Any new info on the Icon class ships?


Recommended Posts

This class of ship was announced quite a while ago but I haven't seen any new news on it? No artist renderings or anything? Any idea when we might see more concrete info on this class of ship? I originally read it was supposed to be bigger than Quantum class but smaller than Oasis class, but then I heard something about it being even bigger than Oasis class. Any info would be cool as I'm curious about this new class?

Although we are still about 3yrs out, any speculation about a home port for Icon #1? Any reported strategy about placement of the Icon ships?

My guess is depending on the success of carnival panorama, royal will debut icon class on the west coast

Definitely wouldn’t be surprised to see one of the Icon class in Asia-Pacific as well, but I’d most likely say since it’s a brand new class this first one will be based in the Caribbean. For West Coast I’d say it would be more likely to be an older ship, perhaps Liberty once an Oasis Class gets based in Galveston.
