Review summary

I loved the ship. However, I was not able to see many of the shows onboard. Royal Caribbean has all guest reserve a seat to any show. All the theaters onboard are too small. They can't accommodate all the guest onboard. Royal Caribbean knows this is an issue but does not add additional shows. This practice angers many Royal Caribbean cruisers

Some do not show up (we have missed a few). They let those on "stand by" in about 10-15 min before a show, so if you do reserve, and do not show, then you loose your spot. My BF is not partial to the reservation and plans and likes going with the flow which does not fit this size ship.

We did our homework and booked all our showed but found that there were seats at all show's. I feel if you pay money for a vacation you should do homework to make it the best vacation you can. Most of the disappointing things we encounter were the people with no manners, and weathers.

If every passenger tried to reserve a show early there would still be passengers who could not reserve because lets face it the shows just cannot accommodate the number of passengers they have.

The next time you cruise on an Oasis or Quantum class ship, make your show and my time dinner reservations about 90 days out on the RC cruise planner. This includes all shows. You will happy and relaxed. Also, research and reserve your excursions early as well.

That's why we always make reservations before cruising.
