Okay so you might be joking about "everybody's favorite song" but...hearing that on boarding day is one my must-haves to start the cruise. Whole song. At least once. Must.
Oasis class ships are huge! Finding a quiet place for a live chat looks like a problem. Jay on ice skates would be priceless. Finding Dee’s around the ship is always exciting. Have fun you two.
I was just doing the math, you have gone on 48 cruises since the restart of cruising with the most recent being Norwegian Breakaway. That's more than double the amount of cruises I have gone on in the last decade! I'm so jealous of all the ships and adventures you go on. Thanks for letting us be apart of them!
They got like "snackses" and stuff. Here's what the chairs look like in the Diamond Lounge and here's what the carpet looks like... Another great vlog guys!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Good morning! Last week we booked the Oasis for the New Year, we wanted to spend the end of the year on a Cruise.we were on in 2010 and wanted to see the new Oasis
Love Oasis! Sailed on her in October 2021 out of Bayonne. One of our faves! Booked a jr suite to take advantage of their awesome double double sale they had. Just a few points away from hitting diamond. Headed to Brilliance in less than 2 weeks!!
If you use the royal Caribbean app , you can explore other cruises . So you would look at the weeks before & see what you wanted todo . Instead of waiting to see if anyone posted the schedule
@@parodeejay profile> select a different sailing > get more details on ships we support. Then just select which ship and which week & you can see the daily plan etc Works best selecting ones that are a week or two ahead of the current date, so that the planner is out Hope this helps
Dimond cookies!! Now we’re talking! Gangway on forklift😂😂. Goodness all that food look amazing! Welcome to the diamond club guys!! Can’t wait for the next episode!
SO excited for this series! I am sailing on the allure of the seas on the 13th of march and was hoping you would post it before I leave. can't wait for all of the oasis-class goodness
Thanks for showing me this big fat ship, Dee & Jay. I remember the pair of driving big bears with masks when Brandon of the Weekend Cruiser showed its promenade. I booked but had to cancel her in ‘10. I finally made it to Bermuda and the Bahamas in ‘19 but on the smaller Grandeur in ‘19. June of London, UK
At the end of your day, if you have any drink vouchers left, you can go to one of the bars and get cans of water or soda of your choice for your room. Nice option to having to buy a package for them. Great first day!
Oh no, "Wash Your Hands". I'm going to have that in my head for the day, like I do on embarkation Day. :) I love Oasis class; I have not been on Oasis itself- very cool to see it! I loved the preview of the Diamond perks; we're not quite there yet! Two more cruises should do it. I will have to let my husband that there is a potential pigs in blanket supply in the Diamond Lounge, he'll be very excited. Looking forward to the next vlogs, especially seeing Coco Cay next!
I noticed that the bathroom does not have shelves beside the mirror. I really like that on the Carnival ships (except on Mardi gras where there is only 1 side of mirrors). As for the rest .... I'm so happy for you reaching a diamond level, however, for the rest of us ..... is that "key lime pie" offered to all levels. Just asking, because my husband may just want to book just to get to that pie.
@@parodeejay The Lincoln Road promenade between Washington Avenue and Alton Road is the true heart of South Beach. Ocean Drive is the tourist armpit of South Beach and absolutely avoid the bars, restaurants, and shops around there and go to the Lincoln Road promenade instead which is right above 16th Street. And if you ever need to book a hotel room last-minute, save a lot with the HotelTonight ap which you can book until 2AM for that night!
We thought at first that we had to ask each time we wanted a "diamond drink" but by the end of the cruise, we learned that we just order normally and they can see that you have unused diamond drinks on your card. I guess you would let them know if you *didn't* want to use a diamond drink, like for a beer or something less expensive, if you wanted to save it for a cocktail, etc.
How do you get the key package? I checked the Royal site and can’t find a way to buy it the links don’t work. I am booked on Royal 7 day oasis end of Sept
It should be under your Cruise Planner in the same area you would buy internet and other add-ons. I guess it’s possible that it’s sold out for a particular sailing, but it can’t hurt to keep checking as the date gets closer.
Thank goodness! I was starting to go through ParoDeeJay withdrawal! Congratulations on making Diamond....that is my goal, but we have a ways to go. We just turned Platinum and with the double points they were offering we will be Emerald by our cruise in November.
We took a week off from posting so we could enjoy that first experience in the Mexican Riviera, yep! We didn’t feel like jamming up in our cabin missing most of the fun and working the whole cruise. We’re back now with Oasis vlogs, then Navigator vlogs will follow shortly after!!
@@parodeejay I hope you had a great cruise. It’s about time you guys took some time away from posting . My first cruise was actually the fair princess out of LA doing the classic love boat route you guys just did. First cruise, first time really leaving the U.S ( except Canada ) . I was on a travel agent fam trip with about 15 other folks because I was a cruise only travel agent who’d never been on a cruise. None of any of the “activities” hooked me. What hooked me & the high I’ve been chasing now for over 30 years is one night while everyone was dancing in the club, I went up to the top deck, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and I saw for the one and only time in my life the full Milky Way galaxy on a clear night & it was a transcendent moment. I was in that magic world being at sea between places and I saw those stars & it’s what I imagine heroine addicts talk about when they talk about that first high that they’ve been chasing their entire lives since it happened. That’s been the literally hundreds of cruises I’ve been on since then. I’ve had wonderfully amazing trips, but I’ve never felt the same awe that I felt on that first cruise on that night on the top deck , but it doesn’t stop me from trying.
The worst part of getting on the ship is planning and booking what events you want to do for the week who knows what day you want to do what? Sorry being on vacation shouldn't involve planning on what you want to do on YOUR VACATION and making reservations on a ship. Before someone says you plan excursions, yes that is true that process is different as you know what port of call is and what day and what you want to do for that port. I wish they would just forget these ship reservation bookings and do a first come first serve
Technically, they only restrict cameras in the area where the security and x-ray machines area, but we usually avoid the whole thing just to be safe!! :P
Whaaaaa? Oh, are you thinking the sock that we showed during our Navigator livestream that was the chicken crossing the road? I don’t remember showing off the Oasis sock as a sneak peek.
@Christine Dorbert We actually did a whole video with our thoughts on The Key after we first used it in early 2020, and I'd say most all the information still holds even during these Coronial Times!! :P ua-cam.com/video/4nT8jJPLTyY/v-deo.html
Can you please elaborate on the mask wearing on your cruise? You stated in the video mask required during show and everyone appeared to be wearing a mask while walking around. Here is the mask policy from RCL site and thus my confusion…..
These cruise videos were from early February 2022 when the policy was different. For our sailing, masks were required everywhere, indoors and out. They’ve relaxed the rules a bit since then.
Yes, we earned Diamond status on Allure Of The Seas in December 2021, but you don't get to use the benefits until the next cruise, which was this one!! :D
We don't really have any interest in it right now, since we've sailed three out of the four Oasis class ships recently. We're starting to feel like smaller ships may be in our future, ha ha... but I'm sure we'll eventually sail Wonder. Just not anytime in the immediate future!! :P
That is one of the smallest balconies I have ever seen. That looks like a small cabin for 2 people. I think I would have to go outside to change my mind.
I hope this is the last video of you guys wearing masks. I love seeing your facial expressions, Jay and the mask masks them. I tried purchasing the Key for our next cruise on the Wonder but it was sold out almost two months ago. Anyway, looking forward to this new vlog and your live stream. Cruise on guys 🤘
Dee is a travel agent and I'm a bookkeeper and payroll clerk, and we both have the flexibility to be able to work from anywhere in the world that we have internet. We're quite fortunate in that aspect!! :D ~Jay

About ready to go on the exact same cruise and same ship as first timers, and cannot wait. Thanks for the video.
Jay's sense of humor in the diamond lounge was the highlight of this video. Excited for this series
Always awesome!! So funny and entertaining u two. Awesome boat. Will be going on my first Royal Caribbean in May of this year
WOO HOO!!! So excited for a new vlog.
Thats my family in the background at 25:36! Awesome video bro! Cant wait for the other parts to come out
They got like "snackses" and stuff. Here's what the chairs look like in the Diamond Lounge and here's what the carpet looks like...
Another great vlog guys!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Awesome vlog as always.
Will be on November. Can’t wait
So nice to see you next adventure!!
So nice to see Oasis! I was on her in 2014 with my hubs and the kids. Going on Symphony this week!
Bon Voyage!
YEAH! I’ve missed you guys and am so glad to see this pop up this morning!!
Have a wonderful cruise.
Actually, I discovered that granny Smith apples with spicy brown or a good deli mustard are delicious! So, fruit and mustard can go together 😄
This is the most fun I have had watching these videos. You guys are great. We are on the Oasis in August from New Jersey.
Good morning! Last week we booked the Oasis for the New Year, we wanted to spend the end of the year on a Cruise.we were on in 2010 and wanted to see the new Oasis
Hi Dee and Jay!
Love Oasis Class ships 🛳❤️🌊
Beautiful sail away 🛳🌅🌊

Cool socks Jay!!! I need to get my hubby some.

We've never noticed a way to look at the previous cruise's activities in the app. We'll have to try to find that next time we're on Royal!!
@@parodeejay profile> select a different sailing > get more details on ships we support.

Works best selecting ones that are a week or two ahead of the current date, so that the planner is out

Clever! We'll have to try that, hah... thanks!! :D
Dimond cookies!! Now we’re talking! Gangway on forklift😂😂. Goodness all that food look amazing! Welcome to the diamond club guys!! Can’t wait for the next episode!
Just got off that boat last month! The amplification of the ship is beautiful
Editng Jay yes. and Fantastic Dee....Yes new series. cheers
Oasis!! Loved this ship!! I hope I haven’t made you afraid to ice skate, Jay!! I’m looking forward to the next one!
Really enjoyed your embarkation day video. You guys packed a lot into this first day and night. Look forward to following you in this cruise. 👍😀
Just subscribed. Love watching your vids. You both are great. Keep up the good work!
Oasis looks great. Looks like you had a fantastic day.
SO excited for this series! I am sailing on the allure of the seas on the 13th of march and was hoping you would post it before I leave. can't wait for all of the oasis-class goodness
Better late than never, but congrats on the diamond status! I am rather new to your channel and still have a few 🤭 videos to catch up!
That owl was on the ship when we were on it January 2nd. Glad he's still alive.

Bon Voyage! Looking forward to your vlogs for this trip!
1:34 I think you're literally sitting at the same table that I sat at when I had the Key lunch.
love you guys
Looking forward to meeting you both on Saturday the 5th Panorama.
dinner looked really good
Cool Michael kay is either on or was on oasis but can’t wait to see the navigator vlogs
I would totally sail on Royal for 80 days just to sit on those chairs and stand on that carpeting in the diamond lounge, worth it.
Good morning guys! We took the Jan 6 western Carribean on oasis and the owl was on board at that time.
20:33 I found the duck! I don't have a Facebook account, so I kept it.
Finally! Your Oasis of the Seas series. Can’t wait to see them all.
I been on the Oasis of the seas twice.
We are looking into booking this ship for next spring, we thought the central park view balcony was pretty interesting.
They got some Dee's in the Diamond Lounge.🤣 Jay you need to pic you up one I heard the Dee's were very cute!☺️
At the end of your day, if you have any drink vouchers left, you can go to one of the bars and get cans of water or soda of your choice for your room. Nice option to having to buy a package for them. Great first day!

i missed you guys!! You are part of my morning
Missed you
look under bed for power we found power last day of the cruise
yay
Oh man! You smoked us on our "what did they eat" game.... we only got your desserts! 🙃🍰
Great video. Do you know if you have to climb a lot of stairs to ride the slides?
The waterslides on the ships? It looked like 40-50 stairs, I would say.
@@parodeejay Thanks

"We usually are interior folks" ✨INTERIOR GORL✨
Nice ship! What does the owl eat?? 🦉 😳
Someone said they were leaving out scraps from the specialty restaurants there in Central Park for it to eat!! :D
@@parodeejay wow!!
Enjoy! Love your VLOG'S! Unlike the other 2 your always gonna get a 👍 up!!!!
3700 capacity seemed empty how did it feel for you guys. We board in 6 days Woo Hoo
Bon Voyage!
We had "The Key" on the Anthem January sailing from Bayonne. It was very disappointing and not worth the cost.
In the MDR can you order more than one entrée?
Sure!! :D
I would spend a lot of time in the Diamond Lounge just for the free beverages. 🤣🤣🤣
Have you been to Lincoln Road in South Beach yet?
I don’t believe we have!!
@@parodeejay The Lincoln Road promenade between Washington Avenue and Alton Road is the true heart of South Beach.

Who was the singer at the show at the end? He sounded very good!
Finis Henderson, a singing comedy impressionist!! :D
@@parodeejay Thank you for the info! Hope you two enjoy the Radiance this week!
Haven’t been on rc n a while. Is the key a purchased upgrade or a status perk?
It’s their paid priority program, similar to Faster To The Fun on Carnival.
How do you ask for your diamond drink exactly? Do you just ask for a drink and they automatically know you get your free drink??
We thought at first that we had to ask each time we wanted a "diamond drink" but by the end of the cruise, we learned that we just order normally and they can see that you have unused diamond drinks on your card.

Didn’t you guys just take a cruise out of Los Angeles to the Mexican Rivera? Did something go wrong? I noticed a break in posting .

Do have to be a specific loyalty level to book the key?
No, it’s open to all. Anyone with a wallet is welcome!! :P
Wait Jay did you see the pigs n blanket lol.
Pigs in blaaaaankets!! :O
What is the Key?
Royal Caribbean’s paid priority program, sort of like Carnival’s Faster To The Fun.
@@parodeejay Thank you for the information
Did Dee get a new phone? Looked like a Pixel 6?
She did! Google Pixel 6. :D
What I hate about the Diamond lounge on the large ships is there are no windows. Smaller ships are up and have views of the water. Just my opinion.
Why wont they let you record in the tetmimal
Technically, they only restrict cameras in the area where the security and x-ray machines area, but we usually avoid the whole thing just to be safe!! :P
Jay tricked us with sock of the day. He gave us a sneak peek but then changed them on the vlog!
Whaaaaa? Oh, are you thinking the sock that we showed during our Navigator livestream that was the chicken crossing the road? I don’t remember showing off the Oasis sock as a sneak peek.
Oh ok. Got my live vlogs off.
What’s the key??😧
The key is like a pay benefit. You pay an extra cost and you'll receive several benefits, like especial lunch, priority embarkation, among others.
Royal Caribbean's paid priority program, similar to Faster To The Fun from Carnival.
@@captainmauricee1694 is it worth it? I've never heard of it. Thank you!
