One of the world's largest cruise ships, currently sailing Western Caribbean round trips from Galveston, Texas — though she's due to reposition to Fort Lauderdale, Florida in 2027.
Prices vary significantly throughout the year depending on season, demand and how far ahead you book — figures below are typical starting ranges, not fixed prices.
Symphony of the Seas is Royal Caribbean's fourth Oasis-class ship, at 228,081 gross tons and carrying up to 6,780 guests across 16 decks. Highlights include two FlowRider surf simulators, an escape room, Ultimate Abyss slide, Bionic Bar with robot bartenders, and dining from Jamie Oliver's Italian restaurant to the AquaTheater's high-diving shows.
Symphony moved to Galveston in May 2026 after several years homeported in Miami. Royal Caribbean has confirmed she'll reposition again to Port Everglades (Fort Lauderdale) for the 2027 season, offering 6- and 8-night Caribbean itineraries from there — worth checking the current homeport against your travel dates before booking.
4–8 nights, round trip from Galveston (moving to Fort Lauderdale in 2027). Fares typically start around $900–1,400pp for an interior cabin, rising to $1,800–2,400pp for a balcony, with pricing varying significantly by sailing length and season.
