Have you been on the Oasis of the Seas? Or would you like to?

Have you been on the Oasis of the Seas? Or would you like to?

Additional Details

yes, I just sailed the first trip of the decade!






Answer :
We were on Independence for a Baltic cruise last August/September and were able to watch a video about Oasis.
She looks to be pretty staggering (as she should be being the largest cruise ship afloat).
I wouldn't mind having a couple of weeks aboard, although I keep losing my husband (he has no sense of direction!) on the medium to large ships, so I'd probably never see him again if I took him on Oasis.
Looks good fun for young people - so much to do.





Answer :
I want to go on it soooo bad. My brother and I were just talking about it to my mom today at lunch. Maybe we'll convince my parents. We have been on 4 cruises and 3 of them w/ RCI. I know I will go on it some day





Answer :
no i haven't but would love too specially if its free

Carnival vs Royal Caribbean?

I read the following a little while back:

"Gerry Cahill made the comments while promoting his company's new vessel Carnival Dream to the Florida newspaper the St Petersburg Times.

He told the news provider: "Anybody can spend an unlimited amount of money to come up with all sorts of innovations.

However, he said that these can lead to higher costs which will be passed on to passengers.

Oasis of the Seas has gained attention for many of its innovative features, including touch-screen information boards and special on-board mobile phones which allow passengers to stay in touch with each other at all times.

Carnival instead choose to focus on passengers' experiences, he said, promoting the unique main show on board Carnival Dream, Dancin' in the Streets, which avoids aping Broadway or Vegas in favour of high-energy entertainment."

What do you think of him saying this? Do you think he has the right to say this? (Since his Dream isn't nearly as innovative as the Oasis)






Answer :
He does have a point. All the uniqueness about what is on Oasis of the Sea like the ice skating rink, all these high tech amenities, the cost of which is directly passed on to the consumer.

On the other hand his comments on the main show are funny since not many people on a ship ever go to the show.

And to your question on whether he has a right to say what he did. I would remind you this is America and we can say just about anything we want to say as long as its based on facts. Since there's nothing to suggest that what he said about Oasis of the Sea is false

I need some help with getting into shape?

Recently, i booked a vacation that i have been wanting to go on for a really long time now. I'm going on the Oasis of the Seas on June 19 and since i've been dieing to go on this for so long, i want to get into shape so i can actually enjoy the full cruise vacation without being self conscience

i weigh 165 right now which is overweight(15 year old boy)
most of my friends weigh around 120 so i want to be in that general range
i calcuated it out and i need to lose 10 pounds a months
that may not seem like much but it is to me as i dont really have much effort

is there anything i can do to make sure i finally lose those pounds?
i have a gym membership so i have access to stuff like that
thanks





Answer :
20 minute walk ( NOT RUN ) everyday. walking or tread mill speed less then 3.0 possibly with incline will burn fat do not run. running will do cardio. you want weight loss.

Drink water at least 8 cups a day. no more pop. diet soda is worst than regualr soda, aspertane is really really not good for you


your job is fill your stomach with low calororie high volume food.

if the food is close to natual state, it's less calorie per same size, ( corn < style="font-weight: bold;">Answer :
The formula for losing those unwanted pounds is simple - eat less and exercise more often - the difficulties arise when we in reality try to put that into practice! There are loads of stumbling blocks in the big wide world aren't there?! I discovered some excellent advice by checking out the web portal in the box below, they have loads of instruction, I shed 7 pounds by using their methods.

What is the minimum age to go on the zip line on the oasis of the seas?

i'm 12 years old and I was wondering if I could go on the zip line when i'll go on the oasis of the seas. Is there a minimum age or does it go by height or weight?





Answer :
Royal Caribbean International requires waivers for the FlowRider®, ice skating, inline skating, the bungee trampoline, the Rock Climbing Wall, and the Zip Line. However its web site does not have a statement of the minimum age requirement for the zip line. You'll probably have to call RC if you want to know in advance of your cruises. You will have to complete a waiver form. You will be able to complete all Onboard Activities Waivers once onboard. If you're sailing on Oasis of the Seas and Allure of the Seas, you may sign waivers online, up to 3 days prior to your sail date. For each person you are signing a waiver for (yourself and/or a minor), you must have the guest's last name, date of birth, reservation number, and the name of the ship and sail date.

All activities may have age, height, and/or weight restrictions. Guests participating in the FlowRider®, for example, must be at least 52"/132 cm tall to use the bodyboard and 58"/147 cm tall to use the flowboard. Rock climbers must be at least 6 years old, and climbers under the age of 13 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Please see each individual activity's waiver for restrictions and requirements.
