October 25, 2024 - Utopia of the Seas

Utopia of the Seas is a new Oasis class ship, but she'll be unlike the others, with unique offerings and endless opportunity for fun - whether you're a family, a couple, or just someone who needs an escape for three or four nights.  In the past, it was often older ships, or at least less "WOW" ships making weekend runs, so we decided to check this out for ourselves just after she launches.  With a new tiki bar, a train-themed immersive restaurant, multiples pools, world-class shows, we figured we needed to check her out.  Making it all the better is the price.  Our friends at  read more
