Surely this wasn't the "big" thing that was coming to Galveston? https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/2024/01/25/royal-caribbean-rumor-wonder-of-the-seas-galveston

Great news!   I really love Allure compared to Harmony.

This was out months ago, last November?  I forget when the allure became able to be booked april 2026. I reread your link and cant find a date. For sure it had to be written before royal dropped cruises end of last year.

 

I kept reading rumors before that too. Made no sense wonder would come here if harmony not selling better.

Harmony is my least favorite Oasis class ship due to no pool in the Solarium. So Allure is a step up in my book.

Wonder if Allure will be upgraded before the move? It doesn’t have slides right?

I also prefer Allure suite area and CK

Why can't Allure just come back to Ft. Lauderdale, doing 8/6 night cruises, where she belongs? And while we are at it, she can bring Mamma Mia with her.

Glad Allure will be back but I am booking MSc yacht club which will be in Galveston in November 2025.

Just curious what are the differences between the 2? I did the Allure going on 2 years ago and almost the Harmony a few weeks ago. (I went on the Vision of the Seas instead)

If it's because it has not been Amplified yet, then you are going to be disappointed.

Yes. Allure is going to be amplified in March of 2025. While the actual details have yet to be released, there is little reason to believe that they have altered plans from the original 2020 Amplification plans, which includes the Ultimate Abyss big purple slide. Hopefully they will make some formal announcement before too long
