It is sometime in 2011, early spring sounds about right.

Hope thi is correct, we are booked on her Canary Island cruise out of Southampton June 4th 2011, This cruise will be even better with a freshly refurbished/refit.:)

Just returned from a fantastic cruise on the Grand. She is having her refit in April 2011. However we didn't see much wrong with her as she was! However, I would love to see what she looks like after refit. Hope to see photos on CC.:)

Excellent jojo, they sometimes post photo's of Drydock Refits on The Princess Web Site which are very interesting shows a day by day account.

Glad you enjoyed your cruise.:)

I was told that by my travel agent, as we've booked for NYE 11/12. Hope you have fun.

Just had a look at the Princess boards and she's shown in drydock from 11th April till 5th May 2011 in Nassau.

We're on her on 15th June to the North Cape so we'll see whats been done but usually in a dry dock it'll be mostly exterior.

It'll be a full 75 million $ refit in addition to adding an International Cafe, Vines and new atrium. I was on her in July...and she was looking pretty good to me - even pre refit!!

So good...we have booked again for June 2011!!!

I would gladly return on the Grand...even if no refit.....so it's just a bonus that she is having one!
