That basic fare gets you a cozy interior cabin, all your meals in the main dining rooms, and access to most of the ship’s wild attractions. But let’s be honest: you’re not booking Icon of the Seas to stare at a windowless room. You want the balcony, maybe a suite, or—if you’re feeling fancy—the Ultimate Family Townhouse (yes, it’s a thing).
A balcony cabin for a UK traveler usually lands between £2,500 and £3,500 per person. Compare that to a week at a decent all-inclusive in Spain? That’s like paying for two holidays at once. But then again, you’re not just staying in Spain—you’re moving through the Caribbean, eating in eight different restaurants, and watching a Broadway-style show every night.
Why does the price jump so much for UK guests?
Here’s the kicker: you’ll need to factor in flights. The Icon sails from Miami, so a round-trip from London to Florida can add £400 to £800 per person, depending on the season. Plus, you might want a pre-cruise hotel (because you don’t want to miss the ship, right?). Suddenly, that £1,800 cabin becomes a £2,500 reality—and that’s without your cocktails or excursions.
But here’s the fun comparison: a week at Disney World for a family of four can easily hit £6,000. On Icon, you get the same “magic”—roller coasters, splash zones, endless entertainment—but you’re sleeping on a ship that moves. It’s a floating theme park with ocean views. Pretty cool, huh?
