What deck is Royal Promenade on Oasis of the Seas?

Guests enjoy a cocktail while gently moving between three decks, taking in the scenery along the way from the Royal Promenade on deck 5 to Central Park on deck 8.



On Royal Caribbean’s Oasis of the Seas, the Royal Promenade is primarily located on Deck 5. This expansive, two-story thoroughfare serves as the heart of the ship, stretching nearly the entire length of the vessel and mimicking a bustling city street or high-end shopping mall. It is home to a variety of bars, retail shops, and dining venues, including the famous Sorrento’s Pizza, the Cafe Promenade, and the Rising Tide Bar, which is a unique moving platform that travels vertically between the Royal Promenade on Deck 5 and Central Park on Deck 8. Because the Promenade is two decks high, its upper "mezzanine" level effectively extends into Deck 6, where you will find the Schooner Bar and the loyalty lounges. It is the primary area for indoor parades, guest services, and nighttime entertainment.

As a rule of thumb, most of the Oasis of the Seas cabins to avoid are those on Deck 3 below the ice rink and the casino; staterooms on decks 6 and 7 closest to the theater, and those on Deck 14, as they're subject to noise from the pool deck directly above.

On most ships, you'll find the promenade deck located mid-way between the lowest and highest decks. Many modern cruise ships have 14+ decks and the promenade deck can usually be found on decks 6, 7 or 8. The promenade deck has to be located here because of the role it plays in safety and the deployment of lifeboats.

Why is there no floor 13 on Royal Caribbean? The superstitious nature of seafaring culture is the likely reason why there is no deck 13 on cruise ships. It's believed that having a deck 13 would bring bad luck to the ship and its passengers, so it's been avoided for centuries.

buddylover. We have found the Oasis class in general, to be the least crowded of any ship on any cruise line we have sailed! Been on the Harmony and the Allure and other than Windjammer on embarkation day lunch and disembarkation day breakfast, we always commented on how 'uncrowded' these ships felt.

A gangway is a narrow walkway or platform that provides safe access to a ship, truck, or train.

Cabins that are near the ship's anchor You might not know where the anchor is placed on the deck plans, but typically, it is on a lower deck near the front (or forward) of the ship. If you want to ensure a peaceful morning, try to avoid cabins that might be located near the anchor.
