We have two booked on her, and I will probably squeeze in at least one or two more. Mainly to get a Lady G crystal block. Thanks we’re looking at mid summer 2020. My wife is a teacher so we’re relegated to holidays and summer. 😞 Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we canceled our July 2020 Bermuda/Bahamas and changed to a Sept 2020 NE/Canada cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She just left on her way to Cadiz. Biker, who finds reviewing older threads interesting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know, general maintenance & touch ups? or are things actually getting added/changed? Im scheduled on her next summer when she's doing the Bermuda routes from Baltimore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zebra36 Posted August 9, 2021 #56 Share Posted August 9, 2021 On another thread someone noted seeing her recently in/near St Martin(?) and looking worse for the wear. Hope they can get in some cosmetic face lift work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillHoo Posted August 9, 2021 #59 Share Posted August 9, 2021 We were supposed to be on Enchantment in Oct 2021. sadly, now that cruise has been cancelled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ymncruise Posted August 9, 2021 #60 Share Posted August 9, 2021 We were docked next to the enchantment of the seas in st Maarten. She was looking pretty rusty and shabby. I’m hoping she receives a thorough refresh before moving to Baltimore. I’m looking forward to cruising from Baltimore since it’s close to home.

I was on the Enchantment twice. That 75 foot extra section gives it an edge over the others in class. Massive extra public space with a great Lido Deck. However, if maintenance is needed and a few million more dollars are needed, do it! The Royal Caribbean Solariums on the smaller ships need to have the glass ceiling removed. Otherwise it is like a half sauna in the warmer climates. Enchantment has this bouncing device they tie to you with bungee cords as to jump up and down that was closed both times I was there. Get rid of it. They got the Lido deck. Make it the shining jewel. 83 thousand tons of 4 ships less of the class. One is 75 thousand and two other 77 thousand tons.

ymncruise Posted August 9, 2021 #62 Share Posted August 9, 2021 We sailed on her in the late 90s when she was new. Would be awesome to see her brought up to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shipgeeks Posted August 9, 2021 #64 Share Posted August 9, 2021 I loved the bungee trampoline! Used it many times, as did many others, both kids and adults. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A poster has typed bungee trampoline. On Enchantment if that what what was meant, it is a small area on one side of the ship. And it was closed both times I was on the ship for cruises every day. Definitely wind may affect it or there was not much concern for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRF Posted August 10, 2021 #66 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I hope they add more specialty dining. I am used to Grander with 3 venues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipgeeks Posted August 10, 2021 #67 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Bungee trampoline is forward, on the bow. Fabulous to be jumping while sailing out of a port! Be sure to pack a pair of socks, to wear while jumping. I'm not sure what "small area on the side of the ship" refers to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandie Posted August 11, 2021 #68 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Enchantment of the Seas is currently on her way to the shipyard in Cadiz, Spain, scheduled to arrive on August 18, 2021. Her first revenue sailing is now scheduled for December 23, 2021. We are booked for a 12 night Caribbean sailing on March 5, 2022. Hopefully she will get maintenance, painting, etc. so that she is all set to resume sailing out of Baltimore as planned. Enchantment had been doing 3 and 4 night sailings from Florida when Grandeur of the Seas replaced her in Baltimore. Grandeur was to have been sold to Pulmantur, but the company filed for Bankruptcy soon after Covid hit. Grandeur is currently scheduled to sail out of Nassau. We sailed Enchantment previously from Baltimore during the winter months which is why keeping the glass enclosure over the solarium is essential.

SRF Posted October 2, 2021 #75 Share Posted October 2, 2021 (edited) What is this about Legend coming to Baltimore? Why would RCI buy back a ship that they sold almost 5 years ago, when they were in the process of selling Grandeur??? And why would they buy back a ship that has the additional hull inspections required of older ships??? And bring back a ship that is almost 600 passengers smaller than the Grandeur, again, that they were also selling????
