The days of at-sea trampoline bungee jumping while wearing a VR headset are over. As of March 31, Royal Caribbean is eliminating the Sky Pad experience from all four ships on which it's currently found.
In a statement sent to TMR, the line said, "A key part of delivering memorable vacations is reviewing the experiences we offer on board and ashore on an ongoing basis. A recent evaluation of guest feedback and trends has informed our decision to discontinue the Sky Pad VR and bungee trampoline experience that’s on board four ships..."
According to the statement, the domed area under which Sky Pad was found will be transformed into a permanent venue hosting new complimentary experiences, such as dance classes, morning stretching and more.
In an email to advisors, the line asked: "Please review all marketing materials to ensure that the experience Sky Pad offers is updated prior to this date."
The four ships that had Sky Pad were Independence of the Seas, Mariner of the Seas, Spectrum of the Seas and Odyssey of the Seas.
