Key Moments

Editorial Summary

Matt from Royal Caribbean Blog conducts a live walkthrough of the Icon of the Seas during a media day in Miami. He explores several key neighborhoods, including the Royal Promenade, Surfside, Central Park, the Aquadome, and Thrill Island. Throughout the tour, he notes that while many venues appear nearly complete, the ship is still undergoing finishing touches ahead of its inaugural sailing on January 27th. The creator highlights specific features such as the new Dueling Pianos concept, the destination elevators that require floor selection before entering, and the various dining options like the sushi venue in Central Park and the food hall in the Aquadome. He also examines the family oriented Surfside area and the water park features at Thrill Island. The video concludes with a look at the Hideaway pool area and the infinity pool, with the creator noting his intention to return for a preview sailing to provide more detailed content.
