Oasis. I looked at previous compasses and they show it as open for lunch on sea days. It's not really a big deal either way, but it'd be nice to know so we can plan.

I'm going on my cruise with the rest of my family. We're divided up into 3 families. We're planning to have dinner together each night in the MDR. However, my friend and I were hoping to catch Izumi Sushi. I've checked on the app and it only lists its hours as dinner time, but some have told me that it's open for lunch during sea days. 

Is that true?

Thank you!

When I was there for my nails I asked what the special would be for the next day and they told me, but I'm not sure they'd give you the specials for the entire trip.

I'm not sure either. However, someone told me that if you take the tour, they're likely to at least give you an idea. Since we plan to take the tour anyway, it can't hurt to ask!

The last masseuse did not honor her request about the no upsell which she did state on the front end and was pretty aggressive even after the request (per Mrs Fan).  She is an introvert, so has a hard time with pushy people. Now her mind is set that the hassle is not worth the reward. Shame on them. 

That is a shame. Not on the part of masseuses because they literally can't help the environment they work in, but shame on RC for making them feel as if they have to be that pushy at their job. I'm sure that they're under immense pressure to upsell. Always a bummer. 

I'll be up front with mine.  Thanks for the heads-up, everyone! 

@Ampurp85 Thank you so much! That's about what they cost where I am, so that's not terrible. I just wanted to get an idea.

@FireFishII The massage treatment type services are about the same on ship as they are at spas where I am, so that's good to know! I did notice that the salon prices are much higher, but I'm taking care of that before we leave, so I should be fine! Thank you! 

@MJ_Can you check with the spa to find out what the specials might be to give you an idea of when you might want to book a certain treatment?

Good Morning! 

I was wondering if anyone could advise me as to what the prices look like for the spa? 

I know they fluctuate and that there are often specials, but I just want to get an idea for budgeting purposes. I will be on Oasis in June of 2023 so I can't see any information in my cruise planner quite yet. But, I want to make sure that my budget is reasonable. 

Thank you!

you still select a boarding time at check in but a couple weeks before the cruise you will get an email that tells you you can board with the Key at (usually 11:30 after suite guests) or keep your scheduled time. When you get to the port there will be plenty of signs and dedicated lines for the Key. Priority Embarkation is one of the best Key perks. 

Okay. So if we get an earlier check-in time through the app we can opt to use that or we can use the key if it's the earlier of the two? 

Hello! My family is headed out on this cruise too! We're going for my parents' 45th anniversary. (Happy Anniversary to you and your wife, too, btw!) 

My cabin consists of myself and my friend George. 

My parents are in another cabin, and my sister, brother-in-law, and their 2 teenagers are in adjoining cabins further down. 

I haven't been on a cruise since High School. I am pumped to go as an adult (with a beverage package haha). 

Hello, all! 

My family is headed out on Oasis in June 2023. Since we were all going to purchase the surf + stream internet packages, my parents purchased everyone The Key. 

I see that with The Key, the boarding time is between 11:30-12:30. Does this mean that it doesn't matter what our boarding time we get when we check in? Can we use whichever one is better? 

Thank You!
