However, the recession is biting into the industry with new ship launches    dramatically down this year. Royal Caribbean said it has not sold out all its cruises on the new ship.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eDespite the downturn, figures from the Passenger Shipping Association project    that 1.55 million Britons are expected to take a cruise holiday in 2009 - up    from 1.35 million last year. By 2012 it estimated 2.2 million Britons will take a cruise. This is a    doubling of the UK cruise industry in 10 years. There will now be a series of further celebrations on board until the ship    goes on its first paying cruise on December 1. Prices start from £1,786 for a nine-night eastern Caribbean fly-cruise on    board the ship.\u003cdiv class\u003d\"blogger-post-footer\"\u003e\u003cimg width\u003d'1' height\u003d'1' src\u003d'https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6275267157221297537-741625769203838984?l\u003dwww.travelphant.com' alt\u003d'' /\u003e\u003c/div\u003e"},"link":[{"rel":"replies","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http://www.travelphant.com/feeds/741625769203838984/comments/default","title":"Post Comments"},{"rel":"replies","type":"text/html","href":"http://www.travelphant.com/2009/11/oasis-of-seas.html#comment-form","title":"0 Comments"},{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6275267157221297537/posts/default/741625769203838984"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6275267157221297537/posts/default/741625769203838984"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"http://www.travelphant.com/2009/11/oasis-of-seas.html","title":"Oasis of the Seas - Pictures and Videos"}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"Cool Stuff"},"uri":{"$t":"http://www.blogger.com/profile/08805395584571320029"},"email":{"$t":"noreply@blogger.com"},"gd$extendedProperty":{"xmlns$gd":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005","name":"OpenSocialUserId","value":"17631964918805107413"}}],"media$thumbnail":{"xmlns$media":"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/","url":"http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_gfXupHOEhH0/SxFVO27di2I/AAAAAAAAMzk/p0lPnabTEi0/s72-c/Oasis+of+the+Seas+ship.jpg","height":"72","width":"72"},"thr$total":{"$t":"0"}},{"id":{"$t":"tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275267157221297537.post-4069405048947156244"},"published":{"$t":"2009-11-02T14:43:00.012Z"},"updated":{"$t":"2009-11-02T16:19:26.711Z"},"category":[{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"Travel Pictures"},{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"Cool Hotels"},{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"Romantic Hotels"}],"title":{"type":"text","$t":"Cool Tree Hotels"},"content":{"type":"html","$t":"Want a cool but romantic hotel setting and something a little different?
