ComputerGeek Posted May 23, 2004 #2 Share Posted May 23, 2004 Were told by Sovereign Staff that she will be going into dry dock in November for her face lift. Does anyone know when she will be done and ready for service? How long is the procedure? I'd be willing to bet they will have their act together. The Sovereign crew is the best I've seen.

RM Posted May 24, 2004 #4 Share Posted May 24, 2004 When they did the Monarch they also had a lot of problems. I wouldn't book one of the first 2 or 3 sailings unless it was extremely cheap.

RM Posted May 24, 2004 #7 Share Posted May 24, 2004 It has been reported that the crew will remain on board to help with the redo. I love the ship too and can't wait to see how she turns out but I hope they don't destroy her beauty with too much glitz.....
