  • Our first time at the Oasis of the Seas. This was a 7-night cruise and we only paid $432 per person, so we took everyone.
    Like we do most of the times we go on vacation, we drove. Road Trip!
    We sailed out on Cape Liberty Beyonne, NJ

    Let me comment again and say the price you paid is a steal!! We just came back a week ago and are going through cruises blues. We paid a little more than double but we all had the best time on our very first cruise!! Thanks for sharing your experience on the Oasis. Love how your family gets along and actually participates in the vlog. My family goes silent and goes awal when I'm about to vlog.

    My husband and I watched your video this morning over Saturday breakfast. We are cruising on Oasis at the end of July. I just want to say how much we enjoyed your personality. I told Robert I hope we cross paths with you and your family one day. Thank you for an entertaining and just overall great video.

      @@unclecarney1526 Hello! :) Overall, we had a great cruise. This was the largest ship we've ever sailed on, and were just wowed at all she has to offer. I don't know what your personality is, but if you don't mind crowds, you probably won't be too overwhelmed if the ship is completely booked out. On our cruise, there were 6500 guests onboard. As introverts, we were a bit overwhelmed the first few days. lol So, I do have a few suggestions that might help you: 1) If you go to the Windjammer on Embarkation Day, head all the way to the back to find a table. A crewmember gave us that tip, and it worked out well for us. There were plenty of available seats with great views. We made it to the Windjammer about 3:00 p.m. 2) If everyone in your party is 12 years old and up, you can have breakfast in the Solarium Bistro. They are open on port days until 1:00 p.m. On sea days, it closes at 10:30 a.m. There was never a huge line like at the Windjammer and Main Dining Room. Of course there are other venues for breakfast, but we preferred the Solarium Bistro above all of the others. 3) We had no issues making reservations for the shows. However, we found where those without reservations could be allowed in to see the shows provided there were open seats. They opened it up to non-reservations about 10 minutes or so before the show began. We actually saw Frozen in Time twice, with the second time scooting into Studio B at the last minute as non-reservations. 4)The absolute best place to eat onboard is Portside BBQ. We have seen others rave about El Loco Fresh. It is really good. But we think Blue Iguana on Carnival is better because the food is mostly made fresh. At El Loco Fresh, it isn't. However, it is absolutely worth eating at El Loco Fresh. But don't miss Portside BBQ! :) :) Those are things off the top of my head. lol I am currently editing our first video for our cruise, an overview of every day onboard. If I can get it done and uploaded on our channel before your cruise, I'll pop back over here and let you know in case you want to check it out. If you're wondering about anything else, just let me know. Hopefully, I'll have an answer for you! (Melinda)

      Once I entered the terminal it to about 10 minutes. The are very good at moving the crowd through.
      I did have negative test printed and had filled out and provided our photos in the app.
      The kids under 12 line was not to bad either. They asked if they were vaccinated and pulled us right out when we showed proof. We were ther only 5 min.

      For us in the US, as far as I know you do not need to submit the test. You bring it with you to the port as proof. Don't forget bringing the vaccine card hard copy too. Happy sailing.

    Thanks!! We live in Ontario, Canada, we are driving to the port the day before the cruise, so we are looking for a hotel to stay at. Looking forward to watching your vlogs.

      We stayed at Woodbridgespring Suites in Elizabeth. It is 26 min from the port. Nothing special about it but it is nice, clean, and at a good rate for the area.

      @bestatsea1415  2 года назад

      With luck. I was looking and looking for the right price an a ship, not a specific ship. This was a group rate I found through a large online agency. They get ridiculously low prices from time to time for a small number of cabins. You just have to go over the entire internet to find them your self constantly. An agent can't help with this. I've tried.
