Oasis of the Seas Cruises

| Last updated: January 11, 2026

Ship Overview

Oasis of the Seas launched in 2009 as the revolutionary ship that changed cruising forever. As the first Oasis-class vessel, she introduced the neighborhood concept that has since defined Royal Caribbean's mega-ship design. Now enhanced through multiple refurbishments, Oasis delivers proven excellence at accessible price points.

The ship pioneered features now standard across the fleet: Central Park with real trees growing at sea, Boardwalk with its AquaTheater, Rising Tide Bar that moves between decks, and the Royal Promenade spanning the ship's interior. What was revolutionary in 2009 remains impressive today.

After a major 2019 amplification, Oasis added the Perfect Storm water slides, new dining venues, and updated entertainment spaces. Sailing from Port Canaveral to the Caribbean, Oasis offers exceptional value - the Oasis-class experience at the most competitive pricing in the fleet.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Oasis of the Seas outdated?

Not at all. The 2019 amplification added Perfect Storm slides, new dining venues, and updated spaces. While she lacks Icon's newest features, Oasis delivers the core Oasis-class experience at the best value pricing.

What is the Rising Tide Bar?

Rising Tide Bar is a unique bar that moves between the Royal Promenade and Central Park, offering drinks during a gentle three-deck journey. It's an Oasis-class original.

Mark and Lisa C. - New Jersey ★★★★★
The original still impresses

Our first Oasis-class experience was on the original. Central Park at sunset was magical. Rising Tide Bar was unique. The amplification updates kept everything fresh. Best value in the fleet for the Oasis experience.
