Mrs. Thomas

I couldn't find it. I'll have to look again.... thanks

Just wondering if anyone has been on an 8 night Eastern Caribbean cruise on Oasis recently and can upload their Cruise Compass to the site? I'm trying to get an idea of the menu and dress for our upcoming cruise. The only 8 nighter was for Southern Caribbean and it's different from what my app says the menus will be. The app also says the MDR will be closed the last night or two which doesn't make any sense. Any ideas? TIA

Can you do one of breakfast menus, even if it's just the menu?

What's the opinion on Breezy Bay? The RCB video says that it has some games that look fun for my kiddos. However, my parents are 70 and will just be "beach bums" mostly. Is it crowded at all? Are those funnel cakes actually pretty good? We love them, but they are so expensive here at home during the summer. It would be nice to get one while we are on vacay.

On my first cruise I had an issue with feeling "stuck" on sea days. I was on Allure and would go walking in Central Park and it would help me feel like I was on land again. If you want to forget you are in the open ocean, it isn't hard to do with all of the inside things you can do. The Oasis class has so many things to keep busy that it's easy to forget your are on a ship or in the ocean.

My apologies, we're headed to Port Everglades. Kept doing some digging and I think they do, at least I hope so.

We are renting a van one way to the port. Has anyone rented a car from Hertz? Do they have a shuttle that would get me back to the port or will I need to get an Uber? TBH, I've never gotten an Uber so that kinda makes me nervous. TIA

I would just make sure that you don't need a passport specifically for Bermuda. I know with the Caribbean loop cruises you don't need one. If you don't need one then all you need is the birth certificate. I kind of have the same issue with my daughter except we have never had the same last name. So, I am taking birth certificates and my marriage certificate so they can see the name change for me. To be completely sure, I would call RC and make sure that they don't need a passport. There are ways to get around court and trying to get him to sign, but it isn't easy.

When I was there in 2013, my husband and I walked from the port towards town. There were some little tent type things set up near Drakes Passage with so cute things that we got. It reminded me of local flea markets here at home. They were locals and the prices were fair. I'm just not sure if it will be set up the same way. How will we know if the taxi are hop on hop off? I need to make sure my Mom and daughter are clear about things. I also don't want them taken advantage of.

Headed to St. Thomas at the first of April, my mom and daughter want to do some shopping. Where is the best place for souvenirs and such that won't be overpriced? TIA

This question kind of relates... My kiddos are in one cabin and my husband and I are in another. Can we just request the moving of the mattress how we need them when we get on the ship? Are they "light enough" to maybe move them ourselves?

That's why we drive. It's a 12hr drive, yes, but it's much cheaper than flying. We also don't mind. I know that not everyone can do that, but it works for us. I just don't want to have to pay for an Icon class ship just because I want to go on a week cruise. I'll definitely be looking at the smaller ships in order to save money. Which, they go to some places the bigger ship don't due to size and that is a plus.

I actually get the cheaper poo-pourri from Dollar General and it works great. I'll definitely grab it and the febreeze. Thank you everyone for the help and the laugh!

I'm not sure my husband will bother with the poo-pourri, that's why I want to make sure they won't confiscate my Lysol spray because it's an aerosol.

Ok, this isn't the most "lady-like" topic, but I need to be real for a moment so I can be prepared. Everyone has to go and sometimes it stinks. Are you able to bring something like Febreeze or Lysol spray with you? We are staying in an inside cabin and I don't care to have it unlivable if something doesn't agree with my husband's stomach. TIA!

@PG Cruiser Thank you for posting the mocktails. I'm cruising in April and looking to have a few and even let my kiddos have one.

I'm sure this has been answered before, but do you have to take a picture for check in? I want to check in early and make sure all 6 of us getting the same boarding time. However, my parents won't be around in order for me to get a picture of them. I'll be able to upload their information just fine. Can I just take a picture of them later? Can I upload one that I have saved? TIA

I know this is going to depend on how much you spend in ports and such, but what is a good general amount of spending money to take on a cruise to the Caribbean? We have 3 port stops besides Perfect Day. We plan on getting a taxi in St. Thomas for 4 people (one in a wheelchair). We also are doing the Carambola Beach Break at St. Kitts. I'm not sure how the lunch works there, if it's included or not. I don't think it is though. There are 6 of us total. I mostly want to make sure we have enough for what is needed off the ship. Buying souvenirs can just depend on what isn't spent on food and the taxi in St. Thomas. Any help with this is GREATLY appreciated! TIA

Thank you so much for these!! I am very much a visual person and you are helping so much for my upcoming trip.

If dropping in the fall is the pattern then I'll have to see if they are available this fall. I hope to get a good price for 2027.

I'm waiting to see the June 2027 sailings to Bermuda myself. Looks like it will be awhile for me as well.

I'm starting to think that my first trip on Oasis is going to consist of a good bit of time in the Solarium. I enjoyed the one on Allure. I can't wait to see how Oasis will be.

There is actually a sale going on now. However, like @WAAAYTOOO stated, the percentage hasn't got anything to do with the actual pricing. I looked at the price I paid for the soda package which was 30% off at the time and what it is now at the same percentage. I still paid less before, even with it being the same 30% off. I've decided that my daughter won't be getting the package. She can have one or two al a carte. She'll live.

I'm wanting to get the refreshments package for my daughter and I for our upcoming April trip. Right now it shows 20% off. Do they usually have anymore sales between now and the first of April? I really do my best to save as much as possible. TIA

My biggest fear is getting to the port and not having ANY of the paperwork we need to board. This go around it's even worse because of the name situation with my daughter. However, I've done extensive research and even contacted RC personally and we shouldn't have a problem. I will be taking all of the birth certificates and my marriage certificate just in case. I'm also concerned that we will have a medical emergency or that my people won't have a good time (specifically my Dad and daughter). Guess I'm a bit of a worry wart this time.
