It's an unfortunate sign of the times that I glanced at the image and immediately wondered why they had a large COVID 19 area 🙂

Good to see they've learnt from that particular mistake with Quantum class and the loft suites / concierge lounge!

And what's the betting on those cabins/suites not actually having easy access to that area? I wouldn't be surprised if you'd need to walk a third of the way back up the ship to go down stairs and then back to the aft again 😄

I am surprised they've teased with this - as an area it looks awful. I could have bought into a quiet infinity pool to relax and enjoy the aft view, but with the kids play area in the mix it's not anywhere I'd want to relax. And the view just won't be of interest to the kids. Plus the whole space looks oddly crowded even without people. And if those are suites to either side, enjoy the screaming and splashing noises all day!

Just back from a trip on Anthem and our cruise director Joff when asked about Icon said it wasn't doing any trips in the UK and was heading straight out to the US. With the rather tight timing I am starting to think fee paying passenger trips from the UK are going to be unlikely (except maybe for the TA). Perhaps it'll just be a trade event trip or two.
