Symphony of the Seas

We have just seen the launch of the biggest ship in the world.
Symphony of the Seas is the 4th Oasis class ship for Royal Caribbean Cruise Line and has started its season cruising the Mediterranean from Barcelona and Rome.
this ship won’t suit everyone because there are still many people who prefer a smaller more intimate cruise ship. However if you like plenty of choices for activities, entertainment and dining you wouldn’t be disappointed.
RCCL are known for having the most family friendly ships even beating Disney for best family cruise line last year.
They have so many activities to choose from with zip wires, surf machines, ice-skating, the tallest slide at sea and waterslides to name a few.
I haven’t cruised on Oasis class before but I would like to try this especially with my family who I know would love this ship. My kids would love the waterslides and ice-skating and my husband would love the sports facilities and sports bar to keep up with all the big games.
I would love the theatre as Hairspray is one of my favourite musicals and is currently being preformed on Symphony. I would really like to see one of the shows in the Aqua-theatre and the endless choices of dining would suit me down to the ground. Wonderland looks amazing.
There are talks of RCCL bringing a Quantam Class ship to Southampton which I really hope they do.
I have had lots of regular RCCL customers saying that its time for a newer ship to be back here so fingers crossed they might get their wish.
We have the Independence which is hugely popular and now have the Explorer of the Seas instead of Navigator.
The Brits love Independence which is having a makeover ready for the new summer season.
I am looking forward to going back on board and see what difference the changes have made.
