Allure of the Seas: Sanitation Record & Health Report
ShipTea Verdict
Allure is the second Oasis-class ship and, like its older sister, has been refurbished but shows its 2010 origins. A strong 97 CDC score keeps it competitive. At 5,400 passengers, it offers the full mega-ship experience at prices often lower than the newer Royal Caribbean ships.
Allure and Oasis are essentially identical in layout, but Allure has received slightly more recent updates. The difference is marginal — pick whichever has the better itinerary or price.
**Who it's for:** Budget mega-ship cruisers. Royal Caribbean loyalists wanting the classic Oasis-class experience. Families sailing from East Coast ports.
**Who should skip it:** Anyone who wants the newest ship features. People bothered by older design aesthetics.
