dwwall Posted July 7, 2020 #1 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Has anyone heard of any dry dock renovations being done during this unexpected time off? Equinox was not able to complete its originally scheduled upgrades. Is that being done now? Any others getting any changes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestLakeGirl Posted July 7, 2020 #2 Share Posted July 7, 2020 With no cash flow, there are no big renovations in progress as far as anyone can tell. The ships are mostly at anchor, not in dry docks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lady Arwen Posted July 7, 2020 #3 Share Posted July 7, 2020 It’s been reported here on cc that, unfortunately, there will be no upgrades, renovations, Revolutionizing or the like being considered for the foreseeable future. Some folks have been speculating there is a possibility that the m class ships might be seeing their last days with Celebrity. Time will tell.

I certainly hope not, since we have Connie scheduled in 2021. She won't be Reved, but we'll still be dining in Luminae for the first time, and will enjoy Michael's. I like the current locker room anyway. The Rev will cut it in half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Millennium was already reved and the upgrades look great - especially the revamped bathrooms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare PTC DAWG Posted July 7, 2020 #6 Share Posted July 7, 2020 The Bride and I were on the Equinox last September, she is in fine shape. Was great to still have the huge open forward Sky Lounge...great views....stayed in a hump cabin on deck 9...wish I was at the Sunset Bar right now. 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare terrydtx Posted July 7, 2020 #7 Share Posted July 7, 2020 As has been pointed out in numerous other threads already, all scheduled 2020 and 2021 refurbishments or revolutionizing have been put off until 2022 at the earliest. We have 2 Infinity cruises booked for next year and we had hopped that the scheduled Nov 2020 refurb would happen, it isn't but we do not care as we just want to be anywhere but stuck at home.

Rare chemmo Posted July 7, 2020 #10 Share Posted July 7, 2020 We were on Equinox last October. We were told that no further changes would be made until all the other ships in the queue for the Revolution had completed their changes. Generally the ship was in great shape in most area. We obviously cannot comment on all room types but our RS has same carpets and curtains that we remembered from last cruise but we had fresh bedding and a new sofa. No big deal.. The big limited change on Equinox compared to other Revolutionised ships is the Retreat Deck which on Equinox is one floor only and has no water feature (Jacuzzi tub). So if you are cruising generally this will not effect you but if you are cruising in a suite it is something to consider...The area is hot and windy, not ideal...

phoenix_dream Posted July 8, 2020 #12 Share Posted July 8, 2020 We were on the Equinox post-partial revolution and we were very happy with her. We stayed in a Sky Suite, which is a treat for us as we usually cannot afford them. Perhaps the Retreat deck is not as nice as it could have been, but truthfully we really liked it anyway. I'm not sure exactly what was revamped in the room, but we found it in good shape and the bed very comfortable. Truthfully I wish they had not revamped Michaels Club into the Retreat Lounge as we very much preferred the warm, comfy feeling of Michaels as opposed to the cold, modern, very bright, and less comfortable new lounge. But service was great and the afternoon snacks were a nice touch, as was the occasional music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
