CRUISEFAN0001 Posted October 27, 2014 #128 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Love the photos. I suspect it'll get really interesting when we learn about the top deck, front, and dining room changes compared to Oasis & Allure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ocav Posted November 11, 2014 #130 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Surely Oasis III will be called Passion OTS? Passion and Allure are very similar words, much like how Freedom, Independence, and Liberty are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Passion and Allure are very similar words, much like how Freedom, Independence, and Liberty are. I suspect they will use Passion and Harmony along the same thinking.

Same question about Oasis IV Sent from my iPhone using Forums While currently booked as Allure in Europe for 2016, it could be assumed that the Barcelona home ported ship will be Oasis 3. Allure/Oasis 3 Barcelona based prior to TA October 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Allure / Oasis 3 is booked from Barcelona from Sunday 1 May, 2016 for 7 day cruises calling at Sunday Barcelona Monday Palma de Mallorca Tuesday Marseille Wednesday Livorno Thursday Civitavecchia (Rome) Friday Naples Saturday at sea Sunday Barcelona La Spezia is replaced by Livorno for 2016 season for Allure / Oasis 3 A Transatlantic would leave Barcelona on Sunday the 23rd October 2016 23 Oct Barcelona 24 Oct Palma de Mallorca 25 Oct Cartagena, Spain 26 Oct Gibraltar 27 - ? TBA May be a 14 night to FLL to put it on Allure rotation or other TBA. The Allure sailings still on books for May 2016 would indicate this is most likely the inaugural season for Oasis 3 if confirmed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Allure sailings still on books for May 2016 would indicate this is most likely the inaugural season for Oasis 3 if confirmed. I was just looking at another thread where a few people were reporting that Oasis 1 will be moving to China in May 2016. If that is true, I think Oasis 3 will come to FLL because I believe that Royal has an agreement to keep two Oasis Class ships in FLL. But looking at your schedule, maybe Allure is a placeholder for Oasis 1 who could be doing Med itins before repositioning to China??? But why would Royal have one Oasis Class ship doing a Westbound TA while another is doing a Eastbound at the same time?? MAybe the rumors about Oasis 1 Are false… Edited November 16, 2014 by OfTheSeasCruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADflyer Posted November 16, 2014 #135 Share Posted November 16, 2014 The one thing that is for sure is that the port of Barcelona along with the calls at Malaga and Vigo were very successful with Oasis and proved that home porting an Oasis class ship in Barcelona is a good thing and it is very likely these MED port bookings will be confirmed with one of the three Oasis ships in 2016. The ship booked definitely does a traditional westbound TA leaving BCN on the 30th of October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bilyclub Posted November 17, 2014 #137 Share Posted November 17, 2014 The one thing Quantam has shown us, even if RC did have a plan for now it could change. If either 3 or 4 does go to the Caribbean, I hope to see some new ports available. When I was on Allure they said that Allure had made a stop at St Kitts and Costa Maya once. Both Allure and Oasis were making regular stops at Costa Maya due to Falmouth not being completed on time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MADflyer Posted November 17, 2014 #139 Share Posted November 17, 2014 It is interesting how information can flow so differently. I was also on the Oasis TA and my Chinese Assistant Waiter had not even been asked about a transfer to Quantum, nor did he have any information about Oasis going to China. The crew that I had contact with were just happy that the ship was going back to 'warmer' climates, where they belonged. I met officers that were so happy that their transfer to Quantum was recalled and they were able to stay on Oasis and they had no interest in working on a ship that was going to be based in China. They did mention that they expect the number of Chinese guests on Oasis to increase, but did not relate that to a future deployment of the ship itself.

But some of these crew won't even be with the Oasis in 2 years time, but I doubt they would inform staff officially until it was made official publicly in order to prevent things like this happening. It's possible that it's also just rumours onboard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
