How We Cruise:

Remembering those who gave their lives for our freedom today.

You may have heard us mention it, but here it is... the OFFICIAL announcement of the next group cruise.

That's right, we're heading back to the Oasis of the Seas from Bayonne, NJ in June 2027.

This ship is near and dear to our hearts.
She was the first Oasis class ship to sail from NY harbor and she was our first group cruise.

She feels like home to us and we can't wait to sail her again.

Due to the popularity of this ship and sailing date, only a limited number of group rate cabins are available. There is plenty of space at prevailing rate, but everyone who books with us, regardless of rate, will get the group amenities.

As with all our group cruises, expect additional events and surprises that are all still in the planning phase. In the past, we've done meet and greets, group shirts, group shore excursions, and group dining.

You're not going to want to miss this one, especially if you're coming from the Northeast.

So grab the kids, grab the family, and let's get booked on Oasis of the Seas for the next How We Cruise Group Cruise. It's time for Vacation Getaway! Let's Go-Go!

**Bookings made in May can be stacked with Royal Caribbean's current promotions that include extra on board credit based on cabin category.

⏰ FINAL BOARDING CALL (well… for the BEST promos anyway 😏)

Since we're not doing a YouTube livestream tonight, we wanted to give just a quick reminder that the May cruise promotions are only around for about ONE MORE WEEK. If you’ve been thinking about a cruise, this is a really good time to lock it in. 🚢

This is also a great time to grab the best rate on one of our upcoming group cruises. Both come with extra on board credit for booking in May!
