Sweety Posted December 4, 2023 Report Share Posted December 4, 2023 (edited) I am thinking about booking Oasis for 2025. Please tell me the cons and pros. I have been on Allure three times. I always wanted to go on the Oasis. Edited December 4, 2023 by Sweety double the Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCSC Mike Posted December 4, 2023 Report Share Posted December 4, 2023 My general statement would be if you like one Oasis class ship, you'll like them all, you just may have most or least favorites depending upon personal preferences. Pros and cons are subjective. The lack of amped features on Allure are a pro for some and a con for others. The differences are stuff like slides on Oasis that aren't on Allure, Playmakers on Oasis instead of Sabor, Portside BBQ on Oasis (people seem to like it, I've never tried it), Crown Lounge is much nicer on Allure b/c it's in the old location, not in the basement (if that applies or matters), the shows are obviously different if that matters, etc. I'm not trying to blow you off but my first statement sums up my feelings. If you want to try Oasis, I see zero reason not to. Sweety, asquared17, RCIfan1912 and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really enjoy this ship and will be sailing her 2024 for NYE on the S. Caribbean route! Sweety 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ampurp85 Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 @Vancity Cruiser is 100% correct Portside and Playmakers are top notched. Aqua 80s is the best aqua show. Vancity Cruiser, WAAAYTOOO, Peter D and 6 others 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asquared17 Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 so, prior to going on symphony, oasis was our favorite in the class. portside is a nice grab and go option, the ship is older but still has its charm, and there are still gnomes in central park!!! (i think) we are set to sail on her sunday!! i’d recommend her Sweety and Ampurp85 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnK6404 Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 I agree with the group. We've sailed Allure and Oasis and prefer Oasis overall post amplification (except for Cats ... Mamma Mia! was much better). Ampurp85 and Sweety 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweety Posted December 5, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 I have decided to wait until February 2024 when the rest of the cruise schedule is released. I will be on Vision, December 2023 and I will visit next cruise, OCSC Mike and JohnK6404 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my plan all along as I was never interested in Star (or Icon). However, as I've posted numerous times since I'm the resident weirdo who is content to sail on Wonder over and over to the same ports just b/c I can drive to PC in an hour and I did really like Wonder... Common sense says that Wonder will continue doing the 7N's out of PC until Star takes over in August. Since Wonder wasn't released with the earlier 6-8N Caribbean ships, it doesn't technically fit into any of the remaining categories. Its 3/4's should be released the week of 2/12 so its remaining 7N's could also be released that week... or the week after with the "other Caribbean"... or at some random time in between now and then.
