Lloyd, where is the shipyard located in Gdansk.  Would it be visable from Voyager who will be stopping there as a replacement for  St. Petersburg.

Don't think we dock there anyway. Gdynia I believe

Just need to check the start or end time.  Hopefully I have enough time to allow for the 30 minute drive

I am curious about some the ship's other bits and pieces... the bridge, the funnel, the life boats.

The edge of that upper deck on the Icon of the Seas is quite wavy. 🌊

I should point out that the edge of that upper deck on the Icon of the Seas' port side is wavy  compared to the opposite, starboard side. Asymmetry rules.

The answer has not changed since the last time you asked.

The train is really quick.

I see the makings of a large atrium window.

Reminiscent of the Nordic Empress aka Empress of the Seas.

Great image. I'm still amazed at how much wider the superstructure (balcony decks) are from the hull (lower decks). The same thing is true of Oasis-class, but this looks much wider. That overhang is HUGE. And unlike Oasis-class, it doesn't look like the lifeboats will hang under the main deck. There are windows there but no lifeboat loading stations or equipment. I can only assume the lifeboats will be above the promenade deck. That is going to make Icon a very odd looking ship with an extremely wide top and much more narrow hull at the waterline.

Like on Celebrity Edge Class ships and somewhat on Spectrum OTS forward Suite Decks.

Likely referring to forward suite decks.

Yeap, good thought as they have on Edge Class, Spectrum, and then decided to put those suites on Oasis forward bridge wings. 

I am sure given what Norwegian and MSC have done with their special suite areas, Royal will be totally reimagining theirs on Icon.

[Panda Monium]

Speaking of don't want...

I hope the Icon has a Aqua Dome (or whatever it's being called) somewhat like that of Wonder of the Seas. 

 

 

A flat dome...

 

And not a rounded dome...

For a second I thought you found Icon’s Sphere dome pocking Out from Central Park 😀
