Merion_Mom Posted October 10, 2019 #6 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Oasis 6 is contracted for already. Perhaps that will be Melody?!?!? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaikG Posted October 10, 2019 #7 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Wonder of the Seas will be the 5th Oasis-class ship and the largest cruise ship in the world when she launches in 2021 and she will sail from Shanghai. Her announcement is in conjunction with RCCL China’s 10th anniversary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare little britain Posted October 10, 2019 #8 Share Posted October 10, 2019 How will she get from shipyard to Asia? Can she fit through the Suez? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hop77 Posted October 10, 2019 Author #9 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I hope she will be deployed to Singapore for a few sailings. Time to save some $$ in anticipation that it will come to Singapore. 🤗 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Ethanol95 Posted October 10, 2019 #14 Share Posted October 10, 2019 If Wonder is based in Shanghai, she can't be there for Winter, cause she's not built for the cold. So perhaps Singapore/Shanghai homeports? I don't think Hong Kong because of the political instability, and unlikely Australia if Wonder is being built specifically for the Asian market.

Wonder does not appear to be like any of the other O-class ships and we cannot assume that she won’t be a cold-weather ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can see from the image of Wonder, her top deck is quite similar to current oasis class ships, very open, not more like quantum if that makes sense? Also looking quite futuristic with the curves Edited October 10, 2019 by Ethanol95 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am surprised at Oasis for a cold weather climate like Shanghai in the winter... have they actually seen how cold it gets there! Oasis for a place like Singapore where it rains a lot seems strange to me too.... Edited October 10, 2019 by little britain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could do that, just don't know if the market will fill both ships. Was thinking about what happened to the NCL Joy, which started there but has since been repositioned with no replacement. Seems Singapore would be a better base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
