Beachdreams99 Posted June 9, 2022 #1 Share Posted June 9, 2022 This is likely a stupid question but we haven't sailed in a while and are trying to pick one. We have several that we like on different ships. We want our older teens to look and see which they think they'd prefer and they wondered if there was a quick link where you could do a side by side comparison. I know Carnival has this because my friends showed me but I couldn't find one for Royal Caribbean and that is the line we have always done. It would be easier than writing down the differences. I googled before posting but haven't turned up anything. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have your teens do a Youtube ship walk through of you possible choices. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matj2000 Posted June 10, 2022 #3 Share Posted June 10, 2022 I did a simple web search and found multiple sites that did ship comparisons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a basic comparison. https://creative.rccl.com/Sales/Royal/General_Info/2022-2023_Fleet_Guide.pdf This should also help if you need more details. It's mostly up to date. http://creative.rccl.com/Sales/Royal/General_Info/19071197_Fleet_Guide_by_Ship_2020.pdf 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've sailed on 4 of the different classes but I would have thought Wonder would have been Quantum Class rather than Oasis - who knew?!

Cruise a holic Posted June 10, 2022 #6 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Overall, our favorite ships when traveling with family including teens is the Oasis class. Has all of the bells and whistles, and wonderful promenade and great entertainment. We preferred this class to the others, including Quantum class which IMO ruined the promenade. Enjoy your cruise.

Learned when looking at ships just because it's listed on the ship doesn't mean it's the same as another ship. First thing that comes to mind is the pool areas and the things within it. Which is why it's important to actually get further information than a check list. Example Brilliance and Harmony both will have slides but are drastically different. Even the teenage clubs are going to vary wildly but it will have a check in the box that a teenage club area exists. Also to add you are going to have things like Bumper Cars on the Quantum but it's limited hours and can have long lines to when they do offer it. Which is not something a simple list will provide.

loman Posted June 10, 2022 #10 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Do an Oasis class and you will probably satisfy all the cruisers . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because it's an Esplanade. 😉 It is different. It is not supposed to be the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deliver42 Posted June 10, 2022 #13 Share Posted June 10, 2022 There are no parades to worry about on Quantum ships. It's just a shopping mall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
