The Oasis of the Seas is undoubtedly a massive cruise ship complete with entertainment and dining facilities including a medical area and even a library.

There are so many things to do on the Oasis of the Seas! I love that there is a track to walk around the ship. Makes it for an easy way to get your steps in especially on days at sea. And that was a cool vending machine. It was like a one stop shop!

Yes you definitely get your steps in - especially if you take the stairs instead of the elevators. I thought that vending machine was really neat too.

Thanks for sharing this amazing experience with us, it's really helpful for planning a cruise trip! 👍

If you break down room costs per night per person, cruise lines can’t really be making much from those margins. I mean, come on…my oasis of the seas trip next year is gonna cost less per night than staying at my local Hampton inn! How the hell does Royal Caribbean make any money on that? They don’t! If you’re not prepared to spend money outside of your accommodations, then don’t go on vacation, especially not on a ship worth hundreds of millions with 2,000 staff that need to get paid. Be realistic! If you like a company and what they offer, spend some money with them. I, for one, will be purchasing plenty and getting packages so the company can continue to thrive, build new ships, refit old ones, provide services and entertainment, and continue showing people the world.

RC should just charge the flat rate fee- they gotta stop nickeling and diming customers - adding restaurants that’s not apart of the package 📦. Just charge one flat rate and give us access to everything. Great video❤- 🙏🏾💯

The only other thing I would’ve mentioned about the Central Park Café is that the guy cuts roast beef for sandwiches which are free. They are very good. I know the video shows him cutting the roast beef, but I don’t think you mentioned that they are free sandwiches. Also, there was no mention of the location of soft serve ice cream, which is near one of the pools, I believe.

As a fellow Canadian we are always shocked when you can smoke inside the casinos on board! They had designated areas only to smoke in only - so only in the casino and in one area on the open deck.

Oh have a great time!! We made reservations most nights for my time on the app a few months before we sailed. Then if we arrived a bit early (even up to half an hour early) they would still seat us. So we never waited.

How much wear did you notice in the public spaces as well as the cabins? Oasis is getting up there in age. I recently sailed on twice and love it. We are planning a family group cruise. Oasis is an option because it's a little less costly than a sailing on Symphony. So, we are deciding between those two ships. But, I'm wondering if I will be disappointed since Symphony looks great in both the cabins and public areas and Oasis is older. Thanks.
@TheAverageTourist5 ай бұрын
We noticed a quite a bit. Especially in the buffet... so many of the chair seats were stained and in need of a clean. The dining room was dated too. Our cabin was also kind of dated looking especially in the bathroom and the wardrobe/desk area.

There is a difference between the rooms? I mean except from the rom himself, like if you take more expensive room you get a better package on the ship? More things included? Or all the rooms it's the same thing?
