    I'm going on a 16 day Trans-Panama Carnival Cruise. You would need a " go fund me page " to purchase a 16 day Cheers Package. My goodness, $1,131.86. I was floored. ( and not because i had been drinking.)

    • @JJCruise

      It’s been awhile since we’ve bought a drink package on Royal Caribbean. It is pricey and especially when we work from ships we don’t drink as much.

    We also noticed that some of the blue and green chairs around Category 6 had a storage bin built into the back of them... I guess so you can stash some stuff while enjoying the slides and not worry about the wind blowing it around. Really convenient!

    Hey Jared and Jordan ! We just finished our cruise on the Ascent & it was amazing. I can tell you Celebrity has heard us about the food & have taken action. The food in the main dining was amazing & so were the specialty restaurants. Only had a few meals in the Oceanview but was impressed by all the offerings. My cruise tip is I make the premium drink package less painful by booking my cruise with the classic package & then upgrade later. It makes me think I'm not paying so much for booze!!!!!

    Thank you for the fabulous video! Not sure when we will sail on the Icon but I am happy about the "sleep" button (shhh, we won't tell my wife!) and all the outlets on the ship and in the cabin. Late-night hot tubs and snacking are the BEST! We are loyal to Royal but as you know each ship can have its good and not so good and have some differences from ship to ship. We just go with the flow!

I know, I can’t believe I said that.😂 But I will patiently wait until you do a group cruise on her, because that’s what will make it a truly unique experience. Thanks for all the tips and tricks!👍🏻

    Thank you for the tips. I am loyal to Royal but don’t want to go on a ship geared toward families with children. While looking at the tour of the ship I did notice many areas for children. Did you find many children on the ship?

    • @JJCruise
      @JJCruise  Před 4 měsíci +1

      There were 400 kids onboard and we rarely saw them. Royal did a great job separating the areas out for families versus adults.
      That said, this could change for Spring Break and other high times where kids sometimes outnumber adults on cruise ships. 😅

      Thanks for your feedback. With this being the World’s Largest Cruise Ship and a record-breaking new ship across the cruise industry, we believe she deserves all of the content we’ve made and more.
      We know not everyone can sail on Icon of the Seas, but the amount of interest this ship holds worldwide is much greater than the average cruise ship.
