[iammary]

Hello everyone! My family and I are boarding the cruise ship for the Western Med Cruise from 23-30 May 2024. We want to meet our fellow cruisers. Perhaps we can share information regarding arrangements for day excursions in Naples, Barcelona, Palma de Mallorca and Florence!  Thanks for reading!

Hello, you have May 23-30. Do you mean the May 26-June 2 cruise going out of Barcelona?

[Diesel]

We are on the May 19-26 sailing out of Barcelona.  It appears that there may be guests disembarking/embarking mid-cruise as there are 7-night sailings available on Oasis every 3 to 4 days alternating between Barcelona and Rome.

Yes it’s a week cruise from Barcelona and a week cruise from Rome. So new faces on the way

1st trip on an Oasis class ship. any suggestions?

[HAK1906]

Great cruise so far. Left out of Barcelona on May 26. We first went to Mallorca, Spain an Island close to Barcelona.  We went to the caves as our excursion we booked third party. Great time at the caves and worth it. We then to the CIty center close to the church. Very touristy but also very nice and welcoming. Great food in the open market.  Tomorrow is Florence. 

Went to the top tier event today at the Aqua Theatre  low attendance, but primarily due to the high winds and chilly outside  A little disappointed in Solarium Bistro for breakfast  hard to find a seat and did not seem to have as many choices also the Bistro doesn’t seem as large as those on Wonder and Symphony that we were accustomed to.

The Oasis is a great ship and the refurb in 2019 really makes the difference.  Look forward to eating at Portside BBQ for lunch today.   
 

This is our first non- Caribbean cruise but definitely enjoying.
