    The Icon OTS is now the new mother of all the ugliest ships ever built. This ship is just a mess and a quagmire of opposing lines, bulges and appendages. If RCL think their main market are 5 year old's then they may just have got away with it, but I can assure them that a whole cashed up gaggle of near retirees or retirees would not go near this ship under any circumstances. Another example of a major company completely missing it's target market. Should have been called the Eyesore of the Seas.

    The lack of taste prodly displayed by so many here in the comment section by calling this thing "beautiful" is concerning to say the least. This ship (if i can even call it that) has not just ugly design. It has no aesthetic design at all. It's designed in a purley utilitarian way where nothing has a coherent aesthetics. To much is going on and everything is just added somehow and somewhere on top of something else without giving a second thought about how it will blend with its surroundings. Look at the dome for example: it doesn't fit or blend in with the rest of the ship. It looks like its separate thing that doesn't belong there.
    This ship is the ultimate dystopian and consummarism nightmare. You just have to take one look at this giant floating commercial construct and you immediately know what kind of costumers this is supposed to attract: Fat Karens with their our of control kids that need to be put in an overstimulating environment like this ship because TikTok has reduced their attention span down to 10 seconds.
