Canadian Cruiser98 Posted December 31, 2015 #1 Share Posted December 31, 2015 I have heard that Adventure of the Seas will be revitalized in 2016, but can't seem to find any information about what that will entail. Does anybody know what will be added during this refurbishment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted December 31, 2015 #2 Share Posted December 31, 2015 (edited) I have heard that Adventure of the Seas will be revitalized in 2016, but can't seem to find any information about what that will entail. Does anybody know what will be added during this refurbishment? Royal has not revealed details of the refurbishment. However, I would expect it to be very similar to what has been done to the sister ships Voyager and Explorer. This is Explorer's web page, see the areas with "New" next to them: http://www.royalcaribbean.com/findacruise/ships/class/ship/home.do?shipClassCode=VY&shipCode=EX&br=R Note that Adventure already has Giovanni's Table, pervasive WiFi, and the pool big screen.

redlobster Posted January 1, 2016 #3 Share Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) We will be on Adventure beginning January 9th and have been told it does not have pervasive wifi. I hope you are correct. Edited January 1, 2016 by redlobster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted January 1, 2016 #4 Share Posted January 1, 2016 We will be on Adventure beginning January 9th and have been told it does not have pervasive wifi. I hope you are correct. It's possible I got Jewel and Adventure mixed up. Someone had posted about seeing crewmembers stringing network cable through the corridors for pervasive WiFi. I know it was a ship that had an upcoming dry dock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crisndeefromde Posted January 1, 2016 #6 Share Posted January 1, 2016 According to this it has it. http://www.royalcaribbean.com/findacruise/ships/class/ship/home.do?shipClassCode=VY&shipCode=AD&br=R Its very slow. We were on in February 2015...while its available through out the ship now its no where close to the Voom that is being rolled out. Hoping it gets that during this dry dock.

OfTheSeasCruiser Posted January 1, 2016 #7 Share Posted January 1, 2016 I know that no one knows for sure, but will Adventure have her sports bar replaced? With a Vintages? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polymedia Posted January 2, 2016 #9 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Just did the Dec 5 cruise on Adventure. The wi-fi is pervasive as I had no trouble connecting anywhere on the ship. That said, it's about 320 baud dial-up speed (if you remember that) so it's soooo slow. I do hope the upgrade to Voom during the refurb, as the performance of that system is awesome.

queenschick9b Posted January 6, 2016 #10 Share Posted January 6, 2016 I keep seeing the 2016 dry dock mentioned, but I wanted to know when it was taking place. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted January 6, 2016 #11 Share Posted January 6, 2016 I keep seeing the 2016 dry dock mentioned, but I wanted to know when it was taking place. Thanks! Looking at the itinerary, there is a break between Oct 16 and Nov 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queenschick9b Posted January 6, 2016 #12 Share Posted January 6, 2016 I go in July, so I guess I will not get the new places. I've been on AOS 2x before and love it, so I'm still excited. Plus, it is the once cruise itinerary I've done where I feel I am rarely on the ship anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newcruiser80 Posted January 9, 2016 #14 Share Posted January 9, 2016 She will probably get those rocks they're calling beds, too. Glad, in a way, we're sailing on her before "revitalization." Last Royal for us for awhile - completely transferred all existing reservations to NCL. Had a great time on them... and VERY comfy beds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beshears Posted January 9, 2016 #15 Share Posted January 9, 2016 I haven't read all the postings here, but did one of you say their beds were like ROCKS? Oh my, I am so used to Carnival beds, I hope not. I just booked Adventure a couple days ago, and we will be cruising the first part of April. Guess I'll find out.

Do they at least still offer those mattress toppers on request? Also, with all the talk I've been seeing here on Cruise Critic about the new beds being terrible, one would think that Royal would take notice and adjust things. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
