I agree with you that I dare not try the Thrill Island....but this Icon design is very attractive, and cannot wait to try it....thanks for the heads up introduction!
Actually that's not true. I been to couple oasis class and they all feel pretty smooth, there are lots of people of course, but it never get to a point that I feel it is "too much ppl", except one time I do have to wait for 2 hour for ground transportation but it is more like the shore excursions' contractor's fault.
@@tarotaro6933 Depending on whether it is fully booked or not. I have been to Symphony of Seas (?) for 5000+ people, and almost full ship. I had to line up and fight for a seat for every meals, and during the meal, they continued to urge people to leave asap after they finished theirs to let the others to have your seat. It's not enjoying! I don't believe cruises are proportionally increasing all facilities to the number of increased customers. It's common sense, not all the trips are fully booked!
@@fyc55 r u sure? Main dinner is always schedule on a fix schedule base on your preference there shouldn't be on a "first come first serve" base let alone for "fighting for a seat". I been on symphony of the sea twice with one visit fully booked (6500 passengers) before and main dinner experience is always top notch. What you describe is unheard of not just for Royal Caribbean but pretty much most of the main cruise line. TBH if any of your main dinner service ask you to "leave asap after meal", you can probably get that person fire right after that sailing.
@@tarotaro6933 at top floor buffet restaurant, not pre-booked facilities. They kept on announcing in boardcasting to ask you to leave if you have finished your meal.
@@fyc55 well buffet is always hit and miss. There will be rush hour and if youl choose to go during that 30mins -1 hour it is always a risk for extra wait. But since they have plenty of time for each meal serve, it is very easy to avoid the unnecessary wait as long as you choose to earlier or a bit later than the normal crowd. For me the only time that I found the buffet is too crowded is during embarkation, but if you choose the earliest embarkation time available, there shouldn't be any issue at all.
