Oasis of the Seas

The Story

When Oasis of the Seas launched in 2009, she redefined what a cruise ship could be. This groundbreaking vessel from Royal Caribbean International was the first of the revolutionary Oasis class, introducing innovations like distinct neighborhood concepts, an open-air Central Park with real trees, and the AquaTheater for spectacular diving shows. At 225,282 gross tons with capacity for 6,431 passengers, she remains one of the largest cruise ships ever built.

Oasis of the Seas primarily sails Caribbean itineraries, departing from Fort Lauderdale at Port Everglades, Florida, and Cape Liberty in Bayonne, New Jersey. The ship's seven distinct neighborhoods create multiple experiences within one vessel—from the Boardwalk's carousel and hot dog stand to the tranquil Solarium for adults only. You'll find the iconic zip line soaring nine decks above the Boardwalk, twin FlowRider surf simulators, rock climbing walls, an ice skating rink, and multiple pools and whirlpools. Entertainment options include full-scale Broadway productions, high-diving acrobatic shows, and live music venues throughout the ship.

This ship appeals to families seeking endless activities for all ages, groups wanting variety so everyone finds their favorite spots, and anyone curious to experience the ship that changed modern cruising. With over 20 dining venues ranging from casual to specialty restaurants, multiple bars and lounges, and enough activities to fill days at sea, Oasis of the Seas delivers the classic "floating resort" experience Royal Caribbean perfected.

With 102 upcoming sailings and prices starting at $438, there are plenty of opportunities to experience this iconic ship. Browse available itineraries to find the perfect Caribbean getaway aboard Oasis of the Seas.
