rid891 Posted January 18, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 18, 2018 I guess the Title is also my post...so, if anyone has an update pass share. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarheel_Cruiser Posted January 18, 2018 #2 Share Posted January 18, 2018 I'm curious also because we board her on the 28th. All I know is that she is still scheduled to go to the Grand Bahama Shipyard as soon as she disembarks the current sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted January 18, 2018 #3 Share Posted January 18, 2018 I believe this dry dock is only to do some maintenance on the propulsion system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biker19 Posted January 18, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 18, 2018 All I know is that she is still scheduled to go to the Grand Bahama Shipyard as soon as she disembarks the current sailing. The RCI app developers didn't get the memo- the app shows a regular Eastern sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyhawk8519 Posted January 18, 2018 #5 Share Posted January 18, 2018 The RCI app developers didn't get the memo- the app shows a regular Eastern sailing. Not mine... "No sailing week of Jan 21" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biker19 Posted January 18, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Not mine... "No sailing week of Jan 21" That is only listed in one small box which could easily be overlooked and they then list all of the activities and schedule. The fact that there's no sailing should have been real prominent on the calendar when you pick the sailing and nothing else should have been listed. It's pretty obvious it was a cheap after the fact fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted January 20, 2018 #7 Share Posted January 20, 2018 So,,, for the week the ship is out of service, they have not planned any other renovations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soremekun Posted January 20, 2018 #8 Share Posted January 20, 2018 In the future, when more extensive renovations are done, I wonder if they will add water slides and the Ultimate Abyss to the Allure and Oasis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted January 20, 2018 #9 Share Posted January 20, 2018 So,,, for the week the ship is out of service, they have not planned any other renovations? I’m sure there are doing over and above regular maintenance but they aren’t adding slides or any large ticket items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted January 20, 2018 #10 Share Posted January 20, 2018 In the future, when more extensive renovations are done, I wonder if they will add water slides and the Ultimate Abyss to the Allure and Oasis. Allure will be in 2020 and Oasis will be in 2019 for big dry docks, so only time will tell. I would be great if they did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaizer Hozay Posted January 22, 2018 #11 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Are there any webcams or video anywhete to see Allure in drydock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biker19 Posted January 22, 2018 #12 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Not mine... "No sailing week of Jan 21" The developers must read this thread - they updated the app to completely remove this sailing, like they should have in the first place.

hgiles Posted January 22, 2018 #13 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Boarding the 28th as well. I doubt there will be any issues with getting things done on time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted January 22, 2018 #14 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Are there any webcams or video anywhete to see Allure in drydock? No web cams...but my eyes are right now looking at Allure at the dry dock here in Freeport. We are here on MJ, and watched the tugs having a devil of a time trying to back her ample aft into the dry dock slip this morning..:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katiel53 Posted January 22, 2018 #15 Share Posted January 22, 2018 We were on Allure last week and at one of the Q&A sessions, we were told that the dry dock was to fix the azipod and that the only other thing(s) to be done was a deep cleaning of the ship. I think the deep cleaning is because the crew has to have something to do while the ship is in dry dock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted January 23, 2018 #16 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Indeed they were working on the Azipods. It looked really funny seeing her large aft end hiked up in the air as they worked on them. Adventure was dry docked on the other side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtazz17 Posted January 23, 2018 #17 Share Posted January 23, 2018 In the future, when more extensive renovations are done, I wonder if they will add water slides and the Ultimate Abyss to the Allure and Oasis.highly doubtful. These things are what seperate each ship within classes. Not to mention that would be a huge expense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biker19 Posted January 23, 2018 #18 Share Posted January 23, 2018 highly doubtful. These things are what seperate each ship within classes. Not to mention that would be a huge expense. Slides being added to ships is becoming common at RCI (market apparently demands them) - the Voyager and Freedom class ships are getting them, no reason to think Oasis and Allure won't get them during their regular 5 yr dry dock.

This blog post links to a Michael Bayley interview from 2015, where he apparently mentioned that slides would be eventually coming to all Oasis-class ships: https://www.******************.com/2015/04/29/royal-caribbean-will-add-water-slides-all-oasis-class-ships. The link to the original article doesn't work and I couldn't find it with Google :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted January 23, 2018 #21 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Island Lady, can you post some pictures Allure in dry dock please. Sorry, never took pictures.

darthvadrouw Posted January 25, 2018 #22 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Looks like she's out of dry dock. She's just left Freeport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will indeed :D Marine Traffic says she left at 2018-01-25 11:04 and is scheduled to arrive in port everglades on 2018-01-28 06:15 , so yes very very very slow ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markbach Posted January 25, 2018 #25 Share Posted January 25, 2018 I would imagine they're going to take her out to sea and get up to speed and try some maneuvers with the repaired pod to make sure the problem is fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
