This is fascinating. It says on the web site they are looking at three ships. The idea seems to be to remodel the balcony decks to put in the large suites. The more of the ship you leave alone the lower the price of the shipyard work. If they are doing the designs now you spread out the crew/staff in the remaining inside/outside cabins. They can probably buy the ships for just over scrap value so they save a fortune vs brand new. As ChengKP has taught us though they have a lot of inspections and refurbishing ahead for 25 more years and run the risk of new regulations being imposed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
