Why Dont More People Cruise Oceania?

In doing my research for my Med cruise this summer, I was looking for a cruise that:
1. Went to Spain, France, italy, and Greece;
2. Provided great value for the money;
3. A cruise that was between 7 days and 12 days;
4. A cruise that didnt stop in a country I wouldnt feel safe.

After looking at the itineraries of all the cruise lines, I kept coming back to a cruise line that I had previously known very little about: Oceania! They offered a 2 for 1 price with "free airfare". They were actually less expensive than similar offerings on Princess, who I cruised with before and really love. The more research I did, the more I came away convinced that Oceania provides the best value of any cruise line today. They provide the luxury cruise line experience and yet dont charge the high rates that it typically costs to sail on a luxury line. As a matter of fact, they are cheaper than many mass market lines! I have read numerous reviews and countless internet threads talking about this little known cruise line. My question is: Why dont more people sail with the best kept secret in the cruise industry today, Oceania?
