Rare Koohiichan Posted December 21, 2014 #1 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Hello! Our family is going on Oasis in January. Our daughter is fearful of "Characters," Mascots, basically anyone is a character suit. I know that there are character appearances on Oasis at certain times and during parades, but are they fairly easy to avoid? We can avoid the parades and areas during appearances. We have avoided these ships in the past just for this reason, but as you all know, when you exit any ship they seems to have some kind of creature there (dolphin, Sea Captain) etc. and we now know to anticipate that and so far we have been okay just quickly heading the other direction. However, just knowing how prevalent the characters are, would help. Do they randomly show up a dining venues? What kind of situation are we dealing with? Thanks!

Koohiichan Yes, they are easy to avoid, but keep your eyes open. They changed this a little between my 2011 cruise and 2013 cruise. There are a few more random appearances that time. Easy enough to avoid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiCSailor Posted December 21, 2014 #3 Share Posted December 21, 2014 On quantum the location and time was indicated in the compass; so as the others have said it should be easy to dodge them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandma Dazzles Posted December 22, 2014 #5 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Agree that they are easy to avoid as far as parades and scheduled appearances - otherwise never saw much of them. Just check the cruise compass for the schedule. One heads up - check what day the character breakfast is in the main dining room. You have to make a reservation for it so obviously you wouldn't do that but if you decided to eat there you would definitely see them. They kind of keep the group with the reservations together and the characters visit just those tables, but they are in close proximity. Easy to eat elsewhere that day.

maureencruiser Posted December 22, 2014 #6 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I have also run into characters in the elevators. They do have to get to where the appearances are being held. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterBill99 Posted December 22, 2014 #7 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I have also run into characters in the elevators. They do have to get to where the appearances are being held.I'm pretty sure they have crew elevators that could be used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lionesss Posted December 22, 2014 #8 Share Posted December 22, 2014 We also saw some of the characters around the pool the day of the Make a Wish walk. If you distract the child you should have no problem. Sea Ya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
