As of now, I don't see any cheap prices on The Oasis of the Seas. The first year everyone wants to go on the "new" ship until another new one comes along. Personally 5,000 does seem like a lot, but most of the feedback I have seen has been positive. Maybe the people that don't like the crowds just don't go on the big ships. Price is an issue, now with the economy the way it is. Cruising is the best value around. You would think the supply of rooms is overflowing. However, cruise lines do retire or sell off their older ships, we just don't hear about it as much. RE: one of the older Princess ships being moved to P%26amp;O (another Carnival company) in Europe. All in all cruising is a great experience, and if you can get a good deal, it is the "icing on the cake."
I think we have hit a max size of ship for at least the next 10 yrs due to the economy. However, will RCCL be slashing prices to fill the ship, hardly. Across the 3 largest cruise lines, Royal Caribbean, Carnival and Norwegian, the cruises on average are sold out 6-8 weeks in advance. This shows that there is still very high demand for cruises in general. The only way Royal Caribbean would slash prices is if there are significant problems with Royal Caribbean and that a large percentage of their core market, the people who have cruised with RCCL in the past, are now cruising on a different line.Do you think RCCL's Oasis/Allure of the Sea is just too big of a ship? Will a ship that size help/hurt them?
