lizardhowson Posted December 24, 2015 #2 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Spring of 2016, I believe April is the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruising maniac Posted December 24, 2015 #3 Share Posted December 24, 2015 The representatives don't know what upgrades Valor will be receiving in April/ May. I was told by 2 different people that they want to keep it a secret until the big reveal but that the ship would be receiving the most popular upgrades. I'm hoping for Guy's, Blue Iguana, and Red Frog pub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miataman19 Posted December 24, 2015 #4 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Just got info on the drydock. 4/23 - 5/8. I've read somewhere that most of the 2.0 will be retrofitted to Valor. However, Guys Burger Joint isn't on the list :mad:. Seems the contract has expired with Guy's company and they are in negotiations to re-sign. Might not happen. Working on getting more info.

Jesziegler Posted December 26, 2015 #5 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Where are you getting your info from? If the contract has expired the magic and two others would not be getting one and they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpw221 Posted December 26, 2015 #6 Share Posted December 26, 2015 It's interesting that on Carnival's website, under "Get to know Carnival Valor", it says there's a Guy's Burgers onboard. Is that just an error, or a sign of things to come? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sxyshell Posted December 27, 2015 #7 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I am booked on the 5/15 cruise. Cruised on the Valor this past April and the only reason we booked again was because of it being upgraded but no one could tell me what the upgrades are going to be. Hopefully we won't be disappointed. It was our least favorite ship but the only cruise available for our casino bounce back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sxyshell Posted January 10, 2016 #9 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Can I ask what made it your least favorite ship? Just the fact that it didn't have the 2.0 upgrades which we love! No Alchemy bar or specialty restaurants except for the steakhouse. I think we've just been spoiled with all the ships that have the upgrades. The food was actually really good in the main dining room when we were on it in April and I can't say the same for some of the other cruises we've taken. Plus the decor isn't something that wowed us. It's very patriotic which I know some people love but just not our cup of tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishtales6 Posted January 10, 2016 #11 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Valor will always be our fave..go to ship. As a military family, we feel comfortable with the patriotic atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sxyshell Posted May 23, 2016 #12 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Wanted to give my opinion on the Valor after dry dock. This is still my least favorite ship. Our room steward was awful! Cabins 8276 & 8278 Just got back on Saturday. Great cruise but I'm still not a fan of the ship. The food in the main dining room was still excellent the 80's show was awesome and we love the Alchemy bar, Blue Iguana and Guys burger. The fish and chip place is still there and the fish was pretty good. Maybe if our room steward wasn't so bad and the cruise director was more fun I still wouldn't feel the same. Matt and Jaime are still the best CD's in the fleet, in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AK Wife Posted May 24, 2016 #14 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Maybe if our room steward wasn't so bad and the cruise director was more fun I still wouldn't feel the same. I would like to know as well - what made the room steward so bad? How could the CD be more fun? What was missing? Thanks for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lizardhowson Posted May 24, 2016 #15 Share Posted May 24, 2016 We were on Valor in January, 2016 (before upgrades). I didn't interact with nor pay any attention to whomever was the cruise director. Not sure how a cruise director could ruin a cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
