Oasis Class vs Quantum Class: Which to choose and why!

[@adammargolis7785]

I’m a teen with adhd and usually get bored on cruise ships at some point near the end of the cruise but on symphony there was never a time I was bored. So it’s very entertaining the whole ride though. My suggestion is to cruise with friends I’ve done it twice and can’t go back.

[@andreww4012]

I doubt you really have adhd, you're probably just a spoiled child whose parents always give you what you want, so you're an impatient one.

[@joannatassin3238]

As a couple who don't own children, the Oasis class is still fun for people who like to see a LOT of shows. The shows we've seen are worth the cost of admission on board alone... Mama Mia, Hairspray, Chicago, yes even Cats! Even the original productions... those were AMAZING. Flight had us both in tears, it was so awe-inspiring. HIRO was standing-ovation worthy... just so fun and energetic I wanted to get out of my seat and dance. See the Ice shows, they're so fun! And the FOOD! Food on Oasis class ships is bar-none. 150 Central Park has all my love, and the amazing food at El Loco Fresh is so much better than the fare at Sabor, I'm glad they're phasing that restaurant out. I need that vaccine to show up soon so we can get back to cruising, because I need to "catch them all" and cross off more restaurants from the list! I literally have not eaten at Chops yet because I just can't fit it into our week! When Matt says there's more restaurants than you can fit into your itinerary, he's NOT kidding!

[@michellestathum5214]

We went on our first cruise in April, 2019 on the Allure of the Seas and had a great time and wonderful experience. We stayed in the Central Park neighborhood with the balcony over looking Central Park. In the evening we could sit on the balcony and enjoy the entertainment below us. Food was great and so were the shows. Looking forward to going again!

[@JordanHunn15]

I love oasis class ships is was recently on the oasis of the seas it was amazing staff was great i loved the activities and i got a tour of the oasis of the seas

[@cowboyvalley]

Matt, we just got off of Anthem of the Seas. But after having been on both Oasis and now Quantum class ships (we've been on about 18 RCCL trips), we didn't care for the Quantium class for us. First, the staff were fantastic as most of RCCL's ships are. There is too much wasted space on those ships. The Robo Bar was one that is completely wasted space. 9 day trip, I saw 4 people use it for drinks. Once you've seen it make a drink on video, there's nothing else to it. The Northstar was cool to do....once. The main dining rooms, yes, i said rooms, as they're all broken into small specialty type rooms. If I want a small room to eat, I'll go to the specialty restaurant. That won't include Jamie's. While the food was good, it wasn't good enough to spend the extra for. The Music Hall was one of the best venues on the ship. I would love to see it on all the ships. The 270 was a very cool room, too bad they had to put a show in it that is aimed at 20 year olds. I heard no that like it on our cruise. The entire ship is cut up and felt disjointed.Nothing really flowed from one place to the next. And until we memorized where the bathrooms were, that was an adventure! We missed not having the ice show. Now the room...we usually get a Grand Suite. We did this time also, but when we opened the door, we thought there had been a mistake. They put a wall right down the middle of the room that then makes the room 2 smaller rooms. Open the door, in front of you is a couch and coffee table, tv, closet and bathroom door. The space between the couch and tv is just big enough to put the coffee table!!!!! I had to slid it out and toward the balcony door just to walk through to the bed area. Bed was as good as they all are and the bathroom was good too. But we couldn't figure out why the wall was there! Also, we asked our room attendant if we could get just regular coffee for the room instead of 2 regular and 2 decaf. We were told no. I think that is the first time I've been refused a service and a small on at that. Overall it feels like RCCL is outgrowing itself. We had a great time, but we won't be going back on any Quantium class ships.

[@mashaangelochik]

Thanks for the detailed review! Totally useful.

[@nebulousMinx]

Thanks

[@kuenc8344]

Everyone has their own reason to choose the ship. I agree with you about the smaller size dining rooms in the Quantum Class ships compared to the large main dining rooms in the Oasis Class ships. Since the Oasis ships are wider than the Quantum Class ships, the Oasis ships are more stable than the Quantum ships given the same weather condition. For those who are more sensitive to motion sickness, Oasis ships are the top picks. For us, having two Flowriders on the Oasis ship is the main reason we picked Oasis ship. The Quantum ship only has one Flowrider, and it shares with boogie board and standup surfing, so the wait time is long. The IFLY requires reservation, so if the booking is full for the day, good luck on the next day or two.

[@carlosescobar2170]

Awesome rundown... I'm not trying to burn RC but it does seem they are growing to big for their britches. Yes innovation is great and all the dining options are wonderful but I for one (my wife included) put a high premium on the state rooms especially for cruises of 5+ nights. Heck we did a small, deck 2 interior room for one of our quick 3 night getaway cruises and swore we'd never do that again. Not because the room was less than expected but because we put a high value on the state rooms. So i definitely see where Cowboy is coming from. My wife and I have been on Allure and Harmony and loved them both, and as mentioned we have also taken shorter cruises on the smaller ships. And the Oasis class is by far our favorite. On our last cruise we decided to book a cruise on the Odyssey since we are finally getting a Quantum Class in Florida but after reading this review AND looking at how the ship is laid out we may change our sailing. All the Jr Suites, which my wife and I prefer, seem to be positioned right by the elevators and hallway exits. Meaning, heavy traffic and noise levels from people coming and going. If you are going to pay more for a suite (even a Jr Suite) I would expect them to be positioned in better locations. On the Harmony they were not so close to the elevators etc..

[@bitsorbytes]

Funny, we love Quantum class ships, and to say only 4 people used the robot bar over 9 days, I now know you're making things up. Also not sure how its a 'wasted' space, when its basically in a walk way! So much open space on Quantum class ships it never feels busy. I will agree one big main dining room would be better, but this way you get to enjoy all 4 different rooms. I just wish they stuck to the original idea of having different food in each dining room. We recently got off Symphony of the Seas aka Oasis class and really disliked that ship. So many pinch points, so busy, so loud. Lots of wasted space thats not really used. Yes the park gardens are lovely, but no one sits in that space. So its just a big empty waste of space really. The aqua theatre is also a waste of space, hardly used. On our week cruise they used it two nights for shows and played a few movies at other times. Give me a care two70 any day over the aqua space.

[@stevenfoster9402]

We went on Anthem of the Seas last year and it was awesome! The bumper cars are SOO much fun and Northstar is amazing too. The only thing we didn't like was the Robo bar. Once you've seen it pour drinks a couple of times, it gets old real quick. We don't know why it gets so much publicity. Anyway, loved Anthem, can't wait for our next cruise!!

[@kernelxsanders]

I think the Robo bar is just for the novelty. Grab a drink or two just to see it in action, then move on to the other bars for the rest of the sailing. Neat to witness just, like I said, for the novelty, but probably not going to hang out there long.

[@CC-TimesTwo]

I've been debating which ship to get on for my first RC cruise and I'm heavily leaning towards the Quantum class because of the Music Hall and Two70. The Music Hall looks like a great nightlife spot and we know we'll appreciate the indoor hangout space that Two70 provides.

[@loomis4014]

We were just on Symphony of the Seas last week and Harmony last year. It was amazing!! And the perfect dat at Coco Cay was truly a perfect one. I love to be on one of the quantum class.

[@nathanielseymour8108]

I've been on one from each class (the Anthem and the Harmony). They're both awesome for different reasons, but for me personally......the bigger the better. I just wish the Harmony had more of a karaoke selection. That was pretty minimal.

[@jeffquillen5560]

My first and only Royal Caribbean ship I’ve been on is Allure of the seas. I’ve only been on Carnival previously and I must say that it truly was breathtaking. Absolutely beautiful and massive ship, wonderful staff. It was also my first week long cruise and I think I may have spoiled myself for future cruises lol. But it was absolutely worth it and I plan for my next cruise to be on an Oasis or Quantum class. Me and my girlfriend always had something fun and different to do each and everyday and it was an absolute blast! Highly recommended especially for adventure seekers!

[@billfisher6606]

Like that they both have Sorrento's and the freestyle soda machines. I have pros and cons for both, but in the end I like the "openness" with the neighborhoods on the Oasis class. Walking through Central Park and Boardwalk and being outside but inside the ship is cool.

[@chloe5susan]

Bill Fisher we are taking our adult children on the new Oasis Jan 5. We also like the opening of the ship. Central/ boardwalk too. There are 3 sail days on this 7 days at sea so opening is what I desire

[@ghost812]

I’ve been on the Ovation of the Seas (Quantum Class) before. I went in August 2018 to Alaska, and it was a beautiful ship! The seaplex was the best part in my opinion, as well as the extremely convenient dining options like Sorrentos Pizza. The north star was awesome, too! The Ovation is my favorite ship out of the other cruise ships I’ve been on (I’ve been on 7 cruises; 2 Royal ships, one Norwegian ship, and 3 Disney ships; went on one twice). Me and my family actually have a trip booked on the Oasis of the Seas in December, which I’m super excited for. That’s why I watched this video. Guess we’ll see which I prefer once December rolls around!

[@melvinjacobs2328]

We went on the Ovation last September and had a great time, but my favorite ships are still the Oasis Class.

[@BayMom84]

What was the verdict?

[@OColpin]

I think with the revamping of some ships, like the Voyager getting new upgrades like the twin waterslides, it's becoming more affordable for people who want those type of theme park experiences on smaller budgets.

Matt you missed time of year, Cape Liberty has an Oasis class in the summer I believe and a Quantum class in. Living in a beach town means my summers at full of work but I always have off for the month of January. So my best time to travel is January when I am limited to only the Anthem of the Sea.

I recently came back from the 7 night Bahamas cruise on Oasis of the seas & I have to say I loved it. It was my first cruise & I went with my husband, mom & step dad. They loved it as well except for the last few nights, the water was really rocky & the ship was swaying alot. The service was better than here in the States, the food was delicious.

I enjoyed the Allure of the Seas more than the Harmony. We were on the harmony last week and I felt so much room was taken up with slides. Many stores are removed to fit the slides in. My granddaughter is scared of 10 story slides and I didn’t use them; so I considered it wasted space. It was a bummer that they removed the candy store and the the donut / ice cream store for the slides. Another thing was that the harmony’s park cafe didn’t toss your salads with dressing the way that allure did. I know this may seem like a small Thing but I enjoyed their salads so much on allure. I felt allures dressings were homemade even if they weren’t. Harmony gave u a condiment section with small packs of prepackaged kens salad dressings to add to your own salads. I loved the hibachi on both ships. Chops is always a good choice. I thought Jamie’s was good but not great. I truly enjoyed both ships but my pick would be allure.

I have cruised on all of the Oasis Class ships including Allure of the Sea twice and Oasis of the Sea twice. I have cruised on the Anthem once and will cruise on the Ovation of the Sea. My wife and I enjoy the Oasis-class the most. Quantum class is a little too crowded. Hallways are narrower. More likely to bump into another cruiser. It also is more like to have motion sickness than the Oasis class. Oasis-class is so large, it is the most steady with the least amount of the rocking side to side.

I agree about the dining comment. I wouldn't do the Ultimate Dining Package on a Quantum ship. There simply aren't that many specialty dining locations. On the Anthem, there's Wonderland, Jamie's, Chops, and the sushi place. The sushi place is al la carte, so the dining package isn't a factor since you'd have to spend $35 pp just to break even. Wonderland is a "one and done" since they serve the entire menu each visit. The Oasis class ships have more dining variety and the places have "deeper" menus.

This makes it so hard to choose! I've only been on one cruise myself, and it was on Freedom back in December 2012 (yes I know, I've been slacking, they're just so expensive most of the time!), but I've been watching many of your tour videos of the newer ships, and I just can't go much longer without another sailing! I'd probably lean towards whatever is the newest ship at the time (in this case, Wonder), but the following cruise I'd book would most certainly be a Quantum class so I can get a taste of both.

Oasis class have lot of things to do but focusing on downsides which you all want to know is it gets too crowded, one need to stand in the queue for everything including some of the restaurants, shows & guest services, fight to get a seat in the swimming pool, need to reserve shows several months before the ship starts, most excursions gets filled up. If you dont mind crowd and queues then Oasis class is a good choice, the shows are fantastic provided you reserve them ahead. In spite of the crowd, they did a very good job on on port embarkation and disembarkation, I never had to wait there at all but most other places there will be wait times

What we thought could be improved- offer more shows that are family friendly, more entertainment by the main pool such as movies& music.

Liberty of the seas: What about me? Also I know it’s Freedom class

[@belindan4974]

Definitely enjoyed the Ovation OS on an Asian cruise. 👍🏼 Couldn't get everything in. Maybe bad planning? Probably Symphony next. Done small (Celebrity Horizon) so want to go big!! 👍🏼

[@4WheelerinMiami]

We sailed on the Symphony of the Seas on August of this year. I really enjoyed the Aqua Shows & the different restaurants available on it. We tried every restaurant, my favorite was Jamie's Italian...

[@michaelbertolone5758]

We here on the Oasis of the seas twice and going on the Harmony May 2020

[@davidhill2444]

Matt thank you for this comparable, very helpful and will take it into account when we book again. Since we have 5 kids range from 2 to 18yrs.

[@Nico_6967]

I was on Quantum of the Seas on one of it’s last voyages in the USA

[@dwill123]

Two70 (Anthem of the Seas) is worth the price of admission. That said both classes of ships are WAY too big. If you want to sky dive join the Army. 'North Star' good luck in getting a reservation to ride. Anthem of the Seas reminded me of an outside flee market. Complete with sideshow barkers hawking all kinds of cheap cruise junk (tee shits, watches, etc.). My advice (opinion) find an older, smaller cruise ship and enjoy a quiet relaxing cruise.

I've never seen the roof opened in the "indoor pool" on a Quantum class ship. Have you?

[@jamesmccaffrey4464]

No I have not... one day they may open it

[@BrianAlt]

James McCaffrey yeah. I won’t hold my breath. 😜

[@annacantar3098]

Been on Anthem of the Seas and Allure of the seas and I definitely enjoyed Allure of the Seas much more! It was non-stop fun and still plenty of time to relax

[@evanhce135]

I’ve been on the Oasis, Harmony, and Symphony from the Oasis class, and Quantum and Anthem from the Quantum class and they are all awesome ships; the best in the world. In my opinion, the Oasis ships are better because they are just so huge, there is just so much to do, and I think Central Park, the royal promenade, and the Boardwalk are the coolest features on any cruise ships ever. The Quantum ships also have some insane features, but I prefer the Oasis class. I hope that RCL’s next project, project Icon will have a mix of the best features from both classes, while introducing more crazy innovations like Royal Caribbean is known for doing.

[@antonytsai6611]

if royal caribbean were to make a similar ship to the quantum class i would make it slightly wider and longer keep 270 add some water slides and other activities maybe a zipline? and maybe add some facilities that are hanging over the ship

[@FNmamba24]

I’m thinking that I may change my cruise from quantum to oasis based on this video. I have a 8 & 5 yr old and it seems like oasis is better for little children

[@cowboyvalley]

In my opinion, I think you're right. It's not like there's not a lot to do, but it's a bit different. If you use RCCL's children's program, you may not get them out of there to even eat! Kids love their program that much!!!

[@jaboonie9365]

No one asked

[@rodmills737]

I've been on Allure of the seas, best ship I've ever been on, and I'm booked for Harmony of the seas in October

[@odannyboy9929]

I haven't sailed on either yet, but we are on the Oasis of the Seas in April. Thanks for the info.

[@HarryPoopy]

80% of the comments are just, omg omg I went on all the oasis class ships and I loved them so much!

[@Blaisefiyah]

I’ve sailed on 2 Oasis Class ships (Oasis and allure) and 2 quantum class ships (Quantum and Anthem). I’ll be on Anthem again Sept 2020 to Alaska

[@HarryPoopy]

But which one did you like more?

[@asmpparker]

Hey Matt, Thank you for doing these videos that are informative and fun and interesting and not overly long. My only issue is that when I watch them on my TV through my stereo system there is a weird high-pitched noise that is constantly playing through my center channel that is really scratchy and annoying. I only hear it on your videos and I’m wondering if there’s anything you could look into and find out why it’s there and on no other video I’ve ever watched on KZbin. Thanks again

[@seppotaalasmaa9171]

I choose both, please!

[@erikagholston6610]

I think I will go for an oasis class ship on my next sailing.

[@kepshiro]

Sadly I can’t go on the oasis class because it doesn’t come to Australia 😔😢

[@evanpedvis9460]

I have done Harmony, Symphony and Anthem. I preferred the Oasis class over Quantum. Quantum wasn't bad though

[@gabrielmorla3149]

it would be so interesting to see all royal Caribbean ships in one place

[@stephanieinch]

Sailed on Oasis a couple years ago with my travel agency. I couldn't wait to take my family on one of these magnificent ships. Last year we ended up on Brilliance. Let's just say it was not my, or the 5 kids who were with us, favorite ship. This year we decided on Harmony. We were not disappointed. There was so much to do we still didnt get everything in after 7 days, partially because of rough Seas and shows being cancelled, but partially due to the sheer amount of activities offered. We will be sailing on Harmony again next year and look forward to catching up on what we missed. Do you know when she goes in for dry dock?
