About the Oasis...where do I start?

Embarkation- pretty easy, Royal Caribbean shows no love to their Gold members, only Platinum, Diamond and Diamond Plus...but more about that later! We were told that we were to go to the right and wait to embark, but another gentleman told us to go the other way because we were "Only Gold" members.

Dining- I had a great Assistant Waiter and Head Waiter, my main waiter left a lot to be desired. She really had no personality (luckily Razvan made up for it). The food was not great. I have had ALOT better on the Freedom Class and on the Voyager Class ships in the Royal Caribbean fleet. It seemed to me like they were trying to be too fancy with their food, leaving those of us without a well-developed palate (lol) to order off of the "Alternative Menu" five out of seven nights. Lunch--where to get it? Well, you could try the overcrowded, undersized Windjammer (which we did on 2 days). But, it is best to try the alternative places...Park Cafe, had really good Cuban sandwiches (they were my favorite). Breakfast is also a hassle at Windjammer, so we did Johnny's most days (they made really good eggs).
