Enchantment of the Seas cut in half

This weekend the Keppel Verolme shipyard in Rotterdam sliced apart Royal Caribbean's Enchantment of the Seas, in preparation for sliding in a new 73-foot section. The ship scores 151 new staterooms and some fun new first-of-their-kind features prior to returning to service in July with a "re-inaugural" cruise from Cape Liberty Port in Bayonne, New Jersey cruise terminal.

Four bungee trampolines make their debut for thrill-seekers, which is a nice compliment to Royal Caribbean's ubiquitous rock-climbing wall. A pool area expansion adds, among other things, a splash deck for kids includes fountains that kids can control and douse their friends. A new Latin-themed lounge, new premium Chops Grill steakhouse, Seattle's Best coffee, Ben & Jerry's ice cream, plus expansions to the dining room, shopping area, casino, jogging track, fitness facility, day spa and art gallery, round out the upgrades.
