Renovation details
During its 2023 dry dock, the Sky Princess became one of the first to feature "The Catch by Rudi." In 2025, the ship received technical maintenance and a refresh of its Take 5 jazz lounge. It continues to be a pilot ship for new entertainment productions, including recent updates to its Broadway-style theater shows. The next scheduled ship refurbishment will occur in 46143. The Sky Princess has a scheduled gap in its itinerary for May 2026, which is widely expected to be its next major dry dock period.
