Find An Air Water Show Cruise!
Alfonzo Liebenstein
Just off the Quantum and heard from many cruisers about the Oasis. We have not been on this class ship yet but everyone we spoke to thought highly of the Oasis. We were told there are cabins (deck 8 ?) that you can actually see the water show from your balcony. Can anyone help me figure out what cabins they may be? Thanks in advance.
The Aqua Theater Suites on decks 8-11, and the Grand Suites at the stern on 12 and 14. The Boardwalk Balconies toward the aft end also have a view. But to be honest, except for the large balconies on the Aqua Theater Suites and the GS's, you really want to go to the shows.
Having said that, I think an Aqua Theater Suite would be great! Love the large balcony and the view from the stern. As for the Boardwalk Balconies, not sure how well you can see from the aft few. We were farther forward and had a limited view.
We loved 10329. We did go to the theater to watch some shows but we really enjoyed catching extra shows from our balcony. My then 8 y/o son particularly loved sitting on the balcony watching diving shows or parts of the movie that was playing while I was getting dressed for dinner or catching the light show before we turned in for the night. It was the perfect room for us.
Actually, our cabin 11729 on deck 11 had excellent views as all the 3 or 4 end Boardwalk cabins do....but more importantly on decks 10, 11, 12 and 14 there are public balconies where you can get up close and personal with the show especially with the high divers.
We were fortunate enough to have an Aqua Theater Suite on the Oasis a couple weeks ago, and we watched the Aqua show both from the theater and our balcony. We also really enjoyed being able to see the fountain show from our balcony in the evenings, watch the divers practice, see the Belly Flop Competition, etc., all without leaving our cabin.
The water pool that is the main stage for this show had false bottoms that could make it anywhere from dry space that is not a pool at all to deep enough for high divers, and other levels in between from ankle deep to about the depth of half a person. Not all spaces in the pool were always at the same level either, sometimes there was a walkway through the center while people dove into the ends.
Costumes for this show were reminiscent of old Samurai warriors, or at least enough of a resemblance of such to give people the idea that is what they were. It was quite a varied show with lots of dancing, diving, and drumming. It also had aerialists and tightrope walkers. It was also quite loud. You could hear it about halfway through the ship, and other nights we heard it from our room, which had just one cabin between ours and the big fancy suite at the back with a wraparound balcony going both from the inside with a view of that show to the outside along the water. Ours was just a regular waterside balcony cabin. The boardwalk view balcony cabins at that distance probably could have at least somewhat seen the show from their balcony as well as hearing it from their room.
A narrow strip alongside the pool came equipped with fountains that sprayed up on both sides of a line of dancers on that bit during part of the show. It was definitely worth seeing, far more than an average cruise ship production. Throughout the show the water level in the pool changed often. People would dance in ankle deep water, then as soon as they cleared the way divers might drop down from above, or perhaps dancing legs would appear sticking up from the water with the upper half of the person hidden underneath. It changed often between divers or drummers way up high to dancers or other water level acts below as well as the part with tightropes and aerialists.
Lighting effects made the ice show called 1977 far more spectacular than the skating alone, and it was pretty amazing what the skaters could do in such a tiny ice arena compared to the size of skating rinks on land. It started out as London in 1977, with the lighting giving the ice the appearance of the river Thames. The show starts with quite a lot of lighted drones flying around with different colored lights. It just looks like lights until some of them turn off, at which time you can see the drones.
In between both real events like world wars, breaking the sound barriers, Amelia Airhart, and space flights had their time along with the radio broadcast of the imaginary War of the Worlds which came complete with dancing Martians. Though there was no actual invasion, the radio program and panic it caused are a real part of history.
