Royal Caribbean Debuted The Largest Ship In December

The Oasis of the Seas has 16 decks and holds 6296 guests. The ship is nearly five times the gross tonnage of the Titanic and one and a half times longer than the U.S. Capitol building. Let's put it into perspective. The U.S. Capitol building is over 751 feet in length making the Oasis of the Seas approximately 1184 feet long. A long walk by anyones standards on a ship.

The ship features seven distinct neighborhoods and four pools. It has a rock wall, sports deck, a beautiful boardwalk, the Aqua Theater on the back, and take a stroll through Central Park, but that is only a fraction of its compliment of entertainment and amenities.

Its home port is Fort Lauderdale departing from Port Everglades. The ship offers weeklong sailings in the eastern and western Caribbean. You can check the search results for dates and prices for the coming months and choose your next cruise on the largest ship afloat.
