The medias received an announcement about the handover event on 27.11.

LNG-bunkering vessel Kairos is coming to bunker the Icon once again before the final departure.

The estimate for the Icon's final departure is still either 28 or 29.11.

@Panda Monium is there a slower version of the video of the family infinite veranda (first one on the video)?  So exciting to see it complete!

Click the 3 dots in the bottom right corner of the video and you can change the playback speed.

Yes I did that!  Was hoping for a longer video that showed the bunks at the end!

So not included...

Yep, not included 😞. What a bummer. I would expect nothing less from RCCL at this point...

How much??!! 😳 I mean, I expected a charge, but thought a max of $35… NOT $90! 😬

Wonder if this will be similar to I fly and Northstar where they have free sessions available on port days.

 

I booked it for day 6 of the inaugural.  If they are offering free sessions it give me lots of time to cancel.

Is that in the app?  I can't find it anywhere in my cruise planner.

It was under on board activities in mine.  Might be a bit too soon for yours.

Does it only show it available on sea days.  If so I think you are probably guessing correctly that port days it'll be included.  Kind of like Northstar

Yep, only sea days.  Fingers crossed it is like Northstar and Ifly

I think I will wait and see if they have free days.  😉

Get ready to start looking in the app as soon as you board.  It will go quick

Hi.  Back to the room videos, I focused on the last one, that they called the "Grand Suite Aft view".  Hmmm.  Do you think that he could mean the Sunset suite?  Only bc there are no aft Grand suites..  Also, on CDP it shows the grand suites on 16 and 17 as Infinite grand suites, and when it shows the floor for the IG, it says deck 9.  When we booked it on deck 17 it was a "regular" grand suite; not too worried but eager for those first real pix to come out...

I'm really afraid of heights, but I've been thinking I might want to try it.  Assuming port days are free, I guess it would be on a port day.

At this point I'm waiting for them to announce that they’re selling passes for the water park.

I think that part of the video is a regular Grand Suite (on decks 16 and 17). I say that because of the bed placement, and the TV on the side wall next to the bed before the sofa. There is a second TV on the opposite wall in the “nook” facing the sofa.

I won't be doing it but hubs will.  He can save his pennies till September!

[topanga49er]

Thank you.  That makes sense...

Me neither! I rate that right along with sky diving and bungie jumping; I won't do those either but Tom would do all of them! However, I did parasail once, many years ago, and loved it but not sure I would do that again today either. If we were on Icon at the same time, we could just sit and watch those silly boys, while we chat and enjoy a nice cocktail! Cheers!
