New Oasis of the Seas- itinerary changes before it begins to sail

The much awaited Oasis of the Seas, the new monmouth sized Royal Caribbean cruise ship with an aqua theatre, merry go round, zip lining and its own Central Park (just to name a few) has some itinerary changes- before it even starts sailing.

Falmouth, Jamaica was to have been a new cruise port in the Caribbean but it is not anticipated to be ready to welcome the 225,000 ton Oasis of the Seas when it begins sailing in December.

Now to compliment the Western Caribbean itinerary (including Cozumel and Labadee- Royal Caribbean's private beach destination), Falmouth will be replaced with Costa Maya between May and November of 2010. Falmouth will return to the Oasis' itinerary in December 2010.

Costa Maya has recently rebuilt its cruise pier after hurricane damage closed it for many months. In addition to a beautiful beach, cruise passengers can enjoy ATV tours, snorkeling and sailing catamaran trips and can explore Mayan Ruins.

Royal Caribbean fans are anxiously awaiting the Oasis of the Seas and the ship itself is a destination. The ship starts sailing in December 2009.
