Hflors Posted May 10, 2009 #28 Share Posted May 10, 2009 How many passengers will she carry? And how many crew? I'm not a "fan" of large ships, but I may just need to cruise on her once. Those pics are amazing!!!!! I think her name is appropiate "Oasis of the Seas" is right! Or maybe they should have named her "Oasis from the World" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvery Seas Cruiser Posted May 10, 2009 #30 Share Posted May 10, 2009 It must have to do with age. The old timers can't handle change.:eek: Don't know who you are calling an "old timer." Hubby and I are 65 and we both are very eager to sail on Oasis. The ship is: AWESOME! I CAN'T WAIT!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighlandCruzer Posted May 10, 2009 #32 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Haha. Pretty cool that the Ambassador to Finland got a tour of Oasis. I guess there are some perks to the job that just can't be passed up. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kruzerci Posted May 10, 2009 #34 Share Posted May 10, 2009 I think it's going to be great for families and many people will like it, I just think it's too big for my taste. I can't see it feeling like you being on a cruise. Voyager class is my favorite and I like Freedom class, but even Freedom is a little big for me. I just can't see a ship that's three times the size of Radiance feeling like a ship. I think it just depends on what you like about cruising, I like the "at sea" feeling, not the amusement park. But it really does look exciting for yall that are into the mega-mega ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexis Posted May 10, 2009 #35 Share Posted May 10, 2009 That is what that step stool is for! LOL:D If I see a crew member go by on stilts, I will know they either work in the laundry room, or are a Clown in the Parade. ;) :D Or do both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catnip Posted May 10, 2009 #36 Share Posted May 10, 2009 I just think it's too big for my taste. I can't see it feeling like you being on a cruise. I think it just depends on what you like about cruising, I like the "at sea" feeling, not the amusement park. That sums up exactly how I feel. I go on a cruise to enjoy being at sea, not in a mall or on a skating rink. But, different strokes for different folks! That's why I'm glad there are so many different size and class of ships----something for everyone! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houlacruiser Posted May 10, 2009 #37 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Wow. That is pretty amazing. I love the pics! Sure must make everyone sailing on her even more excited. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alphakitty Posted May 10, 2009 #39 Share Posted May 10, 2009 I would never say I'm into mega ships or amusement parks at sea, but I want to sail on Oasis because it's there....sorta like climbing a mountain. LOL I also like smaller ships and the feeling of being "at sea". I don't think it's all or nothing. This time Oasis, next time...who knows? ;) I will spend some time on my balcony gazing to the sea and sky and I'm sure I'll feel like I'm on a ship. I see us cruising on Oasis most likely just once. But it is such an innovation that we feel we need to check it out. Also, considering my connection to the name, we just had to go. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abhb Posted May 11, 2009 #40 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I agree she looks amazing. Maybe next summer:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAZANDSTEVE Posted May 11, 2009 #41 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Looks like it will be amazing when finished, hope I get the chance to cruise on her.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaggyofwv Posted May 11, 2009 #42 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Ditto Come on guys, you have to admit that it is very impressive. I probably won't cruise on her because I wouldn't want to be on a ship that has so many people, but it is still a beautiful creation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carhirer Posted May 11, 2009 #43 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Such nasty comments, if you don't like it, stay away from these posts. Am I missing something? I would much prefer it for cheerleaders to be banned from these travel advisory forums:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BecciBoo Posted May 11, 2009 #44 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Good job Chris (Oasis Central:p) great photos, getting more and more excited now!! Openings in Aqua Pool...we'll find out when we jump in later!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken_nyc Posted May 11, 2009 #45 Share Posted May 11, 2009 This surely will be a very impressive ship!! :eek: As a previous poster said it is a destination unto itself. One would surely need well more than a week on her to get to see and do everything! Sounds like a B2B is in store for cruises who can afford to do so. Hope all of you enjoy your adventure sailing on her. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
