Dry dock

Do we know anything about the dry dock as I’ve not seen it mentioned anywhere except on here and no idea what’s happening 🙂

I think one of the key items on every refit is the changes associated with the transition of Club Class to Reserve Collection.
 

Our dining manager on the Crown earlier this year shared that the plan was to close the Salty Dog, install a full kitchen, and move Club Class dining (which includes suite passengers) there as the new Reserve Collection dining. 

 

We have two cruises, one on the Sky and one on the Ruby, that were booked as Club Class that are now listed on Princess.com as Reserve Collection.
 

Well anyway hat’s my 2 cents.

Loves2crooze, curious about a sapphire sailing also.  Please join roll call if you haven’t and hope we can find out.  This is first time I have heard about this.

 

Sapphire Princess is currently in the Columbia River enroute to Vigor for a 14 day dry dock in Portland.

The island has a gap in her schedule from May 24 2024 till July 5th 2024. 6 week refit announced on the current WC last night. 

 

I think most Princess loyalists would agree that the best use of those 6 weeks would be to undo the “Frankenship” hack job they did on her and restore her to her original fit-out. The likelihood of that is almost nil so…..  the best we can hope for is a complete overhaul of all existing spaces to bring her up to design spec with the newer ships in the fleet and replace the sad tired decor with something more fresh and modern

Does anybody know what they are doing to the Enchanted in dry dock?

Have just seen reports of a change to dining on the newer Royal class ships including Enchanted.

French bistro going & Sabatini's going in its place then The Catch by Rudi (seafood restaurant) going in where Sabatini's was on Deck 5.

I do really hope this will be the case. We are on her 05 August 2024 from Barcelona. It will be our first trip on Island and I was very dubious about booking on her, having read the reviews since she was changed from being like her sister ship Coral. We loved Coral.
