Thanks for sharing your cruise experience. Sorry it didn’t meet all your expectations. Wonder if the Seas is an Oasis class ship so I’m confused about your comment that the Oasis class is a bit smaller.

I believe Wonder is considered an oasis class ship. Maybe Wonder is alittle big bigger. I think the ships are just sailing at full capacity these days
