Adventure dry dock in south Hampton?

[colesc15]

My March 2nd cruise is no longer the final cruise before dry dock I guess since there's more sailings added to its schedule in March. It's sailing to Southampton in April. Is that when they will do the dry dock? Or is that not where dry docks can take place?

I can see a gap from 30th March 'til 9th April 2014 before the TA to Southampton. Drydock period ?

First sailing after dry dock should be 13 April 2014 - we're already booked on it - hopefully, everything will run on time

There is a 4 night sailing showing from 9th April, then the 7 night from 13th and then the TA departing on the 20th.

Since we don't have access to these schedules yet, could someone please post the TA itinerary for AOS in April 2014?

The dry dock wouldn't take place in Southampton, it would likely be Blohm + Voss in Hamburg.

So dry dock has been reduced to 10 days only i.s.o. the 30 + days planned?

RATS - does that mean the real revitalization has been pushed back AGAIN.

Actually they did the Mariner last year in 9 days!, so it's possible.

Guess they will build less stuff than what was originally planned. The Basics revitalization as Giovanni's Table, Diamond Lounge I think can be done and some work like cables for wifi etc will be done during the last cruise. Just my guess.

The itinerary we have on our booking confirmation is Nassau, San Juan, St Maarten, Ponta Delgada and Southampton, St Croix has been dropped in favour of Nassau by the look of it.

Oh, sorry. I meant the fall 2014 TA on Liberty.

Navigator is still getting her monthlong dry dock.

Funny this all finally happened as at the captains corner we attended on the 1st on Adventure, the hotel director confirmed that refurb had been cut to 10 days and was the first two week period of April. We all looked at him as the capt was shaking his head nodding...and we all said...hmmmm guess they need to talk to the revenue dept as bookings still showed this. Almost three weeks for them to change this. As I just booked my airfare for my b2b as it just opened up they must have decided to stick with the schedule as they had moved it twice previously as I had to reschedule because of the shift. They would have had to shell out some expenses to move more guests maybe. The hotel director said the adventure was on tap to get wifi, park cafe, giovanni's and i think choppes is replacing portofinos, not sure about that one, and also cabin remodels and adding family suites. He was asked if all of this could be done and they both nodded and said and then some. Oh and the outdoor movie screen. It will all be good what ever they do and I am excited to see the improvements.
