Creator's Key Takeaways

this Voyage was taken in March of 2019 and it was my opportunity to have a look at the changes that were made to the ship following her 2018 refit

the carpeting and window dressings have been modified during that refit otherwise the rest of the space looks relatively similar to how it did before

the theater has all these fantastic little corridors and staircases that lead down to the boxes and along with Queen Victoria was one of the first two ships to have box seating in the theater

the after end of deck 9 by the adults only swimming pool has been renovated to include this new lighting system which gives a great ambience in the evenings

Creator's Tips & Advice

Check out the new carpeting in the corridors and stairways for brightened spaces
Visit the library for its two-story design and updated carpeting
