Hmmm....I was really looking forward to testing being done away with, all together, by Halloween weekend.......don't look like that's going to happen.

When will the "Icon ots Roll Call" go up?

LoL...although Celebrity is under the RIG umbrella, the two brands have vastly different personality. The Atmosphere & Environment on Celebrity is not the same Vibe that Royal have. Royal is its own Brand in itself...and they not only are innovating; but, ahead of the curve looking forward. So, I certainly can see, with new younger, more modern thinking leadership, replacing Fain a slight change in approach, geared toward what I'm suggesting...as well as, what JasonOasis & JohnK5404 theorize, as a possible train of thought.

Reasons why I wish Royal would consider building a smaller version of the Oasis Class w/o the water slides, dry slide, & Aqua Theater. Just a version of CP & BW(with an infinity pool in the back)... capable of docking at any number of ports & trans versing the Canal.

If it was as, you convey... I don't know why Royal don't just do away with testing all together... what's the holdup?

It's a 360 Imax Perception Theater

At some point, Royal is going to have to cut ties & bring something new, more entertaining, and modern.

eh.....it's alright

IC...well that's expected that the PA would try to generate capital. Thanks for the info...it make sense now; thought Lyft just had exclusive rights or something.

What was the issue the Port Authority had with Uber?

Looks like a Coco Cay Oasis Lagoon style pool....mini version

With the Refreshment Package, do one still have to "eat at" Johnny Rockers to get a shake with the Package? In other words, one can't just go get a shake with the Refreshment Package without dining in?

I've suggested the Blaster should have been put on Oasis & Allure (whenever it's Amped). Also, I hate they removed the kids pool from Oasis, when it was Amped... the pool should had remained, when Royal Amped the area vs sacrificing a percentage of the original space(landscape) for loungers, reducing the overall size of the area. Kids want to be "in water", think it was 30inches deep; as well as, treading in 2inches of water while getting dumped on. The kid's pool was regular populated, vs now reduced "traffic & use" over a period of time. And also, gotta get it off my chest again, although I've said this many times before, I wish when Oasis got Amped, they would have put in a cascade pool in the Solarium, much like what's on the Quantum Class Ships. Hopefully, these things make the cut for Icon... as well as, a Lazy River, which could be engineered done, on Oasis Class Ships, w/o encroaching on much of the ship landscape (pump & filter included). Anyway, that's my "Rant & Wish"

Smoking really needs to be in a designated outdoor area, if not outright done away with.

Hmmm....debating whether to cancel a cruise because they insist on testing, when you book the cruise, where as testing is required. Interesting....

Now things are really trending toward some sense of normalcy...I wonder when "Amplication" will resume? Also, any ideas on the Utopia Class?

Which, I feel will continue to be the case; because, the science says vaccinated persons are leading candidates of spreading the virus, and RCG, stated, the staff will continue to be fully vaxxed & boosted... not to mentioned the 80+ percent passengers. Cruise lines would serve themselves better, to forgo it all together, like most of society.

Watch what subsequently happens weeks after the Olympics....

Yeah......protocols tend to never go away & they all will opt-in; pre-covid cruising is done forever. <smh>

Like policy, once standard behavior protocols are in place, they tend to never go away. So, although covid hysteria is fading away, like most other infectious outbreaks; something new will take its place, to keep the "new normal" going....and I'm not talking about another variant.

Really, you can't go wrong with any view. 270° put the cruisers view closer to the water; neither less, can't go wrong with either one.

This would be my guess...with dual use, for potential future overnight guess accommodations

A Lazy River would be a great addition...really, at all of RCG private destinations.

I think they were advised what potentially would happen & how it could effect their record

Hmmm.....never thought about that
