An update over dry docks, ship renovations, and port changes:
While this is like nothing any of us have ever experienced, we continue to evaluate how it impacts our travel partners return to service. This is an update over ship happenings and changes as Royal Caribbean inches closer towards reopening for business. One Dream at a Time, wants to ensure our travel friends are aware of verified changes as cruise companies contemplate reentering the waters.
Royal Caribbean’s Ship Update:
Due to the impact of COVID-19 and given the closure of shipyards along with the disruption to the supply chain, Royal Caribbean® would like to make you aware of some updates regarding Allure of the Seas®, Explorer of the Seas®, Liberty of the Seas® and Adventure of the Seas®.
- The Allure of the Seas Amplification has been postponed until further notice. Additionally, due to pier construction delays in the Galveston terminal, the pier will unfortunately not be ready to welcome an Oasis Class ship. Therefore, Allure will no longer sail from Galveston, Texas, and rather, local fan-favorite Liberty of the Seas will assume Allure’s itineraries in late 2021.
- The Adventure, Explorer and Liberty of the Seas Amplifications have also been postponed until further notice. All Explorer sailings will be cancelled through August 2020 to complete a technical dry dock.
We will notify our travel friends and clients affected by these changes with more details and options available to book new travel.
Thank you for understanding that today’s ever-changing environment has led to our travel partner(s) decisions beyond our control. Please know our commitment to providing the best vacations at sea, theme parks, or resorts will never waver, nor will our commitment to you — our valued friends.
