JAMESCC Posted February 18, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Wow I just saw RCI ordered a 6th Oasis class ship. I have no idea where these giant are going to all be ported or where they will sail but I'm excited. Here to hoping it will be here in NJ. I will leave a link but they don't allow links here right? Well here goes a try, either way just Google it, comes up quickly. https://www.cruiseindustrynews.com/cruise-news/20393-royal-caribbean-orders-sixth-oasis-class-vessel.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armac Posted February 18, 2019 #3 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Wow. I remember when Oasis came out. I said this is great, prices will drop after a few months because they will never be able to fill that big a ship every week.

A little off topic here but on the INDY earlier this month - we were told by the NextCruise Manager that the Oasis is coming to Bayonne in 2020 or 2021 (i can't remember which year). He made mention of it saying they were bringing Central Park to Central Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timf2001 Posted February 18, 2019 #10 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Given the rumored size increase of the Icon class I figured 5 would be the end of the line for Oasis class. Glad we'll be seeing more, since I really enjoy the design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 18, 2019 #11 Share Posted February 18, 2019 (edited) I hope they decide to home one in Southampton. The UK market has little competition at the moment. A majority of Brits cruise with P&O, and most of their ships are based in Southampton in the summer months, with a handful going elsewhere in the winter for the sun. They have just released their biggest ship, "Iona", which apparently is selling very well. Independence has always fared well. I wonder if they are using the Anthem to understand the interest in super ships from the UK. They would have to run her on a 12 night/2 week cruise to get over to the ports that could hold her in Western Europe! I would love it. As convenient and well priced P&O are, it is just a bit too British for me. I go on holiday to escape the UK!

Shows you how much I know I remember reading the other boards saying how this will ruin cruising. There was one poster (among many) who predicted Royal's upcoming bankruptcy. He stated over and over that Carnival doesn't have to build big ships, they just have to wait and pick up the Oasis after Royal folds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMESCC Posted February 18, 2019 Author #25 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Wow a lot of great responses. Whoever said Oasis would cause RCI to go under I have to laugh and laugh hard. Anyway we have Oasis coming to NJ so I'm happy with that. It'll be interesting see where this new Oasis ship lands though. I personally hope its not China. I mean nothing against China but I hope its the US or Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
