Royal Caribbean Oasis-Class Ships Ranked by Price

Royal Caribbean has six Oasis-class ships. Same hull design, same class name, same Central Park and Boardwalk and FlowRider. The price gap between the cheapest and most expensive? Fifty-nine percent.

That's not marketing spin. Across 302,064 tracked fares, two ships from the same class sit $93/night apart for the same cabin type. Most "Oasis-class comparison" articles compare deck plans and waterslides. This one compares what you'll actually pay.

The Ranking: Every Ship, Every Cabin Type

Weighted median per-person, per-night rates.

The top three cluster within $5/night of each other. If you're choosing between Harmony, Allure, and Symphony, pick the departure port you prefer. Price isn't the deciding factor.

Age doesn't predict cost. Allure is from 2010 and costs less than Oasis from 2009. Symphony is the newest of the four long-cruise ships and one of the cheapest. The assumption that newer ships always cost more doesn't hold here.

Suites follow a different order. Harmony has the cheapest suites in the class despite being mid-pack for inside cabins. If you're suite shopping, the value hierarchy reshuffles. We broke down every ship by every cabin type in our Oasis-class cabin pricing guide.

Two Ships in This Class Are a Different Product

That 59% price gap is real, but it's also slightly misleading. The six Oasis-class ships split into two tiers that function as different products.

Wonder and Utopia sail almost exclusively 3-4 night itineraries. Out of 233 tracked Wonder sailings, 232 are short cruises. All 249 Utopia sailings are 3-4 nights.

Shorter cruises always cost more per night — the ship runs the same operating costs whether it sails 3 nights or 7, so the per-night rate on a weekend sailing comes in higher. That's not a value judgment. It's how cruise pricing works everywhere.

Comparing Utopia's pricing to Harmony's is like comparing a hotel's Saturday-only rate to a full-week booking. The more useful comparisons happen within each tier.

The 7-Night Ships

For a traditional week-long cruise, four Oasis-class ships compete head-to-head. This is where the class delivers its best value against the rest of Royal Caribbean's fleet.

Median per-person, per-night. These ships sail primarily 7-night itineraries.

Harmony and Allure are the clear value leaders. Both sit under $160/night for a balcony — roughly $1,750 less than a comparable Icon-class sailing for two guests over a week.

Symphony is the deal machine. It's slightly pricier than Harmony and Allure, but it produces more deals than any other Oasis-class ship. Its Galveston home port creates more pricing variance, which means more chances for fares to dip below the baseline. For the full head-to-head, see our Harmony vs Symphony comparison.

Oasis is the surprise. Despite being the oldest ship in the class, it's the most expensive 7-night option. That's a port premium — Fort Lauderdale and seasonal New York departures command higher rates than Galveston or Port Canaveral. The oldest ship costs more because of where it sails from, not what it is.

Inside cabins are a coin flip. The spread across all four ships is just $12/night. If you're booking inside, pick whichever port is closest.

The Short-Cruise Ships: Utopia vs Wonder

Both ships sail 3-4 night Caribbean itineraries out of Florida. Both stop at Perfect Day at CocoCay. Both are Oasis-class. The difference is the price tag.

Wonder undercuts Utopia consistently. The gap runs 15-28% depending on cabin type, scaling larger as you move up to premium cabins. Suites show the biggest spread.

This is a newness premium, pure and simple. Utopia launched in 2024, Wonder in 2022. They share the same class, the same itineraries, and the same ports. The extra cost buys you a ship that's two years newer — and that's about it. We mapped the full gap in our Utopia vs Wonder price comparison.

Oceanview and balcony are nearly the same price on both ships. The gap between them is just a few dollars per night. If you're deciding between the two cabin types, balcony is almost always the better play — you get an outdoor space for essentially the same cost.

---

How Pricing Varies by Cabin Type

The ranking at the top of this page uses overall medians. But the six ships don't behave the same way across cabin categories.

Oceanview and balcony cost almost the same on every ship. On most Oasis-class ships, the difference between an oceanview and a balcony is less than $5/night. You're paying a few dollars more for an actual outdoor space — making balcony the obvious value pick over oceanview.

Suites don't follow the standard ranking. Harmony has the cheapest suites in the class, cheaper than even Symphony. Wonder's suites are the second cheapest despite the ship being much newer. Suite pricing depends more on inventory configuration and demand than ship age.

Inside cabins cluster tightly for the 7-night ships. All four long-cruise ships land between $140-152/night for inside. The gap only opens up when you move to Wonder and Utopia territory.

When Oasis-Class Ships Go on Sale

Prices aren't static. Every ship follows seasonal patterns, and some are more volatile than others.

Cheapest Season by Ship

Fall is the cheapest season for most of the class. Four of six ships hit their lowest pricing in September through November. The fleet average drops to $182/night in fall versus $225/night in summer. For the full timing breakdown including drop frequency and volatility by ship, see when Oasis-class prices actually drop.

Symphony rewards flexibility the most. With a 38% swing between its cheapest and most expensive seasons, booking Symphony in the right quarter saves meaningful money. A spring Symphony sailing costs the equivalent of a fall Oasis — same class, very different price.

Wonder is the most forgiving on timing. Only 16% separates its cheapest and priciest seasons. If your schedule is inflexible, Wonder is the ship where bad timing hurts the least.

Which Ships Produce the Most Deals?

Symphony, Wonder, and Utopia generate deals regularly. Their higher deal volume comes from more pricing variance — these ships are more likely to see fares dip below their own historical baseline.

Allure and Harmony rarely produce deals, but that's actually a good sign. They're already priced so low that there isn't much room for the scoring algorithm to flag a fare as exceptional. When you're already paying bottom-of-class rates, you don't need to wait for a deal.

How Oasis-Class Compares to Icon-Class

The obvious question: is the newer Icon-class worth the premium?

Weighted class medians across all ships. Oasis: 6 ships, 215,494 samples. Icon: 2 ships, 62,492 samples.

The balcony gap is the headline. Icon-class balconies run roughly $98/night more than the Oasis-class median. For two guests over a week, that's about $1,370 in savings by going Oasis-class.

But there's a catch at the top of the Oasis lineup. Utopia's balcony pricing ($250/night) is only 12% cheaper than Icon of the Seas. If you're weighing Utopia against Icon, the savings are marginal — and it's worth asking whether Icon's newer amenities justify the last bit of premium. We mapped the full Oasis-class vs Icon-class price comparison if you're deciding between classes.

Bottom Line

Oasis-class ships are the sweet spot of Royal Caribbean's fleet — the biggest-ship experience at meaningfully lower prices than Icon-class. But the six ships in this class aren't priced the same, and the gaps are wide enough to shift your vacation budget.

The top three 7-night ships cluster within $5/night. The real decision is between tiers: the 7-night ships that run $157-180/night, and the short-cruise ships that run $208-250/night. Within each tier, the differences are about ports, seasonal timing, and whether chasing a deal matters to you.

The worst move is assuming all Oasis-class ships cost the same. They don't.

Cruise Radar scores every Oasis-class fare 0-100 based on 302,000+ price snapshots, then shows you the score right on the booking page — so you'll know whether the price you're seeing is good for that specific ship.

Methodology

This analysis draws from 302,064 price snapshots across 1,090 unique sailings on all six Oasis-class ships, tracked October 2025 through February 2026. Weighted medians account for sample size differences across seasons and durations. Deal scores use our 0-100 algorithm that compares each ship's fare to its own historical baseline — not class-wide averages. For our full methodology, see how it works.
