      I have been on every Oasis class ship. A couple of them twice. What I like is the entertainment such as the ice skating, aqua theater show and the broadway shows. I also like all there is to do in the evening with the different venues with music ranging from Latin to rock. I never feel the ship is crowded as RC does a good job of spreading the crowds.
