I rather have a huge solarium with views like Wonder than a small Viking Crown. Well, I guess they could name it the “Viking Crown Solarium”…. It does look like a crown on top of the bridge.

Deck 5 & 6 areas by the small starboard window appears to have a lounge. The deck 6 area by the large port side window appears to have a lounge. Deck 7 & 8 area above the lounge is open to the lounge below creating an atrium. The Pearl is within that atrium, with the top of it poking up into deck 8 behind glass, closing it off from the open air Central Park. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raketoplan Posted October 11, 2022 #1656 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Icon of the Seas media event is set to happen 1 week from today in Miami! I hope they publicly confirm the October 18th date and release the last "Making an Icon" video very soon. 🤞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruising.person Posted October 11, 2022 #1657 Share Posted October 11, 2022 am I the only one who is sort of disappointed that the solarium is being merged with an entertainment venue? I am worried that they have compromised the relaxing atmosphere of the space with infrastructure for performances. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairsky84 Posted October 11, 2022 #1663 Share Posted October 11, 2022 It reminds me of the Crown & Anchor logo from the Sovereign-class ships. When Sovereign of the Seas launched in 1988, the expanded Viking Crown Lounge that circled the entire funnel required moving the logo to the decks below the funnel. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect RCI has learned that the Aqua Theater on the Oasis-class is a very inefficient use of extremely valuable open deck space. Think about it... the aft deck/pool space on Oasis-class is only utilized for a few hours on any cruise when the shows are performed. The rest of the time, it's a huge and under-utilized space. I think the Icon's Aqua Dome will solve this problem by making the Aqua Theater / Solarium a multi-use space that can be utilized all day and night even when the diving show is not happening. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was just on an oasis class ship and I completely agree with this. As an adult i found the boardwalk to be a completely useless area except for seeing the aquatheater show, I have no use for a merrry-go-round and johnny rockets is probably one of the worst food venues on the ship. I really hope they do more with the boardwalk area on icon. Edited October 11, 2022 by tdigi1919 Mispell 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida Fan Posted October 12, 2022 #1670 Share Posted October 12, 2022 If they sell cabins on the first transAtlantic, we're going. Two questions: 1. Will it be as smooth as a normal transAtlantic? 2. If I don't want direct sunlight, should I be on the starboard side or port side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
