Oasis of the Seas is the first ship of the Oasis class and was the largest passenger ship in the world at the time of her completion, setting a new capacity record by carrying over 6,000 passengers. The vessel was designed under the name "Project Genesis" and built by STX Europe's Turku Shipyard in Finland, with her name chosen through a competition held in 2008. During her christening ceremony, the ship was sponsored by seven godmothers including Gloria Estefan, Michelle Kwan, and Jane Seymour, each representing one of the ship's seven neighborhoods.
