Beyond Vertical Posted January 12, 2018 Report Posted January 12, 2018 Adventure's dry dock date starts as of tomorrow and will go until mid-Feb. I realize that they are just finishing up the last refurb (adding panoramic state rooms, Izumi, ect). What else does everyone hope to see out of a 30 day dry dock? I myself would like to see her get a fresh coat of paint. Simple yet does so much. Quote

KLA Posted February 6, 2018 Report Posted February 6, 2018 AHHH! I love it - I land in San Juan 2 weeks from Thursday, boarding two weeks from Saturday! Keep your fingers crossed the dry dock goes smoothly and I'll be able to share some pictures of the finished work! RestingBird, LetsTryThisPlace, Hutcherl and 1 other 4 Quote

HLWIser Posted February 6, 2018 Report Posted February 6, 2018 Hey everyone! I'm new to the Royal Caribbean blog, but not new to Royal Caribbean cruising. I'm about to go on my 12th RC cruise on Adventure on Feb 12- Feb 17th, the first cruise out of drydock. I'm really curious to see the state of the ship and if all repairs will be complete (is that just wishful thinking? lol). I do assume most larger things will be done, but they still might be fixing/ repairing some small things... I'm currently a Diamond Plus member (Diamond on my own, but with Diamond + status due to my parents having it before I turned 18).. I will be sailing with three people new to cruising which will be different for me since I'm usually with veterans.. I'll make sure to take pics and update on status of ship!

Welcome, and I look forward to seeing your pictures. These things are planned pretty well so I would imagine they should be completed as scheduled. Quote

I did get this from Royal Carribean. https://twitter.com/RoyalCaribbean/status/958185131461689345 Pretty generic, but gives a glimmer of hope. I will be in one of the Panoramic staterooms in December. Quote

We loved our panoramic room on Freedom, and would book another one on another ship in a heartbeat...well, maybe two heartbeats, I have to convince my wife it's a good idea to book another cruise.

I'm optimistic it will be complete, as scheduled, based on the fact previous refurbs seem to all go off as scheduled unless there is a noticeable incident (like a hurricane) impacting the work site.

I think that's our common link. We are a support group for our addiction in cruising. Hubby will never talk to me about cruises. He likes them, he just wants to know how much and what dates. He doesn't even ask the ship half the time. I think my kids can talk more about RC than him and they haven't even sailed RC yet. RestingBird and LetsTryThisPlace 1 1 Quote

Beyond Vertical Posted February 6, 2018 Author Report Posted February 6, 2018 Off topic question. In December I will be sailing out of Fort Lauderdale. The day we sail out there will be 7 ships in port, including ours. Harmony is also one of those ships. Should I allow for extra time at the port due to number of ships? Any Idea which Terminal Adventure will sail out of? Sunday2 December, 2018 Adventure Of The Seas (departing at 17:00) Regal Princess (departing at 16:00) Harmony Of The Seas (departing at 16:00) ms Koningsdam (arriving at 07:00) ms Nieuw Amsterdam (departing at 17:00) Carnival Conquest (departing at 16:00) Crystal Symphony (departing at 18:00) I am also excited with the number of ships and will be taking lots of pictures from the Helipad. I will try to Periscope it. Quote
twangster Posted February 6, 2018 Report Posted February 6, 2018 Port Everglades has an app that lists terminals. It's probably too far away to list your cruise now. I'm betting you'll use Terminal 29, but it could be a different terminal. I don't think you need extra time. Security does stop each car entering, looks at ID, looks into each trunk. I guess at peak times security at the port entrance could backup. Go right at 10am to beat the crowds arriving if you don't mind waiting in the terminal. Quote
ericreev Posted February 7, 2018 Report Posted February 7, 2018 I haven't posted in a while, but I will be sailing on adventure February 24th, the same cruise as KLAconQueso. It will be my 11th cruise with RC and I still get excited. Eric Reeves Quote
