JEN5508 Posted June 4, 2019 #1 Share Posted June 4, 2019 We went on the Oasis 3 years ago and looking to go June 2020 for my son's High School Graduation... Jennifer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattb31 Posted June 4, 2019 #2 Share Posted June 4, 2019 I loved the technology on the Quantum Class (Anthem). It was super modern and we had a ton of fun. There were 2 indoor pools so it wasn't a huge deal that it left from a cooler weather climate (we went in November). I've now been on Allure and Symphony and I feel like Oasis class just can't be matched anywhere else. I don't think I'd ever get tired of cruising on them. So if you liked it the first time, I'd highly recommend going again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEN5508 Posted June 4, 2019 Author #3 Share Posted June 4, 2019 We loved the Oasis.. just thought of doing a different one.. maybe 1 with waterslides this time... My daughter will be 15 at the time so she loves the pools and slides still.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oasis will have slides by then, though prices out of lovely Bayonne may be higher than from Florida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jennifer You didn't say whether you enjoyed your experience on Oasis, so if you did, then I'd suggest one fo the newer Oasis class ships, such as Symphony or Harmony.

That is the real question. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kag19 Posted June 4, 2019 #11 Share Posted June 4, 2019 We love Oasis! And since it is for your son (I assume you are taking him ) then there would be tons of things on the ship to do for a teenager with all the new additions after her dry dock. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By June of next year, Oasis will basically be the same as Harmony/Symphony, no? In terms of the actual ship itself, that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuCruise Posted June 4, 2019 #13 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Symphony also has Laser Tag which is fun. (And I think Oasis is getting it as well if I'm remembering correctly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of the actual ship itself, that is. Most likely, though Royal does tend to make things a bit different at times. For example, I'd be surprised if they retrofitted a pool into the Solarium on Oasis, but it could happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouhunter Posted June 4, 2019 #15 Share Posted June 4, 2019 (edited) Some people love the big ships, some the mid-size, some the smaller ones. Your question can generate so many different answers and opinions....... Obviously there are lots of Oasis class lovers. If you liked it, may as well stick with them. But since you ask, we prefer Freedom, Explorer, and Radiance class ships. But, we don't cruise for the slides, bells and whistles that are available on Oasis class. Nor are we interested in paying the premium for them. And the smaller ships offer more varied (and better in our opinion) port choices in general.

For the OP with a teenager would definitely recommend an Oasis class or Freedom class AMPED ship because it would be great fun for them. Oasis specifically currently is still quite reasonable depending on sailing dates vs Harmony/Symphony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredflint Posted June 5, 2019 #17 Share Posted June 5, 2019 I would look at letting him take a friend along. While we all love our kids they may not love spending 7 days hanging out with you! I would go for a ship that allows for the most fun for a teen but don't forget the ports and what he might be able to do while in port. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovescats5 Posted June 5, 2019 #18 Share Posted June 5, 2019 We sailed Oasis twice and then Anthem and I would pick Anthem in a second. We really the Quantum class and think there is much more to do on them than the Oasis class, Just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
