Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm going to be able to see already walking through the Royal prominade you know you can tell the differences and going to point them out you know here on the channel I mean not in a bad way but just there are definitely differences and the ships kind of have improved as Oasis class

I've got to say that's probably my favorite production number of any of the cruises I've been on this year

seriously do not miss the aqua Show if you sail aboard a Royal Caribbean Oasis class ship

the food fantastic isumi was just wonderful and chopped grill you know a classic as always

From celebrating birthdays at Izumi to catching the final performance of a world-class Aqua Show crew, we’re sharing the highlights (and the rainy moments) of this 3-night getaway [04:04], [05:32], [27:32].
