sashas_mom Posted November 20, 2009 #1 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Just watched the live broadcast on the largest ship in the world by Royal Carribbean from Cruise Critic (thank you, brilliant idea). Can I just say it doesn't even appeal to me in the least!! Who wants a big mall/city and times square with the news scrolling on large digital screens when you're on vacation a cruise ship?? And if you happend to be watching did you see the rows of lounge chairs? It looked like a lounge chair factory, not a beautiful, poolside deck, IMHO. Don't get me wrong, I love N.Y. and enjoy going to the mall, but I'll take the International Cafe on the Crown or Ruby any day.....so gorgeous! so relaxing! so much fun!!!!! Princess, if you read these boards....please keep up with what you're doing...I think you're the best!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kruznut Posted November 20, 2009 #2 Share Posted November 20, 2009 I'm with you ! definately too large for me. I know that some will love it and to each his/her own. But I really don't need central park on a cruise and I love NY too. We arrived in port everglades last Saturday morning on the Ruby and their she was that big ship. I took a few pictures and that was enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toto2Kansas Posted November 20, 2009 #4 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Oh My, I just tried to watch it and actually got seasick trying. I thought my video of my stateroom last month was rocky, but not as bad as this video was. Wish I could watch the entire thing, but then I would have to go find my Bonine first. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorontoTL Posted November 20, 2009 #5 Share Posted November 20, 2009 I am interested in seeing the ship and I'd love to have a look around. I doubt I'd like to do a cruise on board the Oasis, but it sure is interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyron Posted November 20, 2009 #6 Share Posted November 20, 2009 There's already a thread on the main RCI board for those who have no desire to cruise on the Oasis. Variety is the spice of life....I'm thankful to have options and choices. The RCI fleet is comprised of ships in all size ranges that appeal to the tastes of everyone. If the Oasis is not for you...fine but don't pollute an area that dedicated for those of us who are interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kooljamming Posted November 20, 2009 #7 Share Posted November 20, 2009 For the right price I am willing to try anything once. Oasis is the ultimate floating resort and amusemet park at sea.....why not:D For now I would love a day pass just to see what the future of cruising could be all about with giant TV screen instead of a live band. In time each of the mass market line will offer at least one of these for the adventerous but keep the other ships for those seeking the more 'classic' experience. Adding and giving choice is a way for companies to prosper and grow. Tyron: I agree, why pollute the vibe of people who are interested:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruising89143 Posted November 21, 2009 #18 Share Posted November 21, 2009 After seeing a Princess ship debark in St. Thomas a few years ago, I can understand why the "typical" Princess guest would not like Oasis. I think that HAL might be more in line for what that group would be looking for.;):eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way, I've been on Princess and wasn't all that impressed which is why I stick to the cruise boards that I have an interest in...:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about you? A relative of mine somehow managed to get her way on the Oasis for the cruise to nowhere.. and another is going on December 12th.. damn them..:rolleyes: Hopefully ill manage to get a few souvenirs out of them. I've seen lots of new pics of Oasis and i just realized the next 6 months of waiting are gonna be hard to get through. Take plenty of pictures when you get on her, buddy!
