. /SL It was no big deal Just found a bar that accepted coupons. if I wanted a coffee, went to the DL The drink coupons obviously as intended did not appease all, but probably for 95% of cc members did the trick

Just book a suite, then you get what you pay for CL should be for people that have paid for it in their cruise fare Finally CL and SL for SUITES (Pinnacle’s when there is room)😉 I really am not getting all the hoopla, nothing has been lost other than a coffee machine, which is also In all DL’s And you can have 4/5 drinks ANYWHERE in much nicer places 24/7 across the fleet consistently with all tiers of cruisers 👍🏻 If you fly economy, don’t expect access to the airport lounges Happy Days! I can take the heat, wrath hoopla cheerleading Pom Poms 🤡

Both DL and Jazz club on 4 are dark No windows for either. Light and windows cost extra on Royal 😉 I like to see the ocean when we are sat in a lounge having free drinks 🍹 And for the older ships with an Internal lounge, we use our coupons in lighted areas. Coupons are the better benefit than the lounge for D and D+ IMO Happy Days!

Pinnacles last week on Symphony were dragged off to the Jazz Bar on 4 Banned from SL 110 P’s 554 D+ 441 D You are 💯 it all depends and not known until boarding day. SL CL PL All packed to the rafters 😎

To offset the $1.99 being free, all internet daily packages will be increased by $1.99 Solid Marketing 101😉

X Beyond Jan 2023 Next Royal Oasis Mar 2023

Not used that bar Did not see any indicator on the two we signed as in how many remaining either

Have only signed twice after 5 days on Symphony (50 drinks) for 2 of us Depends on the bar or restaurant. The 2 requiring a signature were at the Trellis Bar.

Some ping rates from Symphony on way to St Thomas 🏝

Agree was not as good as it had been. much better today. We have found the best location to be at the bar on the Suite Deck. Ping rate below 75 for pretty much everything. I have not looked for antenna’s or seen anything that stands out as Starlink HW
