Every night, it’s “Lights, camera, action” for Royal Caribbean International’s 1,600 cast members, 600 musicians and 800 technicians. The world’s largest producer of live entertainment puts on full-scale, original productions across four “stages” – air, ice, water and theater – around the world for 105,000-plus guests of all ages. From projection mapping and choreographed drones to 3D flying systems, high divers, ice skaters and slackliners, Royal Caribbean’s unmatched combination of talent, leading technology and creativity pushes the boundaries of what’s possible in entertainment across the globe.

Royal Caribbean International's Oasis of the Seas recently revealed its new, signature escape room. By solving mind-bending puzzles before time runs out, guests must come together to man their stations from Mission Control and successfully launch Apollo 18 to the moon. The flight director of the renowned Apollo program, Gerry Griffin, applauded the immersive experience’s level of detail, including the escape room’s resemblance to Johnson Space Center's Apollo Mission Control Center in Houston. Griffin visited Mission Control: Apollo 18 as part of his tour of the newly amplified ship that touts a $165 million lineup of new, thrilling features, from Royal Caribbean’s first barbecue restaurant to the tallest slide at sea.

Royal Caribbean International’s first barbecue restaurant, Portside BBQ, debuts on the newly amplified Oasis of the Seas with an authentic, meat-packed menu inspired by the best-in-class barbecue across the United States. Offering a variety of options, from smoked marbled brisket, pulled pork and turkey legs, to beef ribs and burnt ends, the casual eatery on the pool deck ties it all together with classic sides – think mac and cheese, homestyle cornbread, baked beans and coleslaw – and down-home desserts like the Banana Dream and a brownie-cookie mashup known as the Brookie.

Royal Caribbean International’s $165 million amplification of Oasis of the Seas takes shape in Cadiz, Spain. Set to debut in Miami on Nov. 24, the Oasis Class ship will deliver a lineup of new experiences, including the 10-story Ultimate Abyss. Watch how the tallest slide at sea is retrofitted to one of the world’s largest ships!

Go behind the scenes in Cadiz, Spain for a look at Royal Caribbean International’s largest amplification to date. Currently undergoing a major, $165 million transformation, Oasis of the Seas will soon set the stage for more memory-making vacations with new adventures and amenities for the whole family. From the tallest slide at sea, The Ultimate Abyss, to the cruise line’s first barbecue restaurant – Portside BBQ – and the Ultimate Panoramic suites with 200-degree, floor-to-ceiling views, the original gamechanger that revolutionized the industry marks its 10-year anniversary in a big way. The amplified Oasis will debut her new look in November 2019 to begin 7-night Eastern and Western Caribbean cruises from Miami, FL before heading to the Big Apple in May 2020 as the largest ship to ever sail from the Northeast.

For Oasis, one of the world’s largest cruise ships, arriving to St. Thomas in the Caribbean can be daunting. With narrow water ways, sailboats anchored in the harbor, a tight turn and just six feet of clearance below the keel, the water around this popular port is one of the most difficult to maneuver. But thanks to an expert marine team using the industry’s leading technology, arriving is just another day at the office for the Oasis of the Seas crew. With a local pilot offering his expertise on the currents and local marine environment, and powerful bow thrusters which gives the captain the control he needs to pull the 1,187-foot ship, this is nothing but smooth sailing.
