harveysnc Posted April 15, 2012 #1 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I am currently booked on Freedom this June with my DH. Some friends of ours have put me in charge of gathering info for a Spring Break cruise next March for about four families, maybe more. I narrowed my choices down to Glory and Freedom because of the itineraries. As I was doing some research I noticed that Glory was launched in 2003 and refurbed in 2006. However, Freedom was launched in 2007 and hasn't been refurbed yet. I got this info off of a travel website so it may be inaccurate. Where do you find the best, most accurate info like this and does anyone know when Freedom will be in Dry dock for some TLC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferfoodle Posted April 15, 2012 #3 Share Posted April 15, 2012 You can go to cruisedeckplans.com and click on Carnival. Then select Freedom or Glory. Then select "other" and choose the fact sheet under that list. It will give you the previous dry docks as well as the dates of the next one. However, Freedom doesn't have a date for its next one yet, but Carnival will give it the 2.0 upgrades in 2014. Glory gets the upgrades this Fall. FYI: Freedom did get dry docked in 12/09.

KingKong2610 Posted April 15, 2012 #5 Share Posted April 15, 2012 What are the 2.0 upgrades? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferfoodle Posted April 15, 2012 #6 Share Posted April 15, 2012 What are the 2.0 upgrades? Go to Carnival's FAQs from Carnival homepage, and put in "2.0". The first two on the list tell what the 2.0 Funship Upgrades are and then the schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steph7021 Posted April 16, 2012 #10 Share Posted April 16, 2012 So...opinion....we only cruise about every other year....we were looking at the Freedom So. Caribbean 8 day March of 14. Would you do this or is the Freedom going to be "shabby" by then if it hasn't gotten 2.0 yet? We sailed Conquest when new and then Magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
