Are they letting people board yet?  I hope it's easy to find an elevator  

If you have been here before then yes it is. They are directly across from the parking lot elevators

I really feel like Charlie with my Golden Ticket in hand along with 5500 other ticket winners.

So excited for everyone sailing on Icon in a few hours and wishing you all a fabulous cruise!  Thinking especially of my Dani/Bella friends, @Ourusualbeach Ken,@ReneeFLL Renee and Mike @FromSea2ShiningSea Helen and Marty @Ozark_Kid  John and Sharon.  Enjoy every moment with smooth sails and sunny skies.

Almost at port!

 

Maybe.  😆 

I heard there was a marathon run this morning.

 Looks like some excited cruisers eager to board.  Sailing along with you!  Have a great time!   Haven’t pulled the trigger on Icon yet but find myself pricing it out often!

Chris Wong just posted a video of when he joined the Icon crew in Cadiz, Spain a few weeks ago.  In the video, they're still doing a lot of last-minute work on the ship.  You can see many of the different areas of the ship, including a few crew only areas.  Makes for a good tease before seeing the finished product this week.

I think you mean FEASTING in WJ.  😄

Could someone on board please clarify if The Hideaway In-Pool Daybed and Casitas are adult only.

When booked it said guest under 18 would be provided cocktails, now I am reading it is adult only.

Thank you.
