NOSaints1 Posted October 13, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I'm trying to convince my DW about which one to choose. I really want to go on both, on Anthem is there enough stuff to do like there is on Oasis? We've never been on Royal, we would be going in 2016 so that way we can save up for it. The airfare would be cheaper to NJ, cause we would be flying from Buffalo. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

CRUISEBOY305 Posted October 13, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Sounds to me like Anthem is a little closer to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted October 13, 2014 #3 Share Posted October 13, 2014 For me, the time of year would be a big determining factor. I could not see flying to NJ in the winter to take a cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRUISEBOY305 Posted October 13, 2014 #4 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Also is cost and itinerary a factor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOSaints1 Posted October 13, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted October 13, 2014 If we go on Anthem it would be March or April for Oasis. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums If you do Anthem, I would go with one of the 12 nighters. The 8 nighter does not look interesting to me at all.

Clarea Posted October 13, 2014 #9 Share Posted October 13, 2014 The 8 day goes to PC, Nassau and coco cay and Oasis goes to Nassau, St Thomas and St maarten I would much rather go to the Caribbean on Oasis, than that 8-day itinerary on Anthem.

NOSaints1 Posted October 13, 2014 Author #11 Share Posted October 13, 2014 On the 10 day all 4 islands were going to next month, would you go to same islands twice. I imagine with a 10 day the deposit goes up to 450 pp? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's correct, unless you have a Next Cruise certificate, can book onboard another cruise, or can take advantage of the hourly WOW sales they seem to have.

NOSaints1 Posted October 13, 2014 Author #13 Share Posted October 13, 2014 This would be our first cruise on Royal, what're the WOW sales? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted October 13, 2014 #14 Share Posted October 13, 2014 This would be our first cruise on Royal, what're the WOW sales? The WOW sale give on board credit and 50% reduced deposit. I don't believe there is one going on now, but they have been having them fairly often lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there'll be another wow sale real soon. :mad: Edited October 13, 2014 by CRUISEBOY305 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trev71 Posted October 14, 2014 #16 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I want to try the Anthem but there is no way I want to carry my winter coat with me to go on a cruise. Plus going to Coco bay and NAssua doesnt really interest me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare RCCL Fan Posted October 14, 2014 #17 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I highly recommend Oasis. A great baptism to Royal... it's her crown jewel, Its a tried and true amazing ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon in the ATL Posted October 14, 2014 #18 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I highly recommend Oasis. A great baptism to Royal... it's her crown jewel, Its a tried and true amazing ship! Agree with you 100%. I would wait until the Anthem moves from its Northeast homeport. With the Quantum heading to Asia, I have to guess that Anthem or Ovation will make it way to a Florida homeport. But hey I live in the South and we don't go north to take a cruise to the Caribbean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLACRUISER99 Posted October 14, 2014 #19 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I'll also vote for Oasis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKMurphy2 Posted October 14, 2014 #20 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I also vote Oasis. I would love to try the Anthem, but when I look at the prices, I about have a heart attack. I travel from Ohio and airfare to NYC right now is higher than Florida airfare. I would rather do 2 Voyager class cruises than 1 Anthem. Hopefully, the prices settle down a bit. I would like to try this ship, along with a night or 2 in NYC (my son lives in Brooklyn). But I sure could not afford to take him along with the cost.
