[Dillon1108]

driving that thing must be a pain!

[Timberwolf8998]

Anyone know exactly how long the oasis is?

[CruiseGuy1]

@Timberwolf8998 Both Oasis and Allure of the Seas are 1187 feet long

[Timberwolf8998]

@CruiseGuy1 Wow thats pretty big, Thanks!

[recoilhurts]

i miss this ship so much, had the time of my life on it

[snelmau5]

That's Sweden isn't it?

[klgbjd]

I wish that i could know this captain by MSN so i could chat with him about ships maybe he will invite me to the Oasis of the Seas ,u would never know ... hmm what is his name ? Is he capt Bill wright or William Wright ? got confused ?/???

[ionRxZ]

watch out for icebergs homie

[Ball87Fire]

this ship actually 4 to 5 times bigger than titanic.. and they planing to built 1 more witch is bigger than the oasis.. scary.. O-O

[CruiseGuy1]

@Ball87Fire Allure of the Seas will be exactly the same size as Oasis of the Seas when she debuts 12/1/10. Ships are AWESOME!

[TITANICLUSITANIA]

@CruiseGuy1 Actually no, Allure of the seas might me slightly larger than oasis, like it happened with Titanic and Olympic, that Titanic was slightly larger, this might happen again, because Allure is already 15MM longer than oasis, so you never know Allure might be slightly larger, but not drastically larger.

[CruiseGuy1]

@TITANICLUSITANIA Thanks for your comment. Allure is stated to possibly be almost 5mm longer, but has nothing to do with gross tonnage which is interior volume not weight. Oasis and Allure of the Seas exceed 105,000 tons displaced, which is weight. This is more than the largest Nimitz Class aircraft carriers which are 98500, full.

Titanic was 5000 GRT more than Olympic because they enclosed the promenade deck, otherwise, ships were identical.

[CanadaLongboard]

@CruiseGuy1 its not the same size, the allure is 5 cm bigger

[MrWill1985]

@CruiseGuy1 Are the Allure of the Seas and Oasis of the Seas exactly alike on the inside? I know they look the same on the outside.

[cruiseshipmad]

@MrWill1985 the first look, yes but the theatre looks different, the carousel looks different, it has got some sort of pattern above the aqua theatre, where the climbing walls are, and allure has got different horns, they are orange inside

[MrWill1985]

@cruiseshipmad I did suspect some things inside would be different. I know Carnival the Spirit class may have the same arrangements but colors are different inside and some of the names are different. I do know the Allure of the seas is the first ship to feature a Starbucks on board.

[cruiseshipmad]

@CruiseGuy1 Allure is bigger ever so slightly though

[JDemon553]

@cruiseshipmad 5 mm is just enough for Hernan Zini :)

[trainlover658]

i'd love to come and work on this ship

[Legoland2010]

i been in this ship i love this ship very big room and very huge inside... pay this hoilday for 1 week for 50.000 a person

[xStarSkiix]

@Legoland2010 hope that aint dollars euro or sterling

[Sooksawaspakdee961]

Really, do we need this huge cruise ships, what will come after this. A 300.000 tons, 400 mtr monster that dont fit in any docks. It´s really getting stupid. Well i guess all this fat ass Americans need more space even on the sea.

[rchelifreak]

@Sooksawaspakdee961

It's called capitalism. People will pay good money to go on a cruise, and it becomes more economical to cram more people on one ship. That's how the world works, so you might as well get used to it.

[Jarrodabitx]

@Sooksawaspakdee961 Hmmm jealous much?!?!?

[jaylang121]

fail

[cortes1988]

I wonder who is going to be the captain for the allure of the seas.

[brothers0fwar]

make this a mega yacht

[beaum1cah]

the captian has gotten to be captian of tthe 2 biggest cruiseships in the world pretty impressive he cud put that on a jo application

[CruiseGuy1]

Titanic was 46000 gross tons and Oasis of the Seas is 225,000. Hope that clears up the misunderstanding.

[Mubble]

Wrong.

[yomamasapeach]

captains log stardate 50:20:39. Spock has brought the oasis to miami. It will take some time for scotty to get use to the new ship. Captain kirk , out

[RCCLDisney]

Thats pretty dam funny!

[ZeroGal5]

oh my god, that was the best comment i've ever read!

[130monkeyman]

When they tested a scale model of oasis they did a simulation of it being hit by another ship in the middle of oasis. it took a little over 24 hours for the model to sink!

[TheDaveTiptonShow]

it is 5 times bigger than the titanic.

[xXRyuzamexUxhizamexX]

the fucking boat has helicopter pads!!!!! god damn!!!!

[SpeedFreakNO]

The Norwegian coast liners have that as well :) A really big boat is not needed for that.

[jumjalalabash]

considering it just sailed through a hurricane it may be pretty damn unsinkable

[892lgy7382]

no ship is unsinkable (remember they said the same thing about titanic?) but still i have only one word to describe that

Wow.

[Nocalas]

stardate

[all1357]

it would really suck if that thing sinks on it's way to port.

[Thegamer5150]

I'm gonna sneak on lol

[JPArmone]

Man, you have the greatest job in the world. That's just awesome. Good luck on your voyage.

[engel0112000]

is it unsinkable?

[hiblangbuhok]

SO big
