Oasis of the Seas will be created to amaze and delight!
Oasis of the Seas will be the first in the new Oasis class, followed by Allure of the Seas.

Central Park
Oasis of the Seas will feature such an architectural marvel as Central Park. The revolutionary design of this structure will open the very heart of the ship into the sky, covering it with lush vegetation comparable in length to a football field. Real living trees, grass and flowers will be planted in the park! This was unimaginable before! Guests will be able to enjoy leisurely walks through blooming tropical gardens, meals in restaurants, and enjoy shopping in stores.

Royal Promenade
The Royal Promenade, 19 meters high, will be built on the liner, on the first two floors of which there will be numerous cafes and bars, and on the third floor there will be cabins for guests. The fantastic Rising Tide will operate here - a bar that, like an elevator, will run three decks up, between the promenade and the central park. In the morning, the aromas of coffee and fresh pastries hover over the Promenade, during the day you can dine in restaurants and pizzerias, and in the evenings, guests will be waiting for the brightest parades, performances and entertainment!

Promenade deck (Boardwalk)
A colorful promenade deck with many alternative cafes and restaurants, a real French carousel, which houses a kids club and an entertainment area for teenagers.
Aqua Theater
Equipped in the form of an amphitheater at the stern of the liner, the water platform for acrobats and synchronized swimmers staggers the imagination of any traveler. Here you can even see an artistic performance on the water. Huge monitors are installed on the sides of the stage, which broadcast what is happening for those passengers who watch the performance from the decks. Springboards for acrobats, installations for water and light special effects. In the daytime, everyone can swim in the largest (15.7) and deep (6.6m) pool that has ever been installed on liners.

The Florida-based firm is hoping to find investors for its unique $10 billion project, a 1.4-kilometer floating city. The vessel, which received the name "Freedom Ship" ("Ship of Freedom"), should be the largest ever built by mankind and has no analogues. It is designed to be a completely autonomous place to live, heal, work, study, relax and have fun.

The project includes the equipment on board the "Freedom Ship" of apartments, clubs, art galleries, a park, a circus, ponds with waterfalls, large marine aquariums and many other various places for entertainment and recreation. It will be the largest duty-free shopping area with a giant mall. The superstructure of the ship, consisting of 25 decks, will provide space for libraries and schools, sports clubs and fitness centers, hospitals and medical centers, shops and banks, offices and light industry.

As a cruise ship, the Freedom Ship will continuously follow the same route around the globe, visiting most coastal areas around the world. Equipped on its upper deck, a runway and an airport for meeting and servicing helicopters and small private aircraft, as well as its own fleet of yachts, boats and submarines, would help passengers easily cross from shore to shore.



According to the plan, the city will have a length of 1,370 meters, a maximum width of 229 meters, a height of 107 meters and a displacement of about 2.5 million tons. It will accommodate 100,000 people, including 80,000 passengers and guests, as well as 20,000 crew members and a attendant. The hotels will provide permanent accommodation for 10,000 people.

The developers believe that the whole idea of ​​the autonomous floating city project should be based on four main components. First of all, it is a commercial area with the necessary number of jobs, able to satisfy the needs and interests of the entire population on board the ship. The second is the appropriate transport infrastructure to ensure the daily movement of goods and people. The third is a powerful all-level educational sector with highly qualified professionals. Finally, a healthcare system with a sufficient number of medical posts and clinics should be organized on board the floating city. If the Freedom Ship territory receives these four "keys", the city will live and prosper, and the value of business and housing in it will grow exponentially.

Speaking of the safety of a ship of such unprecedented dimensions, the developers assure that, with a flat hull length of 1,370 meters and a width of 229 meters, "Freedom Ship" will have unsurpassed stability, ensuring a smooth ride in the roughest seas. As additional measures, it is planned to equip about 600 isolated and individually controlled sections with water and air inside the hull.

Having completed a multi-year design phase, the Freedom Ship team is currently trying to find investors to realize this extraordinary project. "This is going to be a very hard project to capitalize on, and the world economy hasn't been very interested in unproven progressive projects like ours in the last few years," said Freedom Ship Project Manager Roger M. Gooch. "[But] we've seen a lot of interest in the project over the last six months and we're hoping to raise US$1 billion to start construction." The total cost of the project is estimated at US$10 billion.
