Creator's Key Takeaways

Royal Caribbean's icon of the Seas as of today is the largest the newest and the most expensive cruise ship in the world and we are on board for her maiden voyage

it's not often that not just the biggest ship comes out but something that is completely different something that breaks paradigms

the Wind Jammer on the ship kind of makes me think of Wonder of the Seas and that it's a big circle and there's always seating and it's quieter all the way toward the back which is nice

the performance was incredible uh it is very intense in terms of lights and music great music

Creator's Tips & Advice

Screenshot your set sail pass in the app before boarding
