Oasis of the Seas

7 Night Eastern Caribbean & Perfect Day (Miami Roundtrip)

Sail date: February 05, 2023

Ship: Oasis of the Seas

Review summary

First time on mega ship, and first time on Royal Caribbean. Not really inclined to go again. Better food on other lines. The soda package was a rip off because the machines added more carbonated water and less syrup then you get on land. (Just bring your own.) The one excursion we took was not fun since no time to really do anything. Don't know if that was the excursion, or the cruise line.

2 stars for the cruise excursion. 20 minutes at any given stop with the threat to leave you if you aren't back.
