elvismeggi Posted March 28, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 28, 2013 That I have read at Cruise Critic newsletter: World's Largest Cruise Ship Coming to UK and Europe for First Time The world's largest cruise ship will make its debut call in Southampton in October 2014, as revealed by Cruise Business Review yesterday (Tue. 26). Royal Caribbean's 225,282-ton, 5,400-passenger Oasis of the Seas will leave Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, its home port since December 2009, on 1 September 2014 on a 12-night eastbound transatlantic cruise to Barcelona. It will offer two five-night round-trip cruises from the Spanish port, followed by a seven-night sailing to Rotterdam. Oasis will then head into dry dock in the Netherlands for routine maintenance for two weeks, departing from Rotterdam on 14 October and calling at Southampton the next day. The ship will return to its home port of Port Everglades on a 12-night westbound transatlantic cruise on 15 October, where U.K. passengers can join the ship to sail across the Atlantic. http://www.royalcaribbeanpresscenter...urope-in-2014/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I-Cruiser Posted March 28, 2013 #2 Share Posted March 28, 2013 (edited) Good news isn't it:) We are "all" waiting for the pricing of the cruises. I have my eyes set on one of the 5 days Western Med cruises or the 7 days from Barcelona to Rotterdam. There are a few threads about this already here on CC;) Edited March 28, 2013 by I-Cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumisid Posted March 28, 2013 #3 Share Posted March 28, 2013 We will probably book the 12-night westbound transatlantic in October. Oasis is so much fun, it's probably one of the best ships for TA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jarz85 Posted March 28, 2013 #10 Share Posted March 28, 2013 (edited) I have a feeling the 5 nights are going to cost wayyy more than a current 7 day Caribbean cruise. I hope the westbound TA isn't too expensive.. sure the Oasis is awesome but I'm not paying a really steep price considering I can go on the Epic for <$1500 for a balcony room Edited March 28, 2013 by jarz85 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I first thought they would be cheaper as 2 nights less but then remembered Med is prob more expensive and the demand is going to be high so they will charge a premium I suspect. I hate waiting!!! Even worse that we're going to be on a cruise when we can book in the Caribbean so will ask Parents to book for us or try onboard Celebrity Eclipse when they're desk opens.

missminnie Posted March 28, 2013 #13 Share Posted March 28, 2013 this its woirth calling royal caribbean and asking them for a ballpark figure? or do they generally keep everythng quiet tll the day? I contacted my usual person at RCI who's brilliant and even he can't advise me what the prices are yet. He's promised to email me when he knows but says they haven't been told yet or even when they are being released. But if someone else wants to try then by all means go ahead and keep us in the loop.

There are a few other threads discussing the prices. I think the prices for the Med will be higher than the Caribbean prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
