Probably won't hear anything for a while. Royal has tons of debt from not running any ships for 15 months. There was talk about Project Discovery not long ago. If I was to guess what's next, I would think we would hear something about that since 100k ton ships are cheaper to build than a 250k ton ship but we have to wait and see

Probably more Icon class ships. We have only heard about 3 because that is what is contracted to be built. Same thing happened with Oasis class when it was announced. Then came 4, 5, and 6. Royal need to "Test" the ship for profitability. They also want customer feedback and other research before they commit to a 4th one and beyond. $2 Billion per ship is a lot of money to spend. I would love to see a Project Discovery at around 100,000 tons that can sail from ports like Tampa and get into ports that the big ships can't fit in. Radiance and Vision class ships are almost up for their lifespan. It's a smart business move since they said Vision class ships don't break even until about 80% capacity

The Space Coast airport isn't even along the current tracks. It's like 5-10 miles away

Both are 3 night cruises from the same port (Port Canaveral) and both go to Nassau and their private islands. Major price difference

Screen shot of my upcoming cruise for CocoCay. Prices are higher than last time I checked. Beach Club was $199 and now it's $229. Wave Jet tour used to be $99. I'm pretty sure Thrill Waterpark went up as well

I used to wear a tuxedo 10 years ago because half the people in the dining room also had tuxedos on. But now the number of tuxedos on formal night, I can count on one hand. Now, I just wear a dress shirt and slacks and fit in with everyone else.

It's about 3 miles from terminal 1 to terminal 5. Uber/Lyft would be your best bet if Royal doesn't have a shuttle

This is why I like sailing with Royal Caribbean. When they make a mistake, they take care of the customer. This cruise was oversold so they are giving customers 100% refund of the Wonder of the Seas fare, as well as a $300 onboard credit to enjoy Explorer of the Seas https://www.cruisehive.com/worlds-largest-cruise-ship-oversold-for-spring-break/95664

I'm surprised Royal allowed her on the ship. She didn't get far once the cruise ended Woman accused of using stolen credit cards for cruise ship family adventure out of Port of Miami (local10.com)
