NYE December 31, 2023

Personal choice. General consensus ranges from about $100pp to $100 per day, depending on how happy you are and the level of service.

@dodgestang or anyone else that has done this private session, I am assuming the photos are post process/edited right?

Symphony is due for dry dock in Spring 2023. Maybe they will make adjustments to her for NJ? Just another thought.

I just saved a bit over $1300 for 4 of us on a Canada/NE sailing for next August!

Feedback on her is pretty good. She's not new, she has been a genie for a while. I believe she was on SY for a while and now on OA.

It was. But all the TA holds expired yesterday and now there is some availability again.

This was just posted in another group:

Yeah, SC on Icon requires a $600pp deposit.... I think it will be a while before I try SC on Icon. I cannot justify the pricing for it. You should do the inaugural with us.

Update. I can now book shows for my Symphony 12/31/22 sailing. Has to be done in the cruise planner. App shows nothing.

There are others reporting on FB that they can do this for Wonder and Oasis in December. I checked for my December Symphony sailing and nothing.

I agree, a stairwell would be perfect. To be honest, it a hike to get anywhere from those loft suites on Anthem, but that unobstructed aft view is so worth it! I completely loved that suite, and I don’t even like Anthem that much. But I would take those grand lofts in the back any day!

+1 on this.

Do not take those corner lofts! @WAAAYTOOOcan tell you more about them but they are much smaller than the middle lofts. We had 10724 and loved it. I have heard mixed reviews about ones on Deck 8. Some are bothered by the noise and some are not. Guess it depends on how early you all go to bed. Here is a blog that @GregDand I did in this past summer. We had the two middle lofts on Deck 10. There are photos of the suites in the blog. https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/boards/index.php?/topic/33005-“the-starry-neighbor-neighbour-chronicles-pining-for-the-fjords”-–-anthem-of-the-seas-july-8th-15th-2022/

Yay! I am so glad that you decided to do it!

I also have no clue what the ports are lol

I knew you would say that! Lol

Super Iconic if two bots get to sail together!

We have only been one so far (Indy 2018). Yes, they still had Christmas decor up, the main party was in the promenade, there were smaller parties in other bars and lounges, and they had a special NYE themed menu in the MDR. We are doing another NYE sailing on Symphony this year and then booked for NYE next year on Odyssey. Can't wait!

I am a sucker for the swag lol

Hubby and I are in too!

Booked the inaugural! Our last inaugural was Oasis in 2009 and she was the biggest and brightest back then. Thought it was fitting that we do the Icon inaugural too.

I was able to book a cabin that holds 4 at 2am this morning with just Hubby and I on the reservation....

Yes, we had the one at the very front of the ship. That was my least favourite room in all the cruises I have been on. Motion was a huge factor and that room was so noisy every time the ship departed and docked.

Done. But I don't think you need us for this. I am pretty sure the site allows anyone to change their own titles. You just click and hold down on the title and it allows you to edit.
