Embarkation

Hassled me a little bit at security about my Insulin pump, even with my doctor's note. Im used to it from TSA. Other than that, without a hitch!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Food was excellent. This was our 2nd time on an Oasis Class Ship, but first on the Oasis herself. Discovered that the Central Park Cafe has a fresh cut Prime Rib sandwich on a Kimmelweck roll. This sandwich hails from my hometown, although, here at home its made with Roast beef instead. The "Weck" roll as we call it in these parts, Is a hard or soft roll, with Caraway Seeds, and Pretzel salt ontop. GOTTA TRY IT, YOU WILL LOVE IT
