Pier Runners on Icon of the seas.
fla33023 replied to granger's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Very disappointing for sure. I do wonder where they were though. The thinning crowds would have surely made me check and double check the time. -
Only 2 ships can dock at Coco Cay at once. Many people are going to be disappointed with the new ports and some will be happy. I got switched to Grand Turk and was pleased as we have never been there before. I've been to Coco Cay several times so I didn't necessarily want to go there again. So, it's 50/50. The best you can do is try to make the best of it or cancel and lose money. As it's been mentioned here many times, per your cruise contract Royal can change ports for any reason. I can imagine your frustration especially coming all the way from Argentina, but there's not anything that can be done. I hope you still have a great cruise.

Live From Celebrity Constellation 3/11-3/23
fla33023 replied to jam19872016's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Thank you for this write-up! Independence is our favorite ship. Just came back from cruise #5 on her and we've been on Freedom as well. We did Symphony once and while that was fabulous, it's not in our budget nor does it always fit well with the school schedule. We just love the flow and ease of Indy. There's always good music and never too crowded anywhere. I like that Adventure itinerary and we're in Hollywood so PC is still a good choice. I think I'll leave it in the running. Thank you! -

Have you been on Adventure before? I'm debating on a similar cruise but I've never sailed that class (only higher). I'd love your thoughts whenever you are rested from returning to work. -
RoyalUP? (Bid for stateroom upgrade)
fla33023 replied to John&LaLa's topic in Royal Caribbean International
I bid for the first time and never received an email saying I didn't win. No big deal of course, but I know people always say you get an email even at the last minute. -
I guess you mean they ran into trouble after they left. You can power them up and test them out before you pull off. The no brakes is scary especially with the donkeys in the road!

Well the tour was $25/person so that would have been $75 for 4 hours. For an extra $45 we could be out all day. Time in port 8:30 - 4:30. We did 9 to about 2:30.

There were plenty of excursions available once we boarded Thursday. We rented a golf cart at the port for $120 (cash only plus gas) for the day. It was fun being on our own tour but there isn't much to see! The island is very safe, very few locals even out. Gas station attendant told us the weekends are very low-key here and most people stay home. The golf carts and ATV's are 90% of the vehicles on the road. There is nothing much "downtown". We ate at Jack's Shack and spent about an hour at Governor's Beach. Oh, a 1/2 tank of gas was $10. It was a really nice day and it was a bonus to go somewhere we've never been! And fun seeing the donkeys. They are plentiful!

We went to Chukka Estates. The roads are a little bumpy, but the place was very nice, clean and not crowded
-
Oooooh, that is nice!!!

Dear Guest, Due to the evolving situation in Haiti, and in an abundance of caution, we’re temporarily suspending our visits to Labadee for our entire fleet. We continue to monitor and assess the situation with our Global Security & Intelligence Team. We’ll now enjoy a visit to Grand Turk, Turks & Caicos instead of visiting Labadee. We’re sorry for any inconvenience caused by these changes. Nevertheless, we’re excited to take you to a new port! Below, please find our revised Independence of the Seas March 21st, 2024, itinerary.

Ship is too big for Key West. I'd take Grand Turk or Puerto Plata though.

It's still open and it's a really good time!

Labadee excursions were canceled by Royal.

On Indy 3/21, that's within 7 days so hope we hear today. They moved Grandeur to Coco Cay the day we could have went so that's out. Hope it's not the easy choice of Nassau. We were just there.

How bad is Cococay with 11000 people?
fla33023 replied to Neosophy's topic in Royal Caribbean International
I was thinking that as I'm waiting to hear what happens with the Indy 3/21 sailing. Freedom guests probably loved they were the only ship there 3/23, now we may be pulling up too! Lol -
