simmo Posted October 12, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I was wondering if anybody has any ideas as to why there are no advertised sailings on the Silhouette in June 2017. Could she be heading for a refurbishment? Or maybe they are just sold out? We are heading off on a Baltic cruise on her in July 2017 (very exciting!) and it would be great if the ship had just had a refurb! Thanks :) Simmo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pushka Posted October 12, 2016 #2 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Probably a charter. I don't think I want the first cruise after a refurb - we are on the 6 July departure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barneyboy Posted October 12, 2016 #3 Share Posted October 12, 2016 We are on the 29 June. It will be interesting to find out if it is a charter or refurb Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
need2cruisesoon Posted November 6, 2016 #4 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Any news on the Silhouette June 2017? Only one cruise slated 6/29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pushka Posted November 6, 2016 #5 Share Posted November 6, 2016 We were the cruise before the charter on Equinox in 2015. The ship booking for a month disappeared from all websites until the charter selected the time they wanted and then bookings around those weeks started appearing again. Subsequently our cruise was poorly advertised and some great bargains were released closer to sail date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pushka Posted November 9, 2016 #9 Share Posted November 9, 2016 What is a charter? I was hoping a refurb was coming up? It is when an organisation charters the complete ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saab4444 Posted November 9, 2016 #10 Share Posted November 9, 2016 She is doing 7 day cruises from Stockholm all of June 2017 but most are charters and only the one at the end of June is bookable via Celebrity. A refurb is not required, she is fine! Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it is safe to go ahead now. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRHeel94 Posted January 3, 2017 #14 Share Posted January 3, 2017 We are looking at that June 29th sailing, but I just noticed there's only one day in St. Pete (and two in Stockholm)? Is that right? Reading other reviews sounds like one day is not enough. Did anyone have concerns about that. All the other options we're looking have flaws though. We really want to try Celbrity.

ShortTimer Posted January 5, 2017 #16 Share Posted January 5, 2017 It's actually chartered by State Farm for most of June. I've cruised on just about every other line but this will be my first experience with Celebrity. I hear good things and am looking forward to it.

Olivares Posted May 24, 2017 #17 Share Posted May 24, 2017 What is a charter? I was hoping a refurb was coming up? No refurb at all. State Farm Insurance has chartered the Celebrity Silhouette the whole month of June 2017 to reward top sellers and their families with 7 day-cruise in the Baltic Sea. They have also chartered planes to fly these groups to Stockholm. I have family going with the 22 June group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
