So excited for our Infinite Balcony! I love a balcony but to be honest we haven't sat out there for very long. I love the idea of opening the window to hear the ocean but being able to sit inside!

[@moyercabinets]

I cant wait, Ocean View Balcony is what we just booked for January 27, 2024!! I was surprised on price, For my family of 4 it was only $700 more than Odyssey, I was a no brainer, Just for reference it was $5700 for 4 of us. Thank You for all the great videos

and before your final payment day you still can reprice, so keep an eye on future promotions

This ship is beautiful, and as usual, your presentation is very informative! It is definitely oriented toward families with young children. We won't be scheduling anytime soon. There will be too many unsupervised children running around and into people.

Snagged our Interior for Sept 24 for around $2373. But will be watching for price reductions in the coming 19 months until we go. As long as there is a balance due you should be able to take advantage of these drops. Maybe even snag a Royal Up bid for a balcony by then. Long wait, but I feel this ship is worth it. Good Luck!

[@michaelskidmore5086]

I prefer standard balcony cabins. I’m going on this ship but not when it first comes out. The reason why I prefer standard balcony because I want to view a sunset and it gets my feet wet for balcony cabins and I just want to try out Royal Caribbean for the first time. I never been on a Royal Caribbean ship before so this is my first cruise onboard Icon or onboard Royal Caribbean in general. I did sail onboard Carnival Paradise back in 2013 so that was my first cruise.

[@sylviayusko9999]

RC is the ship of my choice. Ever!

[@Aggie4life77]

When taking a cruise and in the room, we’re either sleeping, napping or getting ready to leave. Rarely do we use a patio. A window is good enough for the natural light. Relaxing and enjoying the views are done in various areas of the ship! Save your money!

[@curtisendicott5989]

I tell you when I hear people make the same comments it’s because they spend no money and get less than desirable rooms if you had a suite you would spend time there and have a great time it’s all about the cruise date on prices

[@RedRoseSeptember22]

True but some of us like our privacy and don't want to share our space with others.

[@tanyabuydos7840]

Having a balcony really MAKES the cruise for me. I enjoy sitting outside in my own space enjoying a sunrise with coffee or a sunset with a glass of wine. I don’t think it is a waste of money at all. I would not cruise without a balcony. It is simply a matter of personal taste. My husband and I do not use the water slides or go to many shows, but the serenity of having peaceful time on the ocean is hard for us to pass up.

[@BGutcheon]

We are booked for the maiden voyage of ICON. Looking forward to this ship.

I looked at booking in March 2024. The price is higher than other ships going to the same islands. So I ask myself, is it worth it to pay that much more for this new experience? It will be my personal debate for several months.

[@eddiedouglas]

what's the difference between infinite Central Park view vs just a Central Park view. you mentioned it but didn't elaborate. Thanks in advance!

I really wish R.C and other cruise lines would add more single's cabins. I know Norwegian has them, but they are all inside cabins with a "Virtual Window".

[@jessicafeehan1070]

Celebrity's Edge Class ships have single balcony cabins - they're smaller than standard balconies, and some of them are obstructed by the tops of the lifeboats, but they're amazing!

[@mattstout6672]

We are booked on Icon for April 2024. We booked a sunset corner suite and got an amazing deal. After our sailing on Allure 2 weeks ago in the Royal Loft Suite, I wanted to upgrade us to the Royal Loft Suite on Icon. For 3 of us on Icon it was going to be almost $110k. Took some time to think about it…. And *BAM* it was booked a few days later. Our sailing is now fully sold out. 😳

[@JaredConnell]

Aren't you that guy who washes glasses!?!

[@vithevee]

i have a question: if you were to book the surf side family suite, would you still get to go to the suite neighborhood?

[@kathygarcia7395]

Sorry RC but you are promoting this is a family friendly but the rooms that hold 5 or more are way out of reach for most families. So most are still going to have to book adjoining cabins. So unless you have really deep pockets those family suites are way too costly. Two of my kids have a family of 5.

[@commonsense246]

A lot of those are already sold out so I guess some families can afford to save $ toward final payment for them! We have a full 19 months before our cruise. Start a vacation savings plan and go for it.

[@Ian-yf7uf]

You get what you pay for. If you want to afford a suite like that you'll have to time the trip to be in down season and make more money. That being said, when cruising I hardly spend any time in my room, so even if I had unlimited resources I probably wouldn't splurge for the suites with a butler unless it was a super big trip because room service is really quick on Royal Caribbean.

[@kathygarcia7395]

@@commonsense246 Yes, I imagine there are those who can afford it. I don't have anything against that. If we had the funds to do so I'd jump at the chance. From what I've seen on other posts that townhouse family cabin is going to run about 50,000 per person. I'd have to put a second mortgage on our house for just my husband and I. Let alone adding three or four children to the mix. 😳😂

[@kathygarcia7395]

@@Ian-yf7uf We also spent very little time in the cabin so we do inside nearly all the time. When we have done a balcony, it was only used to dry out wet clothes.🤠. We are Diamond level with RC, so sail with them often.

[@Aggie4life77]

It’s about those dollars! Single cabin means single pay! They want you to pay double for everything! NCL does provide them though!

[@xs10z]

I can''t imagine why a single would even consider getting on that boat when there are SO many other options. It's designed from bottom to top with families in mind.

[@kirstendunk8295]

Are there still 2 bedroom grand suites on Icon of the Seas?

[@rmzzz76]

Current lowest prices for Icon of the seas bookings for 2024 for a seven day cruise... all prices per person for a seven day cruise... Interior: $2058, Outside View: $2318, Balcony: $2559, Suite: $3937.... Your minimum price per day for an interior cabin is around $300/day on the Icon. They are really proud of this ship!!! What's missing are 3 and 4 day cruise options starting in that sub $600/per person category. You can find those deals on Royal Caribbean's other new giant ship Utopia of the Seas, with rates as low as $135/day, but for the new Icon it appears they are only doing seven day cruises in 2024 starting.... I would think there would be a smaller gap between Icon and Utopia pricing.

[@wendellnelson1118]

Wish the narrator wasn't trying to break a speed record for talking in describing this ship.

[@e.s.5529]

Great video. had some friends that went and they told me never to go. They said it was so expensive that it was actually shocking and comical. Four friends went and to give you an example they went to a little ice cream section and got 4 milkshakes..84.00 plus tax. The food for the price was the most disappointing thing they said it was so bad on everything from the food, and entertainment to additional activities it just killed the fun and the experience. One of my buddies said they could have all flown biz class and stayed at a villa in the Bahamas with everything included or had a customer trip for at least half the price ...at least( this included a chef). The cost for each couple was about 36k, they were in suites not including all the other stuff. obscene completely.

[@ciscoduncan1490]

It looks like a beautiful ship. But probably too expensive for my blood. Also I wish they would’ve made single cabins. NCL has very nice single cabins. I think that RC could have incorporated this on this ship. Thanks for the video.

[@lovlisparrow]

Was excited until I saw the prices. I'm usually one to splurge on everything, especially my cruises, but when I saw the prices for the balcony, I just couldn't book. I can do 3 cruises In a balcony, to the same locations with the same duration. I personally will only do Icon for overseas 9-12 days

Don't like the infant balcony because on a traditional balcony you can shut the door and keep the inside cool while you're out on the balcony.

[@aquavoce]

Everyone should have the right to afford a good vacation. Sometimes it feels like only those who pay more get all the bling and for the average just maybe some of the good things.
