Dave4120 Posted April 16, 2016 #1 Share Posted April 16, 2016 On the 15 night Jewel Re-Positioning cruise April 28th right after its dry dock. Are there ever any updates or progress reports? Just hoping there are no cancellations like with The Empress Dry Dock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gagirl7143 Posted April 16, 2016 #3 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Nothing cancelled, and no news with regard to the dry dock either. So glad you are keeping those of us on the Transatlantic informed, we appreciate it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave4120 Posted April 16, 2016 Author #4 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Thanks very much. I would hope because it's a repositioning cruise plus a 4- night cruise before ours, they would try very hard to have things done in time as to avoid angry passengers waiting to cruise from Rome after our cruise.

OfTheSeasCruiser Posted April 16, 2016 #5 Share Posted April 16, 2016 I would say Jewel will almost definitely sail on time. There might still be some work going on, but I don't think anything major will come up. Empress was a different situation as it appears they really didn't know what they were getting into.

Dave4120 Posted April 18, 2016 Author #16 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Awesome post....thanks. Not knowing how much these hard workers can get done in a short period of time, you look at the photos as a person with no knowledge, and you might say...how are they going to be finished by this Saturday.

jlajr Posted April 19, 2016 #21 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Thank you, Dave4120, for opening this thread and thank you, pilotboy1985, for posting the photos. I'm happy to say that a month from now, I'll be on the Jewel of the Seas. I'm also happy to say that I'll be staying in the brand new two-bedroom don't-call-it-a-Suite-because-it-doesn't-come-with-Suite-perks cabin on deck 10 (1054), by myself! Until this dry dock, the Concierge Lounge was in this space. BTW I'm not complaining that I won't get Suite perks. The cabin is (for now?) categorized and priced as a standard Family Ocean View (FO) cabin, even though it is almost twice as big as other FO cabins (589 sq ft vs 319 sq ft), with panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows across the hall from the Royal Suite mid-ship. OK, well, now that I've let the cat out of the bag... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rukkian Posted April 19, 2016 #22 Share Posted April 19, 2016 We have a little longer (2/12/17), but are also in a new room - 1148. Just a standard balcony, however. Excited to see reviews and get info after it comes out of dry dock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jancl57 Posted April 19, 2016 #24 Share Posted April 19, 2016 We leave 6 weeks from tomorrow on the Jewel for a 9 night Greek Isle Cruise. Does anyone know what new restaurant(s) will be on the ship? I wanted to make reservations but it is currently only showing Chops Grille. Also, anyone been on this particular cruise before? I'm wondering if it would be cheaper to try and book a shore excursion through an independent company while in Naples. Thoughts anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, no info from the Cruise Line. They like to keep things a big secret. With regard to the excursions, I would check the Ports of Call forum here: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=595 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
