The ship last drydock was in Jun 2018.

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

SUN PRINCESS was built for P&O Princess.

During dry dock in 2013 the Sun Princess added the International Cafe to the atrium, a new dining venue called Kai Sushi (sushi and seafood), new action stations in the Horizon Court and a thorough makeover for the Lotus Spa.
