surfjock27 Posted May 26, 2022 #1 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Can anyone confirm that WOW bands are back on Symphony? I’m hearing conflicting things. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truffles2 Posted May 26, 2022 #2 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Not answering your question, but on Wonder ta they were not using them. If you had one they would program it for you. Took about 2 seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted May 26, 2022 #3 Share Posted May 26, 2022 They were not on Symphony in the first 2 weeks of March and they would not even program old ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaveitallbehind Posted May 26, 2022 #4 Share Posted May 26, 2022 (edited) Have not been on our October Oasis, December Allure, or April Anthem. Don't think they've been restarted yet. I will see on our upcoming June Allure. Edited May 26, 2022 by leaveitallbehind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandals04 Posted May 26, 2022 #5 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Don't children get some sort of wow band in case there is an emergency or they get lost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First day on Wonder I got in the line and was queried by the screener as to why I was there. Told her and she said they could not do it. Went back to guest services a day later and they were happy to do it. Go figure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In our experience with children - albeit many years ago - the wrist bands were of different colors to ID the child's age and program involvement so as to be reunited there if separated, or coordinated in an emergency. They were not - nor to my knowledge have been - the WOW style. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandy toes Posted May 26, 2022 #9 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Adventure Ocean provides a different colored wrist band at sign up on the first day. They do not "do" anything. Their main purpose is to allow kids to be gathered up and "herded" (sorry for that word) toward the lifeboats in an emergency. They can also be a quick way to count the kids in the different leveled programs when outside of Adventure Ocean doing a parade, of scavenger hunt.

nelblu Posted May 26, 2022 #10 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Pre-pandemic, I can't recall whether it was on Anthem or Symphony in that they would not re-program previous WOW bands, however, you could get new ones for $5 each. Thought about and decide against as one can simply tap the door sensor to get into the cabin. This to me was the biggest plus when it was introduced on the Quantum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
island diver Posted May 26, 2022 #11 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Was on Symphony in April and now bands were distributed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cynt Posted May 26, 2022 #12 Share Posted May 26, 2022 (edited) I must admit I do miss them. I'm not on social media. Will someone reach out to one of their many platforms and ask them when will they start issuing and using them again? Thank you.
