Lisa Bauer, Senior Vice President, Hotel Operations for Royal Caribbean, posted a progress update on Allure of the Seas construction. Here are the highlights.
Allure seems to be further along at this point in time than Oasis of the Seas was- The scaffolding is down in the Royal Promenade and tile is being added
- Carpet installed in most areas
- Rita’s Cantina, the Boardwalk Doghouse, and the Guess store are starting to "take shape"
- More stores also taking shape, but yet to be announced what they will be
- Royal Caribbean will be taking delivery of Allure of the Seas a few days earlier than planned
- Costumes for Dreamworks characters will require planning to find space for them all
We had several operational meetings with Captain Hernan Zini, who will be the Master on Allure, as well as the hotel start up team, lead by Raimund Gschaider. The team is very pleased with how the inspections are going, as well as the operational planning.
