When Royal Caribbean's Icon of the Seas makes its debut in January 2024, it's expected to set a new benchmark in family-friendly cruising.
It'll have the largest waterpark at sea with some heart-stopping bells and whistles, including the Pressure Drop - the first free-fall slide at sea; and a "neighbourhood" called Surfside just for families, with an aquapark for kids.
And if that's not enough, there will be more than 20 ways to refuel on the ship - from light sandwiches at GNGR and quirky teriyaki ice-cream at Izumi in the Park to New York-style fine-dining with wagyu and caviar at Empire Supper Club. Seven-day Miami-to-Miami Eastern and Western Caribbean itineraries are now on sale.
And in further news, Royal Caribbean is offering one of the biggest deals of the year on Quantum of the Seas, Ovation of the Seas and Brilliance of the Seas sailings with up to $600 in instant savings alongside 40 per cent off.
This limited-time deal applies to select 6-11-night sailings to Queensland, New Zealand and the South Pacific, available now until 11:59pm (AEST) on Tuesday June 6, 2023. royalcaribbean.com
