A&Jfamily Posted February 7, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Can anyone confirm that the FEMA contract is over and she went into dry dock a few days ago as scheduled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spencercoop Posted February 7, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Yes. I saw a video of the cruise director showing the progress on the improvements they are making. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IHEARTSUP14 Posted February 7, 2018 #4 Share Posted February 7, 2018 I am traveling on the Fascination this spring - would love to see some pictures or videos of the dry dock. Is there a link to the cruise directors feed?? Thanks! Yes. I saw a video of the cruise director showing the progress on the improvements they are making.

salty dingo Posted February 10, 2018 #8 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Unfortunately, the Fascination webcams are not operating now. I did watch them as she entered the drydock. Not much to see on the aft webcam then, just a lot of cranes and boxes on deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joebucks Posted February 11, 2018 #11 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Soo excited to go on the ship. Glad to see it getting upgrades. Does anyone know if all of the palm trees are going, or just some? I love the look of them by the pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the look of them by the pool. In CD Marcelo's facebook page, it shows a video of the palm trees being taken down and they would be trashed. He did not say they would be replaced. Hopefully they will be replaced. It did give the deck a tropical feel. Go to the Marcelo Marshmello Facebook page to check out all of the Fascination videos.

salty dingo Posted February 12, 2018 #15 Share Posted February 12, 2018 ...the palm trees being taken down and they would be trashed. I'm not a huge fan of fake palm trees, so I'm good with that. It always seemed a bit cheesy somehow to have them around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgraham56 Posted February 14, 2018 #16 Share Posted February 14, 2018 If you do a search, you can find Carnival's page detailing the updates. It is basically the 2.0 upgrades. I didn't know about this before booking. Now I'm glad. ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salty dingo Posted February 14, 2018 #17 Share Posted February 14, 2018 The new burger and taco joints will be a welcome addition to the lido. There will likely be some new carpets and general cleaning and polishing. They will fix or replace stuff that was broken but would have taken too long to repair during the normal cruise cycle, or required the ship to be out of the water. Much of what goes on in drydock is underneath the ship, which you will never see. They inspect, repair, paint, etc. the underside and propulsion gear down there.

MarriedInStThomas1807 Posted February 14, 2018 #18 Share Posted February 14, 2018 I can’t believe there haven’t been more frequent video updates from the cruise director Marcelo Marshmallow. I want to see pictures/videos! [emoji3] Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BucN Posted February 16, 2018 #19 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Marcelo posted a new video tonight and the palm trees are gone. They are still working on the Lido deck and he said that he will try to post again tomorrow. Sent from my VS987 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

annlouisem Posted February 17, 2018 #22 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Does anyone know if the cabins will have refrigerators now? Someone posted the question on the fb page of the cd and he said he didn't think so, just low level lighting for bathrooms at night Sent from my EVA-L09 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted February 17, 2018 #23 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I think fridges would take too long. On Elation the removed the drawers under the desk to put the fridge cabinet there. Sad to see that storage go. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
