Oasis of the Seas | Dec. 27th - New Years Cruise!

Anyone going? We have a small group heading to the Caribbean for New Years!

Hey!

3 of us coming along!! Can't wait! gonna be a blast!:)

30 year old couple here, traveling with another couple similar in age, and a couple of singles.

So far away, but excited!

One couple (31/41) and a friend (31), from Toronto, you guys?

Planning any excursions? I think we are just gonna stroll around the few stops and maybe hit a beach in St.Maarten unless we come across something that sounds fun.

3 couples now, and a few singles. All from Los Angeles.

We don't have any excursions planned yet, I've been to all 3 places so most likely just roaming around and hitting the beaches!

My family and I just booked on this sailing. I am single, 47. I am very excited to be back on the Oasis, but am a little upset at the all changes they've made at dry dock.

Has anyone else tried to reserve shows?

I find it ridiculous that "CATS" is only showing on one day - at 2 PM or 8:30 PM the day of departure. For those of us with late dining, that leaves only the 2 PM show, which means we will probably have to rush through lunch or miss it entirely, and then go to the muster drill immediately after the show.

I won't be going to see Cats. Rather have dinner and drinks with friends.

Lot's of other dinner options if you want to see the late show -- or skip a meal -- on a 7 day cruise everyone can afford to skip one.

What do you mean by changes at dry dock? (Sorry, I'm not super cruise savvy)

They've made several changes to the Oasis including adding cabins and modifying some shops and restaurants. What most bother me is the removal of the Viking Crown Lounge, which used to be open to everyone and is now a dedicated Suite only lounge and restaurant. The spaces that were formerly used as a chapel and a quiet lounge are being turned into suites. The "secret" balconies located aft on decks 11, 12 and 14 are also being converted into suites. These were nice outdoor spaces to watch the sea in case you had an indoor cabin. I'm hoping they don't make any changes to the Sun Deck - that's a great space to hang out on as well.

I am surprised that no one else has signed up for the Cruise Critic/Royal Caribbean Meet & Mingle for our sailing. I just registered my family group of 13 people, but we need 12 more for RCI to set this up.

Here is the link to register if you are interested:
