Royal Caribbean recently gave an over $100 million dollar renovation to Allure of the Seas, finally giving the cruise ship many of the same features that its sister ships have.

Allure of the Seas spent over a month in dry dock before returning to service on April 11, 2025. Royal Caribbean released an almost 10 minute video giving us an inside look at the ship while it was being renovated.

The “Amplification” took about six weeks and most of the public spaces on board were redone.
