We are doing the Westbound TA next year, wasn't sure as we did want to wait a year and do the Allure TA but hopefully will do them both, have been on Oasis before so really looking forward to the sea days though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spyke5 Posted June 7, 2013 #9 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Hello all. Looking forward to being back on the Oasis again and with more days at sea this time I might even get to where I can stand up on the flow rider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyalDiamond Posted June 7, 2013 #10 Share Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) Peter and Jim from Chicago are booked. However, I don't know if we'll stay on it or not. We also have the Quantum transatlantic booked on 11/2/14. So, we may have to cancel one of them. Hopefully not, and we'll do both, but we'll have to wait and see.... We are booked to board in Rotterdam and not Southampton. Peter Edited June 7, 2013 by RoyalDiamond added info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisehabits Posted July 9, 2013 #11 Share Posted July 9, 2013 We're on board as well!.....from Miami, FL. Looking forward to this cruise. It will be our first TransAtlantic and sounds like a lot of fun. The thread I was following on the RCCL forum is out of control and getting difficult to follow. We will be boarding the ship in Rotterdam. Does anyone have suggestions about the best way of pre-planning? What are the best routes to fly....go direct to Amsterdam or Rotterdam. What are some good places to stay, etc. If anyone has any helpful information it would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomjohnsonjr Posted July 9, 2013 #12 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Hello I am Tom from Jupiter Florida. I will be staying 3 nights at the Renaissance Amsterdam and the morning of the cruise taking the train to meet the ship.

I will be staying 3 nights at the Renaissance Amsterdam and the morning of the cruise taking the train to meet the ship. Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Hi Tom! Thanks for the response! Have you decided on your flight itinerary yet? Where are you going to fly out of? I know it is too early yet for booking. I wonder what 1 way ticket prices to Amsterdam will be? I will certainly go over early. I was planning on perhaps 2 days and then take the train over. I would really like to keep in touch. That way I can get additional information from you. I am not familiar with the train system, etc. and would have some questions. Thanks again for the response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomjohnsonjr Posted July 9, 2013 #14 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I am sorry that's another fight I just booked. It is to early to book for our cruise now. I find that the best pricing for a one way ticket is with the cruise line (Choice Air). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisehabits Posted July 13, 2013 #19 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Mike & Jeff from definitely sunny Wales (at the mo!) are thinking of joining you but prices seem bit high now? :rolleyes: Some of our friends have booked too..... Hey there Mike and Jeff! Yes prices have gone up since the TA was announced and went on sale. From my experience it really could go either way. Prices may come down if bookings lack or people decide not to make final payment. They may also go up...you can never really tell. My suggestion would be to book if you have the money for a downpayment now and see how it goes. If the price drops RCCL has always refunded me the difference and if it drops after final payment the difference has been added as an on board credit.. We usually book an ocean view balcony. We booked an inside stateroom this time (hoping to not regret that decision). Considering we will fly over and stay a few nights in a hotel, I figured the difference would help pay for that. After all we really do not spend all that much time in the room on the balcony when we have. We are excited about going on a TA. It is something new for us and we really like the Oasis :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its about £1300 for an inside at the moment, & of course we would have to stay a few nights in Fort Lauderdale at the end. :D Another positive I would celebrate my birthday on board.......:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Mike and Jeff, are you enjoying the 'summer'? we booked when it first opened, only an inside, but we've been on Oasis before and there is so much to do we hardly spent any time in the cabin, we always book directly with Royal as they do still honour price drops for Brits, someone I know books directly with an american TA and then has the freedom to cancel and get his deposit back, email me if you want and I will tell you the website (no allowed to mention TA names on here), its richcoryton at hotmail dot com Where in Wales are you, we live in Rhoose not far from Cardiff.

MisterMom Posted July 28, 2013 #24 Share Posted July 28, 2013 (Duplicate post from the main roll call and THRILLED that this tread was started) Hello all- Dan (39) and Derrell (52) (the Double D's) here from the Atlanta, GA area. We got back last week from the Oasis Eastern Caribbean and, for the first time, signed up for a future cruise while onboard. We LOVE the Oasis so what better way to experience it than on this TA! This'll be our 3rd time sailing her. I've been dying to share some of the pics I took with some fellow Oasis fans so here are a couple of my favs - Looking forward to a great cruise!
