berkeleykel Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 What have people's experiences been on Oasis class in chilly weather (thinking spring/fall in Europe, weather generally in the 60's)? I haven't nearly finished planning my cruise that starts in 17 days (!) and already this board has me excited to try an Oasis class ship next year. For various reasons, the only itinerary that works out is the 7 night Western Mediterranean from Barcelona on Allure (going to Marseilles, Rome, Naples etc) in mid October 2020. Google tells me mid-October along the Med we'd be looking at an average high temp in the high 60's or low 70's. Factor that in with shorter days, ocean breeze, and the chance of getting weather on the lower side of the average, and I think it could make for quite a chilly cruise. It would probably be nice weather while touring the ports, but I'm worried it would take away from enjoying all of the amenities of the ship itself and thus the whole point of me making an Oasis class booking. The Oasis class ships (as opposed to Quantum in particular) seem to really be geared toward open air and the outdoors. If it were low or mid 60's, do they still do shows in the Aqua Theater? Do people still use the pools (are they heated) and Flow Rider etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted August 29, 2019 Report Share Posted August 29, 2019 The nice thing about chilly weather is you feel open to doing more outdoors, especially on shore. Whereas in warmer months you would get sweaty, tired and uncomfortable, with cooler weather, you may be more open to time outdoors.

berkeleykel Posted August 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 Thanks, @Matt . One of the first things I noticed about this board that I think is fairly unique is the fact that no new topics go unanswered. You seem to make a real effort to help everyone. Appreciate it.
