Is Disney Spirit the name of one of the new cruise ships being built for DCL? I haven't seen that name be mentioned before but that sounds like a likely name for one of the new ships.
I was optimistic about the new lobby, as open lobby's when done right can be great for a resort but this just makes the area look dead. The lobby is supposed to be a lively area, now it looks like a back corner converted to some sitting space as an afterthought.
IIRC The Iranian government planned to fund the construction of the resort but that plan got thrown out the window with the Revolution.
