darketower Posted November 9, 2019 Report Share Posted November 9, 2019 Can't wait to hear about the "new" Oasis - we are scheduled on her for next August! MicroBeta 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MicroBeta Posted November 9, 2019 Report Share Posted November 9, 2019 I saw on Facebook that she's been floated off. That indicates to me that the majority of the heavy work is completed. I would have loved to spend so time running around that dry dock. It's orders of magnitude larger than the ones we have where I work. The crane system alone is amazing. It's pretty close to first sailing in November. I hope they make it...although I'll be willing to bet they'll make it even if they have to put off some items to a later availability.

I guess I will find out on the 24th. I highly doubt that they would make any structural changes to the cabins. I would be happy if they updated the furniture and decor. Also, there are many people out there who love that Oasis and Allure don't have the wall. When Harmony came out, many complained that the wall in the GS made the room see a lot smaller.

However, I haven't seen anything saying Oasis is underway. EDIT: I just checked a ship tracker and the Oasis is currently moored.

twangster Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 Miami is tidal. Oasis class can only arrive or depart nearer high tide during certain periods of extreme tidal swings (super or king tides). That can make scheduling challenges. Port Everglades is not tidal to the extent it impacts ship movements. It's an easier port for Oasis class to operate from. They can come and go whenever. For a few days of non-standard operations where the guest terminal experience doesn't matter Port Everglades is a logical choice.
