Icon of the Seas Blocks Are In The House!

[Secretlyfi]

I think I remember reading there was supposed to be a media event for Icon held on Oasis sometime in September.  Anyone know if that's happening or postponed?  I also agree it's questionable whether they are really on schedule to release itineraries on Sept 12, which is less than 10 days from now.

I think the media event is also Sept. 12th.

A new video with Carnival Celebration & the Icon of the Seas (wait for the end of video for full shot of Icon 🙂 )

Here is a nice screen shot.

It appears that Promenade deck sticks out pretty far from the side of the ship. I am hoping they do something like NCL's waterfront there. 

 

The other thing that sticks out to me is the lack of portholes on the lower decks. Very few OV cabins it appears to me.

I'm  looking forward to the new blocks that go in this spot. We only have a portion of the seating area for the venue here. Want to see more pieces of it. 😎

Definitely interesting and high/tall. Not sure if it’s the lighting but I think I like the shade of blue and the white trim.

Why all the fuss regarding the bow.
Designers made a point how good  the bulbous bow  was, then they designed  a  a bow  similar to the titanic's bow designed in  1908?

I think it looks great.

[Fairsky84]

Agreed. It looks sleek and far more stylish than the vertical bows on Edge or Prima-class ships.
