Because of its size, the "Oasis of the Seas" which is owned by Royal Caribbean International can only dock at very few ports such as the newly purpose-built docking station that officially opened on December 3, 2009 in Labadee, Northen coast of Haiti.

Crossing the Atlantic ocean from Fort-Lauderdale, Fl., to set sail for Haiti, the most luxurious and expensive commercial vessel ever built will surely pave the way to more opportunities in the tourism sector, since Labadee holds a museum of History on Haiti which displays an exhibition of tourism movement in the Caribbean and of the bicentennial of the city of Port-au-Prince. According to the Minister of Tourism Patrick Delatour, there will be hereafter excursions that will allow visitors to tour Cap-Haitien, the Citadelle, the Sans-Souci Palace and its surroundings. A plan that should go along with new infrastructures and be quickly materialized with the tax-money contributed by Royal Caribbean to the Haitian government.

With the arrival of the "Oasis of the Seas" that coincides with the inauguration of the 814- feet long dock in Labadee, Haiti welcomes the world's largest and most revolutionary cruise ship ever constructed. Designed for Royal Caribbean International, this luxury cruise liner features 16 decks, 2700 staterooms, and the capacity to accommodate 5,400 guests at double occupancy.

It is also equipped with 16 bridges, 21 swimming pools, a casino, a water park or a board walk within a 12,000 trees and shrubs lush green landscape named "Central Park". This feat of architecture is five times the tonnage of the Titanic and longer than any aircraft carrier in the US fleet.

Lately, Labadie has become one of the most favorite destinations for travelers in the Caribbean, thus opening a new window on Haiti, its rich culture and marvelous history as portrayed in the awe-inspiring documentary "Haiti's Hidden Treasures II" which features Labadie and many other spectacular sites in Haiti. During the past couple of years, Labadie has also welcomed more than 600,000 tourists annually, a number that will surpass 1,000,000 by next year and will generate more activities, wealth, and more jobs in the region.

In fact, troubadours, dancers, craftsmen, hair braiders, security guards, workers for maintenance and service on the beach and on board coming from various villages in the North make good profits when the Royal Caribbean cruise ship anchors at Labadee bay.
