PG Cruiser Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 I couldn't find any definitive answer to this question. Lots of conflicting information. Flyers with several versions with differing dates. Does someone know the (correct) answer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is that date the 1st US sailings after ones in the UK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats a shame for anyone who wanted to cruise on Icon, but its life and things change, just have to accept it. Being honest just read Matts article on Icon and its not for me! Love anything water related including water parks but i just look at the photos and think WTF is that!! WAAAYTOOO and Big Tule 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a fan of water activities myself. But I do enjoy watching people having fun at the pools, slides, and other water features.

My love of water is that bad that i was on a small boat in Perth Australia when someone spotted a Dolphin, my wife went to take a photo of it and got a shot of me instead diving into the water to swim with the Dolphin. Must admit didn't stay in the water long...well not after someone said " hope there's no sharks as well" WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were so many times I've been mistaken for a security officer, especially with my spoof crew shirts and Royal cap, just because my recreation of choice is making rounds of the pool decks and the promenade. asquared17 and FionaMG 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenCP Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 Looks like Dec. 16, 2023 is the first sailing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see that there, but the official release said January, so who knows. Doing the first revenue sailing over the holidays seems like a *terrible* idea, IMO.

CGTLH Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 For deployment information, I'd trust what ever is the most up-to-date flyer from here: http://creative.rccl.com/Sales/Royal/Icon/Icon_Deployment_Flyer.pdf With that said, it was the above link that had originally posted the infamous December 16th flyer.

SebagoSue Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 I see December 21, 2024 as a holiday sailing, but I don’t see December 28, 2024 anywhere. Am I missing it? I didn’t see it on the earlier incorrect deployment schedule either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
