Dining room policy about ordering multiple entrees at the same time is likely an effort to reduce food waste onboard. Too many people having multiple delivered and wasting some of the food. This makes a lot of sense to me.
You mentioned you had a more detailed food review of the places you dined. I can't find that video. Can you give me a link to it? I'm particularly interested in the pier 7 food items... hits and misses. I'm disappointed there are not more specialty dining on this massive ship. The supper club is ridiculously priced in my opinion and I prefer restaurants with more choices on the menu. While Royals food is not terrible, I do think it's their weakest link. I wouldn't mind paying a little more for their cruises if the food was more elevated. We typically purchase UDP when we sail on oasis class ships. Our upcoming icon is no different. Did you mention there will be a second stage show production in the works?? So excited about this ship and you did a TERRIFIC job with your review in this video.
Thanks, for watching. The food review is here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MrQ3knnx9pk.html. The second theater show is Showband, and Aqua Theater has a second show debuting later this year, Pirates Vs. Mermaids. When is your Icon sailing?
It too big of a ship for me. Also, there are children on board. I prefer Viking as it’s adults only and the capacity is much smaller than a mega ship. Also the focus is educating you on the places you’ll visit. No zip lines, rope courses or water parks. They also show feature films and nature films plus lectures from experts on the locations, animals, geography, geology of the places you’ll visit. All the food areas are included with the exception of the Chefs Table which is a 15 person venue where the diners help the chef prepare the food. Wine and beer are included in the price. If you want spirits or higher class wines there is an up charge.
They are espresso martinis with baileys, which is lighter than the typical ones. Feel free to let us know if you have any other questions. Happy sailing.
I'm on Icon now. I don't think it's at full capacity yet, and every pool is packed and most whirlpools are full of children. This video is mainly showing empty spaces, but for us it is way too crowded and loud, and we're often wandering around looking for somewhere to relax- the only quieter, uncrowded spaces are inside.
DB another great review. Icon seems very cool. And I wish to sail on her, but I think I like the Oasis Class Boardwalk w/ Playmakers and Aqua Show in the rear. And the Solarium in the Front layout, better.
Thanks for watching. Honestly, having the Aqua Theater at the top in the front on Icon of the Seas was a welcomed change. But we can see your point. Overall, you can't go wrong with either class of ship. When is your next RCI cruise?
@@Eatsleepcruise1 never been on mega… just one to Bahamas. I’m sure there are cruises tailored to everyone’s fancy… I could care less about water slides etc… I’m more for the love boat life style… good food, meeting interesting people, classy entertainment…. Interesting ports of call….
Might be a good idea to get a professional commenter, I’m sure it would enhance the video, probably just me though as I only lasted the first couple of minutes. 🤪
Good video. It would be nice if a few of the influences would go on an actual Icon Cruise as a preview Is never a good example of an actual cruise. Also, Disney has the first swim up bar. Not this ship.
