Do they get any compensation from the cruise companies? Great flow and editing. The guy on the left smiling so hard creeps me out a bit but everything else is great. They are both handsome but smiling widely the whole video can be offputting.

Just got off Icon. Best cruise ive ever taken didnt get off on any ports but coco cay, it was magnificent with everyone off the ship in the ports. Hit every single waterslide bout ten times a pop except for the drop slide 40 times.

When it comes to the Hideawa daybeds... We had the center bed while at St. Thomas and Overall we loved it. The view was spectacular and the pool wasn't too crowded because we were at port. A Bonus was we left port early enough (2PM I think) to enjoy some wake view as well. We really didn't have much issue with anyone using the bed as a table or anything like that even when the pool filled up. BUT yous absolutely nailed it with the lack of service. We were expecting a casita experience like we had on Oasis. We couldn't finish a drink in the Casita because the server wouldn't let it empty. But on Icon I found myself running to the hideaway bar a lot which was very disapoining for the money we spent on those beds. Great and informative review and thanks for taking us back down memory lane! We can't wait to sail on Icon again! Great and informative

Great video! We are sailing on Icon in April, and we booked the day bed. Once we saw the videos, the crowds, and all that we quickly canceled. We used some of that money and booked the beach club at Coco Cay.

We just got off of Icon of the Seas yesterday - had an amazing time - and largely agree with all your comments! We did find some areas that got crowded (on seas days it was hard at times to find loungers on the main pool deck, saw people saving spots in Dueling Pianos an hour or more ahead of time, etc) - there were ~6,000 guests on our sailing so do wonder how things will be when at full capacity. But overall, an excellent ship with great food and wonderful service.

I'm so glad you mentioned the bench seating situation in the dome. I had lumbar fusion (2020) and a hip replacement (2023), and while these surgeries fixed specific problems, I still have other back and hip problems that would make bench seating torturous for me, especially for 45 minutes. Great call on thinking about and mentioning things like this in your video. :) And the clashing music? Nails on a chalkboard. Yikes.

From watching a lot of other reviews from people also on these first Icon cruises, couple of questions: 1. Was the ship full? All reviews so far have had 2/3 full. A 5-7k passanger vessel with only 3-4k passengers will feel great and open. 2. Food. RC already admitted they are spending about 30%+ more on the first 9 or so cruises on Icon to make sure everything is above standard RC food. So it will be interesting to see what it is like on a fully FULL cruise with the standard $$$ being spent on food and events.

We were on a full capacity cruise and I must say there's a point where it felt too overwhelming and at times was spacious. Depends on where you're at and what's happening at the time. Biggest issue for us was - too many kids. Not even the Carnival Mardi Gras had sooooo many kids. It was ridiculous.

Guys we think you did an excellent job on this review. We were on that sailing as well and said hi. I loved the cruise and can’t wait to take our grandson on her in August. One item I thought you’d bring up was the weird pass thru walk thru Playmakers. Takes away from the venue. Totally agree with your ugly. Get rid of those beds! (Glad you didn’t bring up the safe cutout again. It didn’t come close to being ugly for me. What a BEAUTIFUL ship and Worth it! Thanks!

I would like to see a complete break down of cost. What are the cabin costs, specialty dining costs, drink packages, etc. I will admit the entertainment looks amazing, but if that is the only truly exceptional perk, cost could be an issue. Oh btw, I do find your videos very informative. I have recently become a big fan of cruising and the info I get from your videos has been very useful.

Unfortunately it was a big problem for me during the aqua show! I actually had to put my head down and close my eyes during the part where they shined flashlights around…missed a lot of the show.

My good friends. You missed a negative. With the smart elevators, they are not accessible to people who are low vision or blind. The touchscreen does not talk to a low vision or a blind person know what they actually touched. That is the only way to call the elevators on the icon of the seas. 26:59

Hi AJ! Sorry we didn’t address this in the video. They do have an accessibility feature on the touch screen with a textured and lifted button. When this button is pressed it does speak to you allowing the cruiser to utilize the elevators! We didn’t mention this as a negative because we did try this feature and it seemed to work for the guests who needed this onboard.

We don’t believe so! There would only be about 1k more people, and thought that sounds like a lot, there was a lot of space throughout the ship at all times. The only area this would be a potential issue is Dueling Pianos as that is too small of a space in our opinion but even on our sailing there were nights where there were some seats available.

I was so disappointed it did not sail Europe as very first planned but things change. Maybe I will get to sail her in the next couple of years. But first I intend to try out NCL VIVA and sun princess. I will be interested in how utopia compares to icon however it is wizard of Oz that is edging me to icon. Just like it is beetle juice on viva that is winning me over sailing on prima 👍

@corneliusw09
@corneliusw09 9 ай бұрын
My father is recently below the knee amputated for one of his legs. This just happen so he hasn't been on a cruise recently, but in the past there have been space for a power chair for him to get around. My father in law also has used a power chair. So perhaps you could rent one, I think pre-covid it was going for about $200-300 for a full cruise sailing if you don't own one already. There's actually a lot of walking space and we've always done Oasis class with both sides of the family. They have never complained that it was too busy or difficult to get around. Of course if you're attending a main show then it will be busy during the release but besides that you will be fine and people should be respectful of you getting around. There's a big difference between RCCL Oasis cruises (and Icon) vs. land resorts that's all inclusive. There's really no fair comparison. The amount of entertainment on a ship far surpasses any land based resort. The amount of food choices far surpasses any land based resorts. The one thing resorts win on are the pools are much larger due to being on land. Book an handicap accessible room and you should be just fine. Our senior parents talks about cruises all the time. My dad just got amputated and is already talking about wanting to do another cruise next year. Live your life!

Congrats to RCL for listening to customer feedback and working hard to put together such an amazing ship.

Hi JJ Cruise. So I watched this video before and after sailing Icons 4/13 sailing. It is a beautiful ship. I agree with most your assessment. The music bleed was bad all around. Trying to listen to Andy C at Schooner and he was overshadowed by spotlight karaoke. I hate the seating in the aquadome. I think all rows should have backs and I think the VIP seating is wasted space, more could sit instead of standing. We got there an hour early and thankfully got the seats with backs. An older couple in front of us left early, guy was fidgety. Agree the MDR was good, service exceptional! Shout out to our waiters on 3rd floor, table 271! The shows are fantastic! The ice show was my favorite. Although the location is horrible IMO. All in all its a beautiful ship. I do still prefer Oasis class. I will wait till unnamed Icon 3 maybe or sail Icon again when the prices go down. Great review!

We think a lot of people believe capacity was super low. It was not. In fact, capacity is very similar to what a lot of cruise ships are sailing at currently. We hope to be back in the future, but highly doubt the additional 600-1k guests will affect our views as there was what felt like endless space on this ship. Dueling Pianos would be the main concern in our minds but that’s normal for most cruise ships with their piano bars. 😅

Thanks for your review. However, acquaintances while been cruising for 30 years said the buffet on the Icon was exceptional. There was seafood: lots of crab, lobster, shellfish, prawns. Other reviewers said same. I thought it was interesting that you compared chicken tenders. When I started crusing in the 1990s, there was no chicken tenders. I tended to eat more of the whole foods, not processed. I don't understand why people eat the cheap food on cruise ship these days. 😅

You should review it at full capacity? And it looks overpriced at the present ?
@JJCruise
@JJCruise 8 ай бұрын
Full Capacity is only up to a thousand or so extra guests spread out amongst the ship. It’s super well planned out except for the few venues noted. As for price, it’s selling like hotcakes, so we wouldn’t say overpriced, but maybe just priced higher than the average cruiser is willing to pay for a cruise. ☺️
