Enjoying your review.  That would be me waiting at Cafe Promenade before 6, saying, “What, no coffee!”  Hope you have a fun day today anyway 

 

I’m having fun, thank you so much. I was internally upset, since it’s a 24 hour cafe ..

Thanks for sharing your vacation & reporting on cruising with mobility issues!!  I am more unsteady on my feet than having mobility issues but am noting your first hand experience so I know what to expect.

 

I was wondering if the seating in the theater & chairs around the ship would be comfortable for plus sized people & am hopeful now that you said your balcony chair was comfortable.  I really don't like being squished in a chair lol. 

 

We sail on our first cruise in October on Oasis.  Enjoy your cruise & thanks again!

Welcome to CC.

 

Most chairs in most locations are comfortable, even for plus sized folks.

Thank you for your reply.

 

I've learned many things, I appreciate the people who take time to answer questions & do reviews & LIVE posts.

I am also unsteady on my feet, about 4 mo I fell outside and broke my wrist. I have fallen 3 other times since then.

Be careful going into the bathroom in your cabin, I tripped the first time (I did not fall). You have to step up which makes zero sense. So I have to look down when I get into bathroom. 
Also I found bathroom floor in the non handicapped room kind of slippery.

I was wearing vans and still found the floor of the buffet kind of slippery. I may eat breakfast at cafe park or the MDR from now on.

Ok I will tell you the chairs at cafe Promenade are a tight squeeze for me. The schooner bar chairs have more room but less back support.

If you are under 5”8 the couches by the golf course sit high, so my feet don’t touch the ground.

I am going to see a movie star at 1 and I will report how I fit in the seats in the Main showroom .

Thank you for reading my reports, I know mine is alcohol lite lol, but food porn is coming.

I am posting a review that I would have liked to seen before I cruised.

If I go on another cruise, it will with princess since you can get drink service brought to you anywhere in the common areas with their compass program.

Do you happen to know if the Escape Room is open this week?

Hi it’s not open this week at all. Thanks for reading.

Solarium bistro is not open at all this week. Johnny rockets not open for breakfast. Johnny rockets and port side bbq and playmakers hours are limited this week also.

[Maitaivegas]

Ok here is what everyone is waiting for:

Lime Margarita on the rocks 

 

My sad lunch before the movie

Keeping it positive- the service has been excellent, everyone greeting me and helping me out. Shout out to the Manager at Serranto’s he actually brought my pizza to me, and said he would serve me all week.

Im seeing the movie “Respect” at 1pm in the theatre- this has me the most excited. Where I live it’s really hard to get to see a movie. Will post a review and also talk about the seats and accessibility in the theatre. 💕💕

Wow!  Is ship empty this week?  Thinking next week will be a different story with Spring Break gearing up.

Next week Miami will have a huge cold front . I really don’t know if it’s empty, I will find out tomorrow. Tomorrow is our first sea day, woo woo.

but really I’m glad I didn’t go to Coco Cay the ship is empty right now.

Thanks for your report. I'll be on the Oasis in early April and haven't been on the ship since she was amped, so it's good to know of the improvements that were made. The cold front is not scheduled to arrive in the Miami area until Sunday, March 13th, which is the day you disembark - and by cold they mean lower 70s.  Enjoy your cruise and keep us updated!

Thanks for uploading the Entertainment schedule. Looks like they made a few changes.

 

BennyBrun had posted one from his sailing a few weeks back.

Since I am the planner for the family I now have to update my spreadsheet. Trying to coordinate nightly dinner , we have UDP and show's has been FUN, to say the least!

Any idea how full ship is? Are the chair hogs out in full force.. LOL!!

When we were waiting to board sitting in the terminal, they said they were expecting 4k on the ship but I'm not sure what the official passenger count is for this sailing.

I'm onboard as well and from what I've heard, about 4,000. We've done a few since restart and this is the first cruise post no mask requirement and it finally feels like cruising again. People having fun and interacting. It's been so nice not having to mask up on the ship if you choose not to.

Does it feel crowded?  Assuming it will be around this number (maybe a couple hundred more) next week.

[SteelyKat]

Thanks for the info about the bathroom being a step up.  I wondered about that when I was watching different videos of the trip & couldn't figure out if it was a step up or a high door threshold.

No it doesn't feel crowded at all. Casino bar has been pretty busy the entire time, likely because of people and free drinks being prime, but to me even at full capacity oasis class never felt crazy packed

[perfect match]

@Maitaivegas, hope you’re able to get around the ship ok and able to enjoy your cruise. I’m definitely enjoying your updates.

[dman1]

Do you know which nights are the "formal nights"?  Trying to plan evening entertainment around out MTD!

[travelhound]

Thank you for your review. We're on the 27th sailing and enjoy seeing a preview. I'm surprised how many venues are closed this week. Did they give any explanation for it? 

 

Enjoy your day at sea!

[Maitaivegas]

Good Morning all:

Man sorry this is the first time I posted since yesterday.

I was wore out! I feel asleep sitting up on my couch for like an hour. Then I slept for another 7 hours. I stepped 5600 steps yesterday.

So was just on deck 16 at the Lime and the Coconut and got my first drink of the day. Frozen Mudslide. It was good but the casino bar at Harris? Near the McDonald’s in Las Vegas was better.

[Maitaivegas]

So right now I’m on the port side on deck 15 sitting in one of the outside booths waiting for Portside BBQ to open at noon.

DD forgot about time difference and thought I was eating lunch early.
