Review summary

This was my wife and I first cruise and we wanted to leave nothing to chance. It took more than 5 months to plan to insure everything went well. We were celebrating our 25 wedding anniversary and we wanted share a wonderful experience together away from distractions. The cruise, excursions and overall experience was wonderful. The title of this review "From Disaster to Glory!" is important to highlight because of the threat of derailment. This began when the airline (US Airways) mislabeled our luggage and we arrived in Fort Lauderdale with only our carry on bags. Thankfully the cruise line went above and beyond to help in any way possible. The stress this added to our first days on board quickly faded by the warm reception and positive staff onboard Oasis of the Seas. We were so taken by the wonderful atmosphere, we already booked another cruise.

The stateroom was perfect in every detail. And once again the staff went above and beyond the call of duty.

Ship tip

Be sure to set dinner times for early evenings as to not interfere with evening shows and events.

Our bags have yet to be located.We are still working with the airlines in hopes of locating our missing luggage. Will update this post once the dust has settled. And also thanks for the well wishes.
