The ship last drydock was in Feb 2017.
Most modern cruise ships need to be dry docked for inspection, maintenance and class surveys every five years and once they reach 15 years of age they need to be dry docked at least twice within a five-year period. Dry docks typically last up to 14 days at a cost of up to $2 million per day and involve regular maintenance including hull cleaning, exterior painting of the structure, inspection of pipes, restoration of exterior deck flooring, and installation of enhanced HVAC filter systems
During drydock Feb 2017 the ship received a multi-million dollar facelift including a new water park (designed for kids) and two waterslides. Upgrades were also done to the buffet, the Dome nightclub and other public spaces.
