What creators said
- Called it similar
Utopia is part of the Oasis class and is a little bigger than Wonder, but not the biggest.
- Called it similar
Both ships offer unique big ship short itinerary options from different departure ports.
- Favors Wonder of the Seas
Wonder of the Seas is an old stinker compared to Utopia's newer offerings.
- Called it similar
It has a louder, more social, and party-centric energy compared to Wonder's family-focused atmosphere.
