The second picture begs this question...

I wonder who the first casualty will be from falling over the balcony railing inside of the Loft Suite?

Thanks for the pictures AkerBuilder. The dining room will be beautiful, it's a mix of modern and traditional styling. I'm a bit disappointed with the loft suite's decor, the stair is too thick along with blue carpet which should've been light brown/tan, the wood flooring look great though.

Thanks Aker. Did I miss the 'official' reveal of the main dining room? Is there an artists rendering?

No Malcolm, unfortunately there was no reveal for the main dining room and no renderings although there is a small clip showing this space.

If her delivery is set for 36 days from now (Oct 1st?), and the first known TA events for her in the states is roughly around November 20, what happens in the month and a half in between? I thought when the cruise lines took delivery she was basically finished? That gives them 6 weeks until she is in the states.

Today there was a shipyard sponsored tour of Oasis. As a result a a lot of the major industry journalists were on hand. The result is a ton of new pictures. I compiled the most interesting ones here (including the ones above.)

Thanks for all the pictures. The Royal Promenade looks good with the green glass dome. Too bad its only the glass protector. Her interiors looks stunning.

The most amazing thing is Allure of the seas. From an external viewpoint she looks almost finished.

Ok so STX is having an "open house" sort of for industry news outlets and Richard Fain is accompanying them and he went public with the decision to paint the hull baby blue.

On the RCI site, it mentions two baths-one on each level and the loft sleeps 6 (2 up 4 down)

That cam is already way too slow... Imagine what it'll be with all the traffic going to the cam when Oasis comes in...

I really like the loft suites, however they are a little bit on the small side though.

Maybe the renderings look small but the Royal Loft suite is 1,542 sq feet, Sky loft 722 sq ft, Crown Loft suites are 545 sq ft (measurements include balconies). So they are substantial sized suites plus you have that wall of windows which adds to the grand apperance.

No Greg, that cam isn't slow. Wiley just did an upgrade to it. And he travels with the ships when they depart. He has one cam on a palm tree and a hand held cam. The hand held cam is great. The Mortgage Mobile cam is the one where you have to wait before you can control it and I find that to be nice as well, but not as nice as Wiley's.
