Probably just deep cleaning and minor repairs since she has all the bells and whistles already............

I'm editting to add: maybe new flat screens in the cabins......that's the only thing that I can think of that hasn't been upgraded already.

They don't need a dry dock for flat screens, but they could do those then.

RedFrog's are supposed to be rolled out across the fleet. It could replace the cigar bar. A dry dock isn't required for that.

How long are ships usually dry docked? And what do the crew members do during this time?

The only problem with the Cigar Bar location is that one is is kinda out of the way. it is "hidden" between the galley and the aft dining room. So I don't know how popular it would be hidden as compared to the Magic where it is on the main promenade.

There is a cruise scheduled on October 14-21 so it will probably be in dry dock October 21-28. They are usually in dry dock about one week.

Does the Conquest really not have a Serenity area yet? I guess I just assumed it did.
