bookbabe Posted April 9, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Are drydock schedules published anywhere? Googling and searching in this forum has only turned up past ones, I’m looking for upcoming dates, particularly for Mariner. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrlevin Posted April 9, 2023 #2 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Mariner currently has a five day gap 10/12/24 - 10/17/24; really too short for dry dock; probably charter. Otherwise, no gaps in Mariner schedule until at least after 2025 World Cruise. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jlhalldc Posted April 9, 2023 #3 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Explorer is scheduled for a dry dock in May after her Pacific crossing from Tokyo to Vancouver. Her schedule is clear from May 23 to June 7. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her schedule is clear from May 23 to June 7. And, as I mentioned in another thread less likely to be found WRT drydocks, the dry dock for Explorer is for "freshening" (i.e, carpeting, painting and the like) plus adding Starlink according to crew on-board in March. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HongKongAlan Posted April 30, 2023 #5 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Hi all, we are on the Explorer next year. Is the dry docking expected to be May this year or 2024? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HongKongAlan Posted April 30, 2023 #7 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Thanks Potolan That is good news. We were last on the Explorer in 2017 so I was hoping that there might be a refresh happening. Presume the ship was still up to scratch when you sailed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could see small things that needed painting. The carpeting actually looked fine. Certainly, there was nothing which detracted from our enjoyment. We'll reap the benefits of the refresh--and really looking forward to the Starlink--since we'll be on Explorer next January and August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Voyager is going to go into dry dock in 2024 they are going to have to cancel an already booked trip as there are no openings in its schedule.

Kroozr23 Posted May 1, 2023 #17 Share Posted May 1, 2023 I'm seeing a gap in the Navigator's schedule after it comes into Barcelona on September 9. It looks like it doesn't leave again until September 22. Is it going to be in dry dock or is there something else scheduled? It looks like this gap coincides with its 78-day tour ending then (Sept 9) as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxare Posted May 9, 2023 #22 Share Posted May 9, 2023 I was on the Explorer last week as well. They are bringing in over 400 people for those two weeks to refresh the ship. Agree the ship and crew overall were very good as usual. I do believe there are areas that need refreshing including carpeting, areas in the cabin bathrooms, worn furniture, painting, wall paper, etc. These are minor compared to the overall experience but still needs to be done IMHO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We get on Navigator Sept 22 in Tarragona, Spain (1 hour south of Barcelona) it would be nice if they did a refresh before we get on. How do you find out what will be done?

We were on Explorer in April (Tokyo>Yokohama); I agree with previous comments and observations with the exception that electronics connectivity is clearly a product of circa 2014 architectural design. The few USB connectors are only USB-A (no USB-C)/limited # of 110V receptacles; bedside 110V receptacles under night table drawer etc. I commented on post-cruise review as GM had told me he was unaware of any plans to update in-cabin electronics/connectivity in drydock. I mentioned to him that Oceania Riviera connectivity update from late 2022 drydock provides a good example for Regent to follow. Hoping my nudge will be enough for RSSC to avoid missed opportunity.
