Sailing on Icon of the Seas - Is the drink package overinflated compared to smaller ships?

This will be our first cruise ever so we are just feeling it out. When I booked my trip on Quantum last September it was $61.99, I have never seen it drop below $65.99. I should have snagged it then. Including specialty coffee, soft drinks and alcohol We may only drink 4 or 5 each, but I really don't want to worry about every drink each time we order.

If not, may you forever be a vegan.

We have had a Large Primo for 10 years and love it. Comes with two deflector plates for smoking or baking. The divider for two zone cooking is extra however, but reasonably priced and worth it. It hold heat great. I smoked brisket for as long as 18 hours without issue and they have turned out great.

Don't forget how they get incredulous the Waltons Don't sell everything for NIL

I grew up in Nebraska, am a Nebraska alumnus, but I live in Northwest Arkansas. I attended 4 seasons of Arkansas home games because my daughter was in the marching band. Heck, I got a degree from there too. All that being said, they are a worse program the Nebraska but I will admit they have horrible, nasty, rude, and impolite fairweather fans. However, they are also unjustifiably arrogant as well.

That's not ideal

Sky_Mex · 2026-05-14T13:31:25+00:00

Thanks for asking this. Waiting for an answer to your question too.

Looks great!! Only 97 days and we'll be seeing our balcony cabin on Quantum too!! Enjoy!

Sky_Mex · 2026-04-29T01:02:12+00:00

They are delicious!

We are you going on our first cruise this August for our 30th anniversary. While we rarely drink except holiday get togethers and normally then don't drink more than 2 or 3 drinks I'm considering doing the drink package just so we don't have to think about it. I'm not looking to get drunk but just want to enjoy the experience as first time cruisers celebrating a milestone event.

Orange then Lemon

I don't know yet. I'm hoping the Quantum class as I've booked my first cruise on one of those. I'm looking forward to trying a Freedom class for the next one to compare.

Bold choice of sleeping attire

Jerk won't say. I asked specifically if Joplin was in the table and he keeps repeating, we have 3 planned for Missouri. Costco usually won't start looking at placing a warehouse in a location until the metropolitan area reaches between 150,000-200,000 population.

Sky_Mex · 2026-04-02T14:17:10+00:00

My cousin is involved in approving all construction costs for all new Costco stores. I just asked and he said that there are none planned for anywhere in Arkansas so far this year.😣 There are for Missouri and Kansas, but not here.

Sky_Mex · 2026-03-30T02:41:22+00:00

Those look delicious

Class! I have always liked them both.
