CGTLH Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 1 hour ago, gregorykicks said: My guess is Portside BBQ will be forward deck 16 where the solarium bar is. This is where Hooked is on Symphony and the renderings for Portside show curved railings and sea views. Still have a hard time visualizing from the renderings it being the Solarium area. The Solarium bar area is a bit more closed in on Oasis view wise. So I'm wondering if they plan on relocating the Teen's Club area. To me it almost seems where the Back Deck, Living Room, and Teen Disco area is on 15, right next to Wipe Out. Would also somewhat match the "Postside" name aswell. So scratch all the Teen club thoughts, unless it is relocated to a completely different part of the ship with outdoor access. gregorykicks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAAAYTOOO Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 It sure seems like they are not going to get Hooked, which is a very big disappointment to me. BBQ is so “meh”. I agree that putting in a bionic bar is a big waste of Prime real estate. I love the Champagne bar right next to the dining room. I do like the idea of a concert hall. I loved that venue on Anthem. I never ever stepped foot into Dazzles so that is a good move, IMO. Also, no mention of Wonderland, which is a GOOD thing. So, a mixture of good and bad. I just hope it’s ready for my 1 Dec cruise !

It's the wrong vibe for that area too. They may be removing the video arcade and putting it in that area beside el loco fresh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zambia-Zaire Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 The space where Hook's is located on Symphony was empty space above the Bristo on the other Oasis class ships. On Symphony, that level was built or added, to occupy/use that empty space...I imagine they will add/bulid that level onto Oasis & probably Allure, as Porkside BBQ....as was done with Hook's Seafood on Symphony.

My wife and I are both BBQ fans so we are going to hit up the new BBQ joint a few times on our sailing. Also, I'm not sold on the idea of the Bionic Bar. A friend of mine was on a sailing with it and it was a side show that ran its course quickly. I want to get a drink from it since its going to be there just to say I did. I read about Wonderland and I just did not get excited about it so I guess its a good thing, but maybe a bummer for those who were hoping it was coming to the ship. Overall I am happy with the news and I am even more excited for our cruise! WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The concept art almost seems like it is a modification to the dance floor/space in Boleros. I know the bar in On-Air would be right side if facing towards the back wall where the stage might be. But the space the rendering gives makes it seem much larger. Crazy I know, the band stage would be the right spot for the DJ. The back wall area the location of the bar.

Quote alongside existing fun spots such as Boleros, Schooner Bar, Blaze Nightclub & Comedy and English pub Atlas & Globe. Plus with on-air already being a "sports and karaoke bar" it makes sense to turn it into dedicated karaoke since Playmaker's will be dedicated sports Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the relocation of the Diamond Lounge to 4 and the "blank space" on 11 and 12 where it use to be. My thought had been they would move it to that vacant space. That would also expand Boleros giving it a larger foot print. Wild card is still what will go in that Diamond Lounge space. Seeing how Wonderland was not mentioned going in.

Antonio Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 Since diamond lounge is moving down to Deck 4 (to replace comedy live) my thought is that the teen club will use the two level space where it was before since there is no space for it with the addition of the BBQ restaurant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
