Carol28 Posted July 5 Author #3 Share Posted July 5 Thank you for the list. Renovation doesn’t mean refurbishment. We just left the refurbished Silhouette and it was fabulous. I want to know which others are similar? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jim_Iain Posted July 5 #4 Share Posted July 5 Also be aware that refurbishment doesn't necessarily mean a ship was revolutionized. About 1/2 the M and S Class either were not revolutionized or only partially revolutionized. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equinox was only partially revolutionized. Your best bet would probably be booking an E-Class ship. Two M-class ships were fully revolutionized 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comfortable seating is still available on Constellation! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunSandSea Posted July 7 #7 Share Posted July 7 For clarification for newer cruisers can you please spell out the difference between revolutionized vs refurbished. Thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted July 7 #8 Share Posted July 7 Refurbishment spiffs things up. 'Revolution' ala X is far more than that, and to some minds, not a step forward. Repurposing of space, and replacement of comfort with appearance in some cases. https://www.celebritycruises.com/blog/celebrity-millennium-revolution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We found the furniture uncomfortable and a definite lack of storage, especially drawers, in the room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We found the furniture uncomfortable and a definite lack of storage, especially drawers, in the room. We loved the refurbishment generally. The extra seating at the sunset bar area, the suite deck area…She is my favourite ship! However, I would agree that some of the furnishings were less than comfortable. Many low chairs, hard for the tall or less mobile to use. In the suite lounge I needed cushions to prop me up on most seats… Definitely spotted the reduction in drawers. We were in the PH and all the drawers in the bathroom had become open spaces! Very pretty when not used but totally impractical to unpack your cosmetics in. Also on the balcony a couple of really odd chairs… I guess looks over function rules! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted July 7 #11 Share Posted July 7 Wondering what's planned for ECLIPSE... we are booked for 2026 after a refurb or update. ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted July 7 #12 Share Posted July 7 I hope they don't ruin the "lawn" on Eclipse as they did on Equinox! Taking out the grass and adding a lot of tables and chairs is no improvement to the Sunset Bar area for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you play golf, you'd be scratching your head for sure. The fringe on most greens would have made a far better putting surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was kidding about that! 😄 Just wondering about how long it will take the new CEO to RCCLize X ships. We've been a couple X ships after "refurbishment", and it seems that it's not always done across the board. For example, public spaces and suites might receive all new soft goods, and then we hear reviews after the cruise stating that regular veranda cabins are still looking tired. If wondering what's been done on a particular ship, I'd be asking someone in a comparable cabin what they encountered since otherwise, the answer might not match up.

39august Posted July 8 #23 Share Posted July 8 canderson, All kidding aside, she is doing a pretty good job of it so far! We left RCI for X several years ago. Not happy to see all the "royalization" so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
