Oasis of the Seas

My Alaskan ship was big, but this one ...

MS Oasis of the Seas is a cruise ship in the fleet of Royal Caribbean International. At approximately five times the size of the Titanic, the ship displaces the Freedom-class cruise ships (also owned by Royal Caribbean) as the world's largest passenger vessel, carrying 5,400 passengers. The ship was completed and delivered to Royal Caribbean on October 28, 2009. Two days later, it departed for its intended home port of Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Its maiden passenger-carrying voyage is expected to take place on December 1. The ship will operate year-round cruises to the Caribbean.

Oasis of the Seas will offer passengers features such as two-story loft suites, an amphitheater with poolside performances, zip-lining, a mini-golf course and a carousel.

The Royal Promenade will have many of the same features as the ones found on the Voyager and Freedom Class ships, but there are some new amenities. These include a skylight; that will let natural light flow inside from above, and the Rising Tide bar, which is a bar that will move between three decks of the ship. There will also be a shopping mall of sorts aboard, with some shops and cafes including: a champagne bar, Cafe Promenade, Sorrento's Pizzeria, a Close Shave men's groom and barber shop, clothing, jewellery, a general store, and a bar. The space will still be the length of a football field but the width will be 19 meters, more than two times the width of both the Freedom class Royal Promenade and Voyager class Royal Promenade.
