We are booked on the inaugural cruise for the Oasis Of The Seas. We are doing the 4 night Dec. 1st. & the 7 night Dec. 5th. I'm so glad I get to do all 11 nights. I was afraid 7 nights wouldn't be enough time to experience all of the ship.
I am sooooo excited I can't wait !!!
This ship is so innovative & should just be awesome.

I'm curious who is booked, plans to book or won't book a cruise on Oasis.

I'll look at booking sometime in 2010. I have a personal policy of not getting on a new ship on it's inaugural voyage.

I won't, just too big for me. I'm sure she will be loved by a lot of cruisers, but I am just too old fashioned and cruise for the ship and relaxation. The bells and whistles are not important for us.

I'm hoping to book someday. Right now the $$ seems a bit out of sight.

I would just love to see how a day at sea would be. My wife thinks the ship is to big.

As Sue said lots of bells and whistles. Are there Charges for most of the venues?.

Embarkation and debarkation wouldn't it be a nightmare?

Can you imagine looking for a lounge chair by the pool.

Wish I could join you have a great trip

Jim, we did FOS and it was really fairly easy on all accounts.

For us, the Oasis OTS is too big. Even though the ship is our destination, rather than the ports of call, I still like to feel that I'm on a ship. This is too much like a floating community to suite me.

So, no, we won't be booking this ship or her sisters.

I voted "not sure".
Like many others have said, its to large. I want my ships to be ships not floating cities. I would never fly to Florida to cruise onboard the Oasis. If I was to fly "so far" I would rather sail on another ship.
Then again, it is revolutionary, it is very innovative and I am facinated and amazed at what they can manage to build.
I would probably book a cruise onboard if the Oasis sailed in Europe??? Maybe if CLF sponsored a fam. trip for me???? Tim?? Stews?? Anyone....No???...

HA only if we got to go

all of us ofcourse.
