Creator's Key Takeaways

The Icon is a massive ship, over 248 gross tons. There are 20 total decks, 13 complimentary dining options, 14 specialty dining options, and 11 of these dining options are only found on the icon class ships.

I'm not a singer, but I do enjoy watching everyone else sing and have a good time.

I actually got lucky and won some free art this time. Pretty cool.

I will tell you, it gets very crowded as you can see here. There are other spots on the ship that I prefer for lunch anyway that are a lot less congested.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Get to the dual lane pianos 45 minutes early to get a seat.

✓Visit the Ryan Bean for specialty coffee and ask about the secret menu.

✓Use the Wind Jammer buffet with caution: wash hands and use tongs to avoid getting sick.
