Should we wait a year until after AOS Refitr/Refurb March 2014? I need your input prove me right or wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should we wait a year until after AOS Refitr/Refurb March 2014? I need your input prove me right or wrong. We were on Adventure about a year ago and she was in fine shape. I would not hesitate to sail on her again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hummy0605 Posted April 7, 2013 #5 Share Posted April 7, 2013 We were on her last week and she's lovely - they kept touching paint up here and there every day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteukmcr Posted April 7, 2013 #6 Share Posted April 7, 2013 (edited) All depends if you would like to experience Adventure as she is now before revitalization (and as people say in very good condition) or wait until she perhaps gets the additional features as given to one of her sister Voyager ship Mariner. Previous 'flyers' (around March 2012) suggested that she would get the following as part of her revitalization. Outdoor movie screen Updated Vintages Wine Bar (she doesn't have a Vintages at present, they are only on Mariner & Navigator in the Voyager class) Diamond Club Park Cafe Chefs Table Giovanni's Table Digital Signage Pervasive WiFi Flat screen TVs Nursery However, recent flyers only say that for Adventure and her remaining Voyager sisters (Navigator, Voyager & Explorer) that details are coming soon, so it's hard to tell exactly (if anything) what she will get during dry dock in 2014. http://www.creative.rccl.com/Sales/Royal/General_Info/Flyers/12028421_Revit_QuickReference_Guide.pdf We're interested too as we're booked on her TA to the UK after dry dock.

nelblu Posted April 7, 2013 #7 Share Posted April 7, 2013 We were on the AOS this past Feb. and had a ball. My only criticism is that we enjoy one night at a specialty restaurant and had a difficult time getting reservations to Portofino as it is the only specialty restaurant at this time.

bouhunter Posted April 7, 2013 #9 Share Posted April 7, 2013 We were on Adventure a year ago. Public areas were in great shape. Our room was showing definite wear (scuff's/scratches all over the furniture, drawers, etc), carpet well worn. We had a great cruise but the room definitely needed work.

shipfriend_max Posted October 5, 2014 #10 Share Posted October 5, 2014 OK, this topic is somewhat old, but maybe now there are updated information... Any guesses whether Advenrure otS will get the same upgrades as Navigator, Voyager, and Explorer (Flow Rider, new staterooms and restaurants)?? Thanks in advice... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advice... :) They did a "mini-refurb" early this year. Unfortunately, it didn't get much the cool stuff the NV and others got. Very sad!!! Hopefully the 2016 refurb will do more!

shipfriend_max Posted October 5, 2014 #13 Share Posted October 5, 2014 OK, thank you so far... Is it sure that she will be dry-docked in 2016? I hope prior to her possible TA/Europe-season... Yes, in 2014 she got some new staff like a movie screen on the pooldeck, Giovannis table and the dgital way-finders... but sadly not as much as Navigator and Voyager...

shipfriend_max Posted October 8, 2014 #20 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Ok, thank you. But I would be wondering, if she didn't get the FlowRider - Navigator, Voyager and Explorer have or get it as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
