As long as they still let me in to hit up the coffee machine in the morning, I will be ok not getting in for happy hour as I don't usually drink at it anyway, but I will miss some of the appetizers. If my next 2 cruises go as planned I will be back in after they are over unless more changes are on the horizon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I guess I heard correctly. Tonight's Maine lobster 🦞 was great. We will do it again on Day 6. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arancini before we cut into them. Maine lobster salad How was the lobster salad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is the house band in the Music Hall and what is the venue like? It was hard to tell from @FromSea2ShiningSea's pictures since she took them from the second floor. Is it more like a Quantum Music Hall? It seems that way from the picture but is a little hard to tell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a DJ, dance floor, and great lighting that goes to the wee hours? Maybe the Music Hall after hours? Royal used to have dedicated nightclubs but no longer. Curious what is used on ICON assuming they have such a venue. I would think a ship this size would. Yes, the music hall is used as the late night dance club 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would go nicely with the Wagyu filet. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your cabin looks great with some nice features. Size of a JS? Look forward to more photos, if you have time. Based on what I see on the mainland on the app you will have 2 lobster nights. Tonight and night 6. Enjoy🥰 The accessible balconies are the same size as the JS's 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonight is 11 - 12:30 That was what I was like on Odyssey and Ovation... The venue and the quality of the band make all the difference in the world. On Harmony in Dazzles in December I was there three times over two weeks. Which is low for me. Unless you are lucky enough to score the right seat it a really awkward venue with a lot of poor sight lines. The band was pretty average too. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last October, while on Voyager, Ken found an accessible OVB for us and our cruise friends got a JS. Our accessible and their JS was the same size. The one we are in on Icon now seems more open than Voyager. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the QUANTUM inaugural The Wild Boys played in the Music Hall. Absolutely amazing and all 80’s. They would have been awesome on ICON. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same but different is the how I view it. One can see the influence Oasis class had on the design as far as Central Park and Surfside are concerned. The promenade has Odyssey written all over it from one end to the other. The Pearl and pool decks are all new and different than anything we have seen. 8 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maudde Posted January 29 #517 Share Posted January 29 Regarding the Crown Lounge… If I understand correctly, there is no longer a diamond lounge and only D+ and P are allowed in during happy hour, but are diamonds still allowed in at other times (mornings for coffees)? Also has anyone experienced a chefs table or have seen one offered? Thank you and enjoy your cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joand452 Posted January 29 #518 Share Posted January 29 Finally caught up! Hoping to sail on this ship—eventually! Maybe next year. Thank you for the OVB accessible cabin video and photos. My husband uses a rental scooter (from Special Needs at Sea) to get around the ship, but not in the cabin. Is the fridge really as low as shown in the video? We both have balance issues, so bending over that far to access water, etc., is not going to work for us. Maybe a medical fridge would be placed on the vanity/desk? I may have to bring my “grabby” stick! Y’all have fun! Have a Caribbean Mule or Margarita for me! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharon just went over, clicked a couple pics and measured. The fridge is about on the floor. The handle on the top right is 20 inches off the floor. Notice the slant in the floor. The floor lifts as it heads to the balcony to make it easy to get in and out. On another thread someone showed that you can ride your wheelchair out. I haven't tried it ..... yet. The upper shelf is 10 inches from the floor. The bottom shelf is 6 inches from the floor. I thought about getting a medical fridge to keep my Boost colder. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To add to my previous post the Aquadome is a combination of the Solarium and Aqua Theater. With the Bistro being replaced with Aquadome Market Place. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an hour and 45 minutes long so it was a little too long for me, but worth it. Weren't supposed to take any pictures, but I'm sure they will pop up out there. I saw people taking videos and pictures. When the tornado came by, there was a very strong breeze that swept over the audience. It made my straw move in my pina colada drink. Also, when it snowed, snow aka suds came down on us and quiet a bit. I was going to take a picture of Mike with it all over his head, but he wiped it off before I could get my phone out. We were there too! We also thought it was good and agree it was a little to long. Can't believe people were taking pics. Well I did take one at the beginning showing Dorothy on here cell phone. 😆 Listening to the storm warnings. Oh and after Toto was taken. And then decides to run away. And decides to go home and the storm hits! 14 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
