Key Moments

Editorial Summary

The creators document their experience sailing on the Star of the Seas, noting that the ship serves as a carbon copy of the Icon of the Seas. The video follows their first day on board, including a visit to the Windjammer for lunch and a tour of their ocean view balcony stateroom. They highlight the convenience of knowing the ship layout from their previous cruise. Much of the footage focuses on dining experiences, specifically a Chicago-themed supper club called the Lincoln Park Supper Club, where they participate in a multi-course meal paired with various cocktails. The group discusses the intensity of the drink pairings and their subsequent state the following morning. The vlog also covers a visit to CocoCay, time spent at the casino to reach a specific points goal, and a final dinner at Giovani's. The creators conclude by celebrating reaching their casino point target while staying under budget and express satisfaction with their week at sea.

Creator's Key Takeaways

We have made it on Icon 2.0. So yeah, fam. We say this is literally the carbon copy of the icon.

The verdict is if you are not a real drinker, do not go here.

We learned 400 points is supposed to give us a free cruise. So, we going we going to get these 400 the rest of these points to get to 400 before we get off here tonight.

A time was had at perfect day at Coco K with our own personal tram.

Put all your stuff away on the first day to stay organized for the rest of your cruise.
