What do you want to know about Oasis of the Seas AND Turku, Finland?

[kthy66]

I am so excited about this ship!

 

 

Just feel like dancing!..

 

so how many dance venues will there be on the ship.. have you seen any of those areas yet?

[MINIDRVR]

RCI is phasing out art auctions! Well, on Oasis of the Seas anyway.

 

There will be no controversial art auctions, but there will be an art gallery which will sell work from artists.

 

We are told there will be a wide range of art available -- from originals to postcards.

 

This is the best news ever........with all the folks that have been taken a chance on bidding on art work that they know NOTHING about plus don't realize that they are bidding against someone who is suppose to drive up the price we think this is Good Press for RCCL and hope they'll kick them off of the rest of their ships........

Hi Lynda...not much to see yet, but this top photo is the one Carolyn was referring to.

 

Thanks honey bunny!! My sister is so excited, she won't find out where the ceremony will be held until 2 weeks before the date.....she and her fiance are driving down to FLL to tour the ship and select up to 3 sites but no guarantee that they'll get it.

I was wondering what happened. I've had this thread open for days and I refreshed and suddenly it was gone. I refound it from a link on the picture page that was posted earlier today.

Carolyn we really like how they've changed the closet/bathroom config........is this the same for Central Park/Boardwalk/Balcony cabins?

 

We hated having to mess with all the door situation on the other ships....it seemed like when the closet doors where open the other was coming out or trying to do into the bathroom.......

 

We did like the way Caribbean Princess had the closet which made a little dressing area and you weren't standing right in the hallway :)

 

Also like the idea of reserving the theater seating before boarding as well....Makes a lot of sense.

These are probably not much different than junior suites on existing ships, but I really loved this one! Plenty of space, extra long balcony, bathtub in the bathroom and walk in closet.

A really big THANK YOU for posting all the pictures in one location........now my DH can see them without having to go thru the entire thread.......http://www.cruisecritic.com/articles.cfm?ID=998

Can't afford an AquaTheater suite (balcony shots coming later this weekend)? There are lounging areas for all on Decks 10, 12 and 14 -- check out the views! Two here, two in the next post.

Take a look at these two photos -- they're of the balcony outside one of the two loft suites. See how deep the balcony is?

 

Here's one shot

 

And another

 

Hey Carolyn, are these two photos of the two sides of the corner loft suite?

Oh that is really nice......Maybe one of these days we'll get one of them.........

Did you say that all the beds now have Pillow Tops? Sure they will have to be replaced more often tho. They should still be pretty good by our cruise in Sept 2010 tho. :)

Do you mean decks 11, 12, and 14? Deck 10 has a suite.

--If you don't want to miss a show on Oasis, then you can reserve seats for the entertainment! You can do it pre-cruise, online or onboard at the ship's box office. Entry is still free though.

 

So much for sponteneity (sp?). Also, so much for equal opportunity for everyone - I'm sure suite/Diamond++/etc. will get priorty/better/etc. seats, so all those poor slobs on their first cruise in an interior cabin will get shafted. No thanks.

:) Oh, I thought it would be the other way around so that EVERYONE would get a chance for nice seats.....

They reserv some of the center seats now for those that are paying more for their cabins so I wouldn't think it would be any different.

The theater is rather large and good viewing from any seat....maybe they should think about putting in a jumbo TV for those that might be sitting in the nose bleed area tho :eek:

Ok, how do I get to see the daily blogs for the Oasis of the sea. I am really wanting to see pictures of the rooms but have no idea how to look a the blog. thanks

Hi Carolyn, We are in 11729, right next to the glass widows, what is on the other side of the windows? I can see the oppisite cabin that I am in but just curios what those windows are for, I hope it is my TV Room? HA HA! :)

Thank you. :)

 

Oh my, the closets in a standard balcony look like those on the Celebrity Solstice.... very hard to get into with the sofa there. The bathrooms also look pretty small. I wonder what the difference there is between the D1 and D8 would be? We got the D1 hope all the rooms aren't alike like the Solstice, with only the bathroom configeration different. We did a cabin crawl and found out the differences of the different cabins. Thanks for posting the pictures of the Oasis.

[lscott933]

New for Oasis and announced today is the Chef's table at the Concierge Lounge. Dinner will be paired with wine and there is space for only 14 pasengers. The cost? $70 per person.

 

Is this a reaction to Princess's Chef's Table?

[Texas Teen]

Amazing pictures! Oasis of the Seas is REALLY shaping up now! :D Can we see pictures of the inside of an Aquatheater suite? WOW

[MALA]

I'd love to see more pictures onboard of oasis of the seas taken during the august 27-28, 2009 tour.

[baileygee]

Thank you for the amazing pictures! Is there any information on how to book the chef's table?
