Constellation in drydock?

Recommended Posts

Hi Celebrity fans!

I just heard the Constellation is going into (or is already in) drydock. I thought she was in outstanding shape. Can anyone tell me why this is happening? What's Connie :) having done? Will we recognize her when we sail the Baltic on her this summer?

 

Thanks for any updates you can provide (I checked Celebrity's website but couldn't find any links)

They canceled my cruise for this dry dock. They are installing an auxiliary diesel engine. It will be used for providing electricity when the ship is in port. The gas turbines are great while at sea, but inefficient while in port. The fuel is expensive and burns fast.

Also the radial thrust bearings for the mermaid pods will supposedly be replaced/repaired. And, if it's not already complete, the bedding will get the 'upgrade'.

I also thought they were removing the last of Cirque d'soliel from the Bar at the ends of the earth!
