I had no idea the ship would take from 20th March when it returns to Fort Lauderdale after 13th. March cruise, to arrive in Portland by 7th. April..that’s 18 days !!! The cruise on the 13th is not cancelled though it has been changed to 6 days. CP won't leave the Caribbean until the 19th or 20th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Esprit Posted August 10, 2021 #28 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Pleased to see Regal scheduled for a refit next April. We are on board for two weeks in July and it did look a shade tired in Southampton last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess' most awful ship since they hacked her) I can only hope that they create an IC (International Cafe) like they did on her former twin, the Coral during this next maybe drydock, if this information is true. I really have tried but have been unable to find anything official from Princess about future drydocks, Since this is taking place Island Princess August 17 - 31, 2021 Marseille November 26 - December 6, 2017 I wonder why we can't find out what is taking place.

Below is the last dry dock for 2 ships -- Grand Princess and the Sapphire Princess. This should give some idea on what happens during a dry dock. Typically, the longer the dry dock (7/10 days versus 20 days) more maintenance and/or upgrades will be performed. Grand Princess (Grand Class) - Dry dock 2019 (Portland, Oregon) Reupholster lounge chairs in Explorer's, Crooner's, Wheelhouse, Crown Grill, Library, and Snookers. New information screens throughout elevator lobbies New bathtubs in staterooms New sofas for Explorer's and Crooner's Replace Mini-suite sleeper sofas Replace astro turf deck covering on upper decks Replace Horizon Court carpeting and tiles Replace Wheelhouse Dance floor Refurbish elevator interiors Repair/Refinish beverage station cabinets in Horizon Court New carpeting in the dining rooms and Crooner's. New carpeting in hallways Refurbish swimming pools General maintenance and upkeep Painted hull of ship New propellers New hot tub tiling around both Calypso and Neptune pools Ocean Medallion wiring install (not active until subsequent dry-dock in 2022) SHIP SYSTEMS: Inspection and repair of propellers, exchangers, propulsion as well as hot and cold water lines. We were on the Grand right after this dry dock in 2019 and a great upgrade was USB plugs on new nightstand lamps!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeeCee59 Posted August 19, 2021 #31 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Does Princess release what is happening during the scheduled dry dock? I will be on the Grand after this next maintenance and wonder what they will be updating/improving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are on board for two weeks in July and it did look a shade tired in Southampton last week. I'm on Regal with my family for 2 weeks in July (16-30), will be our first Princess cruise. Have you heard if this scheduled dry dock is purely for routine maintenance, or if there will be any basic "freshening up" applied to things like carpeting, decor, etc? I'm assuming a two-week dry dock is too short for anything more significant than that, but I'd also hope that after 7 years in service they'd give her a bit of a facelift.

loves2crooze Posted July 4, 2022 #37 Share Posted July 4, 2022 I am currently booked to sail on Sapphire Princess. It was originally an 8 day cruise leaving on May 2nd, 2023 but Princess changed it to an 11 day leaving on the 29th of April. I see that it's supposed to be in drydock until May 1st. Should I contact my Princess agent about this? Please advise. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both your cruise and ours are NOT available to book on the Princess site right now. I've never seen that before and its really weird. Not sure what's happening to our cruises on the Crown. Anyone have some info they can share? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loritd Posted August 3, 2022 #40 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Same thing is showing for the Emerald. September 30 and October 28 sailings are all that is showing. Everything else in August and September is show "currently unavailable" I know she is going into drydock after the September 30th cruise finishes but what going on with the rest of the dates? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somerton Posted September 22, 2022 #41 Share Posted September 22, 2022 There is precious little information about the Crown Princess dry dock in Portland starting Oct. 2. Will they finally fix the propulsion issue? I hope so, as I am booked on the Vancouver-Hawaii RT immediately following the dry dock. I note that cruise critic reviews of the Crown have been awful recently, commenting on late or cancelled port arrivals and a nasty shuddering aft. Does anyone know what is planned for the dry dock and how is Princess dealing with all the complaints? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chubbypiggy Posted January 25, 2023 #43 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Is Enchanted Princess scheduled for drydock in April 2024? Still don't see where Enchanted Princess will be in April 2024. My 20 day cruise on Enchanted ends on 4/6/24, and if the segment after my cruise is the TransAtlantic, then I would like to book it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if the above schedule is still accurate, Enchanted is scheduled for dry dock this spring march 29-April 15, and princess.com shows no cruises for those dates on enchanted, so I’d say that schedule is still accurate. If so, then a dry dock in 2024 seems very unlikely. Now, why there is no schedule yet for enchanted, or emerald also, is a question I would like to know, also. Trying to decide between a cruise and land vacation for that summer, and need to know schedules and prices! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
