Explorer - Where is she now?

[cello56]

Does anyone know how far Explorer is so far on her way back from drydock? None of the marine sites I can find have an accurate posting for her. 

We are on the sailing this Sunday, so a bit nervous that she arrives back in Miami on time. I don't think it is a revenue sailing on her way back.

Try cruisemapper.com.  It shows Explorer about 1300 mile east of Miami and reporting arrival at 00:30 Zulu on 12 March.

Most free sites use land-based AIS info to report the ship position so once out of range, you have no info. As mentioned above, use cruisemapper which uses sat based info (in addition to AIS) to provide coverage almost everywhere.

Please come back and let us know what has been added/changed during her refurb. There's been no details released from Royal Caribbean, that I can find, and the only thing I know for sure is she had waterslides added. People are saying there were very few changes and mostly cosmetic fixes but I'm hoping El Loco Fresh was added, at least.

Can you also let us know the menus on each night?!

The menu should be available in the app.

Just by the way, the menus completely disappeared from the app for this cruise several weeks ago.  This includes both specialties and MDR.

I do not see them now, but I will try the uninstall/reinstall trick

You can also look at the 3/26 sailing for the menus.

Still not there, but I am actually on the 23Apr TA, not the 12Mar first resumed cruise out of Miami.  The menus disappeared about the time the new MDR menus were announced.

That's probably too far out for the menu - the info in the app gets more complete/accurate closer to sailing. For Explorer, it looks like the menu is available for sailings about a month out.

The menus are now showing in the app for the 3/18 sailing, but only for the first 6 nights, not the last 2.

Are you seeing the entertainment/shows for each night?  I'm trying to figure out what entertainment/shows are in the 8night sailing
