Review summary

Loved the Oasis of the Seas, was a much bigger ship than expected. The stage was great but be sure and buy the drink package before you leave when its 50% off otherwise its higher. If your traveling light and only taking one suitcase per person you can just roll your luggage on board yourself and avoid having to wait for the staff to bring it to your room plus you avoid the risk of loosing your luggage and yes it does happen. Be sure and reserve the shows you want to go see early as they sell out fast. Make your dining room reservations before you leave so that you have a specific table and time everyday to avoid the hassle of anytime dining and waiting in lines. Done overpack your suitcases as you really dont need as many clothes as you think. The pictures on board are plenty but a 8x10 will coast you $20.00 per picture. The gift shops have 50% off sale at the end of the cruise so dont buy at the beginning as you will save by waiting for the sales. There are 6000k people on the ship with you so be patient and realize that things are not going to be perfect. We hear people saying things like i cant believe the mustard dispenser ran out of mustard......really people get over it as some will find SOMETHING to complain about no matter how small and this person said that ruined their vacation..... again world peace is a life tragedy running out of mustard which only needed to be filled as you and thousand others are all using it is not life altering or worth the drama...... if you dont believe then read some of the other reviews and you see all the drama queens in full action...... overall the vacation was wonderful and cant wait to do another one in a few months...... Enjoy each day as its your last and you will see you dont need to sweat the small stuff and not to pet the sweaty stuff in life as its all small stuff.....Enjoy your cruise and be a blessing to all you meet and your life will be one of joy peace and happiness!!!!

Zipline

Zip line was fun and the staff was pretty friendly except for the one dark haired guy who was working on the receiving end of the zip line who was rude to a lot of people guess he was having a bad day but otherwise would a great and very fun experience.

Ship tip

Get the Drink package, Beers are $9.00, Cocktails are $13.00 or higher, after 3-4 beers or cocktails its already paid for itself but buy it before you sail you only get 20% off one the first day then its full price.

unless it's really something that needs to be addressed. He was a joy to be around. Enjoy each day as if it's your last......

You're so right in advising to enjoy each day as if it's your last. We went on a Canada/New England cruise on Grandeur in Sept of 2017. We enjoyed that cruise more than any we had been on because of the excursions we chose to take. We got back on the 16th & my husband died unexpectedly of a massive heart attack on the 30th. My husband always went out of his way to get to know the crew on the ship & joke with them & make them laugh. He was always the life of the party & made sure everyone was having a good time. Things are not always perfect on a cruise but you go with the flow & don't complain un
