Why the UK’s favourite ship is about to get a whole lot better?

I am counting down to 15^th May and the launch of ‘INDY’ after her little make over….. When I say little, I actually mean, multi-million Dollar makeover…

I will be on the ship for her 2 night preview sailing from Southampton. Over the past few days I have been looking at the promo videos for the launch and there is going to be too much to see and do… Especially in just 3 days.. But I will be doing my best to slip slide, eat, drink and make merriment in the name of quality control.

I am not sure which of the newest features will float my boat the most.

Escape Room – Sometimes when you’re on holiday, you can feel your mind slowing down, that’s if you managed to pack your brain at all… This is great, and a sign of an amazing cruise, but there’s no harm in getting your brain to pick up speed and start getting back to reality. This is where the brand-new Escape Room comes in! Complete the puzzles to try to make it out on time. Think you can do it?

Izumi – Don’t miss Izumi, the exotic Asian-inspired dining experience where chefs cook tableside, real Teppanyaki.

Laser Tag – As if sailing the seas, visiting new and incredible destinations wasn’t enough, Royal Caribbean have just gone and added Laser Tag! Duck, dive, and zap your way to victory – will you be the ship’s champion?

Panoramic Staterooms – Get ready to be floored by wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling ocean views in the stunning new Panoramic Ocean View staterooms. Soak up the magnificent feeling of standing on the bridge of the ship and watch the sunset over the coastline, all from the privacy of your own amazing room.

Splashaway Bay – Little cruisers and not so little cruisers will find gallons of fun at the all-new, bigger and better aqua park, Splashaway Bay.

Trampoline Park – Never before seen at sea, we are so excited for our trampoline park to be opened. Practice your somersaults and split jumps to really impress your fellow guests.

Waterslides – We all know that one of the most exciting activities to take part in on ships, are the pools. Now, you can make your Independence cruise holiday even more wild, with the new waterslides! These just have to be tested…

I will be posting my findings when I return. But for now I can assure you that I will be sampling the food and beverage. Testing out the newest additions and reporting back on all of my discoveries. If you have any questions about Royal Caribbean just let me know.
