Just to cruise Posted April 22, 2019 #1 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Looking to cruise with Royal Caribbean ex Vancouver Nov 2020 I have been reading about a Re furb for the ship Radiance of the seas which part of this cruise is on The Re furb to take place in 2020 butI can’t find the month Want to know the month of Re furb and if it will be done in time for this cruise I read this ship currently is very old tired and staterooms not in great condition Any help advice much appreciated Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaveitallbehind Posted April 22, 2019 #2 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Not sure of the exact month, but RCI ships undergo a dry-dock every 5 years, and the last refurb with Radiance was in 2016. So I doubt how "very old and tired with staterooms not in great condition" she really is since 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho_proudfoot Posted April 22, 2019 #3 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I would be surprised if she was "very old and tired,". Every RCL ship l have been on always had repainting, re varnishing etc being done constantly. On one ship where we stayed aboard on a port day, we couldn't access our cabin for a few hours as they were laying new carpet in the corridor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Nov 4th she departs Singapore for a repositioning to Brisbane, where she will home port for Aussie Cruising. Although she completed a statutory dry-docking in 2016, I believe they are completing a maintenance docking during October in Singapore to prepare the ship for Aussie cruising.
