Midwest Cruiser Posted May 4, 2022 Report Share Posted May 4, 2022 To those that have sailed on both ships, which one is your favorite and why? We are currently booked on Wonder for Jan '23 8 night sailing in GS, We have sailed on Oasis(amped) and Symphony. Looking at possibly doing a date swap for Wonder which would lower the price for the GS and Book Oasis in the Awesome Ultra Panoramic Suite at a great price. Just trying to see what everyone's thoughts are on Wonder before we decide on sticking to the current sailing or doing the switch and add. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshleyDillo Posted May 4, 2022 Report Share Posted May 4, 2022 Wonder as a ship slightly edges out Oasis as my favorite. However, hands down, I'd go with the Star Class Oasis cabin over a Wonder GS any day. Moby Dick, KristiZ, RCIfan1912 and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
octaviocloss Posted May 4, 2022 Report Share Posted May 4, 2022 A Star Class experience would definitely out perform the ship for me; when i graduated from college i had the one and only chance to cruise as a star class guest (Loft on allure, it was a present); game changer experience.

Midwest Cruiser Posted May 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2022 More Background. We could move our Wonder GS sailing at $9500 Jan '23 to a November '23 $7200. And book a Oasis Ultra Panoramic for $10,900. That is where I see the biggest cost benefit to switch is for the Oasis we would be gaining the Drink package and Dining package. This alone on our Wonder sailing would increase the price of the GS to roughly $11400. Not to mention all the other perks of the Star class.

You probably already know this, but the Ultra Panoramic Suite, while a very nice suite, doesn't have a balcony but it does have great views. That may be Okay with you, it's just worth noting incase you didn't know it. Midwest Cruiser and RCIfan1912 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then you can tell us how much you enjoyed the UPS and Star Class! Midwest Cruiser 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will be missed but I am ok to drop that for this sailing to experience the UPS and have Star Class. This Oasis cruise would fall on roughly the 10 year anniversary of my wife and I's initial meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianB Posted May 5, 2022 Report Share Posted May 5, 2022 Was on the Wonder two weeks ago...and now on the Oasis. I love both! For me, it's impossible to choose one or the other! Sorry. Midwest Cruiser 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
