One can assume she had a bit of cleaning during her dry dock recently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deliver42 Posted December 12, 2021 #27 Share Posted December 12, 2021 I've seen the Enchantment on the port cam in FLL and saw no outside rust. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told 325 accepted however it seems to be a little under 300 due to no shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of us are in the superior balcony cabins. I met one couple in a oceanview. I also met 5 couple who have a JS and 1 in a GS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have done a lot of painting. There does seem to be an issue with the water. Seems the ship hasn’t been flushed out in some time. There’s also an issue with all the pools. They were all green as grass yesterday. Maintenance has been working on them all day today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRF Posted December 14, 2021 #37 Share Posted December 14, 2021 YEAH. I drove out of the tunnel the other day and THERE SHE WAS. A GREAT feeling to see a cruise ship in the port. But I do wish I had gotten an invite to the simulation cruise. 😞 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CFIGuy Posted December 14, 2021 #39 Share Posted December 14, 2021 Feel free to let me know what questions you may have. I personally think things are going fairly well. They have had some occasional closures in the solarium, and the second outdoor pool has been under renovation. Coco Cay today was surreal with 280 cruise passengers. The water park was complimentary. Coco Beach Club was $34 I believe and overwater cabanas $400. Only other thing of note is that some stock in the shop was significantly discounted to make room for new product.

shipgeeks Posted December 15, 2021 #42 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Two questions: What is Enchantment doing for the days between this test cruise, and the start of the "real" cruises on December 23? Any emotional moments, being back onboard? (Yeah, I know, some of you have had previous recent cruises, so no big deal. Anyone back for the first time? I'm getting teary just thinking ahead to February!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has the Enchantment been doing any cruises recently? I really haven't had time to keep updated on most of what's going on with the cruise lines.

Not sure if there is a scale up of passenger occupancy under those guidelines but going from around 300 passengers on the simulation cruise to close to 2,000( heard 80% capacity from some staff on board) on the first revenue cruise seems like a large jump.
