Hoyaheel Posted April 8, 2016 #52 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Larry Pimentel has posted on twitter that the Quest refurbishment is slightly ahead of schedule which is great news for all those boarding soon Yes, I quoted that tweet in post 39 of this thread. Unless he said it again today, in which case, I haven't, because I'm traveling and copying/pasting is a PITA on a phone:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marinaro44 Posted April 8, 2016 #53 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Pam, I've been giving more thought to your allergy issue, and I think having the staterooms stripped down to bare walls and completely redone from the walls out and bare floors up should be beneficial for someone with such allergies. In particular, removing the old carpets and, especially, the old drapes and curtains would be very helpful. The one thing that might be noticed by some is the odor from all the glue used in laying the new carpeting all over the ship. This was not an issue for us from an allergy perspective but we did notice the odor on Journey until about a month after the drydock was completed. Worth it, though, as the carpeting is very nice and gives the ship an entirely new look. The light colors require more frequent cleaning, though, according to Ryszard.

Pam Posted April 8, 2016 #54 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Thank you for thinking about that. My allergies aren't as bad as some people, my grandson in particular; he has asthma and construction dust really sets it off. But yes, new everything will be great after "the dust settles". We did some remodeling work in our previous house, and I was finding drywall dust in unexpected places for months afterwards. I won't be on Quest until August, so I'm sure all the dust will have settled by then, I was just kind of surprised to see a fully made-up bed and didn't think about the photo op thing.

marinaro44 Posted April 8, 2016 #55 Share Posted April 8, 2016 We did some remodeling work in our previous house, and I was finding drywall dust in unexpected places for months afterwards. Drywall dust is about the worst, especially from the mud used in taping over joints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pam Posted April 8, 2016 #58 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Oh my goodness; those PURE cabins look amazing! Crystal is a tad too dressy for me, but that is definitely a good step for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We loved it! Here's a short blog post I wrote about the food there.. Three Days of Great Food in Singapore Also, Azamara maintains various photo destination boards on Instagram. I'm not a whiz on Instagram so I'm not too sure how to link you to the specific board(s) featuring Singapore. I'll ask and see if someone can instruct me. I'll let you know :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
