They will just use a microwave for the pre-packaged meats....🙄

Who said it was going to be good?🤔

I went on a carnival ship 2 years ago with the guy’s pig and anchor bbq. 

To me the Meat didn’t taste smoked at all. Didn’t have a smoke ring just tasted like it was grilled . Then again nothing on that ship tasted good except for the burgers and the tacos/burritos.

Some of those folks can't do math, as sometimes it's cheaper to fly to Florida and cruise than leave from lovely Bayonne.

That does happen a lot if you can cruise anytime of the year. When I say most people can’t afford to fly and cruise it’s usually a family with kids which means they can only go on vacation during the summer season July/August, Spring break and Christmas break which never have specials available like the kids sail free. I’m usually a Royal cruiser 90% of the time and if I look at prices in Florida they are usually just a tad bit cheaper then NYC prices. Then the flights to Florida during those times are usually $600 per person and up. I’ve done 3 out of 6 cruises from Florida. They have always been more expensive then NYC cruises because of flights. The only reason why I still took them was because the port stops are that much better. So I payed a premium.

If Oasis is successful in NJ next summer, I imagine one of the Oasis Class ships continues to do summers there with 7 night sailings to The Bahamas, while a Quantum Class stays there year round, doing Bermuda in the summer. 

I live in NJ and There are so many people I know who I talk to about cruising that cannot afford to fly to Florida and cruise. There are enough people to sell out the Oasis and a Quantum class ship in NY area full time And i believe they would sell out most of the year. The one issue I have with an Oasis ship leaving from here is that it’s not a cold weather ship. I hate being stuck inside for the first 2-3 days of a cruise because of cold weather. I already live in cold weather and the last thing I want is to do is go on vacation and have cold weather unless it’s an Alaska type cruise. That’s why unless they created an indoor pool area on oasis they can’t have it year round in NYC.

Does anyone know where i can find the dinner menu's for all 9 nights?

So we booked around September of last year fro Seaside this July and have the Drinks on Us package.  Our reservation is Me, my wife, my mother, my sister, and my 2 kids (6 and 3) in one of the family double cabins.  I am the only one really interested in upgrading but my wife would do it too if we had to.   I was told by an MSC representative one of the million times I've called that if you upgrade the package at checkin before you board, they can shift adults assigned to specific cabin numbers and then upgrade the adults in only one of the cabins that are connected in the family cabin (even though it is technically supposed to be all adults on the reservation).  So I have a couple questions...

 

1) Has anyone had any success doing this? We are under the same reservation but technically are staying in two cabins with the connecting door open.  So has anyone in this situation been able to upgrade only the people assigned to one cabin?

2) Would MSC let me switch so that I am assigned to one cabin number with the two kids and assign the other three adults to the second cabin and then let me upgrade alone?

That sounds weird.i know cruise employees are supposed to be accommodating but man that’s really going out of the way. Hopefully it can be done. I have a question for you about the package. When you booked it did everyone on the reservation get the packages included? Or is it just the first 2 people in the room? Cause usually that’s how most promo’s work.

Did the 9-day Anthem last month, which turned into a 10-day due to medical emergency.  Formal nights are night 2 and night 8...they are both sea days. 

Do they still do the free lobster tail during formal night? If they do which night is it?
