My SO is a vegan and is wondering if she has any choices available on this stop. I know they serve meals on the beach area but it's been a few years since we've been there. 

Any help?

Can I use my FCC with s different person? My SO does not want to go on any cruises and I have a FCC with my name and hers, can I get another person to use this credit?

We went on trans atlantic cruise a couple of years ago from FL and it seemed that the clocks changed everyday.

We are on the 9-17 cruise. We sail for beach days, so this sucks because DR is a nice beach day. Never been to Bonaire so that is ok, hopefully there is a decent beach with amenities.

We are also on this cruise and we lost a beach day at Labadee too. 

Come join our roll call

I just got a notice that our cruise has dropped Labadee and DR and added Bonaire and a sea day. We were supposed to have 4 ports and now we have 3 ports and an extra sea day, not so sure we like loosing a port day. They claim it's because of conflict about piers, seems like that could have been cured by September. I'm watching to see if we get our port taxes back for those missed stops.

P.S. I like the  stop at Bonaire

We will be visiting Aruba for a day in Sept. with another couple and we would like to rent a Jeep for the day to explore. Any good tips or suggestions such as rental places or places to see.

Though in last 30yrs minus Covid rest of your list is nothing new including previous shutdowns. First time there was 34+ yrs ago, actually nice stop then. Very Few Passengers, no Amusement Park Rides or Locals selling their wares...

Yea I think our first time was around 1993 and what you say is true back then, I think we might have been tendered in back then.

How would expect the "Pay For" dining venues to be kept busy if the MDR was 5 star every night?

I see that the PM was shot at but his security forces claim it was gangs and that he was warned not to go to that city. What is to become of that country, looks like Labadee will be a no-go for a long time.

Now You can wear whatever you want on Formal Nights, it's not like the "Old Days".

We were thinking of renting a Jeep for a day, we know half the island is a desert so we want to explore. Any tips on where to rent from?

We don't gamble that much on cruises but we have been getting many offers for free cruises lately. It used to be for inside cabins but now we get offers for O/V and Balcony rooms,with various departure ports, last one was out of Barbatos. I don't know why we have  been getting these offers but I wish we lived near these ports we would take them up on these cruises they are always for two. We are Diamond and have been on many RCCL ships so that might have something to do with the offers, like I  the said we do play the games but not like crazy. Hard to figure.

Where did you see what the possible replacement stop is?

I saw it on one the cruise selling sites, I don't recall witch one. That is why I can't confirm if it's true, one can only hope.

We are due to go to Labadee next Sept. and on one site I see that Bonaire is the replacement, I can't verify that on any other site. I guess we will have to just wait and see what happens.

tried this morning, still not working

We have been sailing RCCL since 1991 and they don't change nenu's very often, maybe every five years or so.

What is this Formal Night you speak of?

I hear Labadee is being substituted because of civil unrest, where are they going instead?

My S/O wants  to try scuba diving while in Aruba, any suggestions?

How about a Jeep rental for a day, I know half the island is a desert and fun to explore

Just got my refund today (9/4 ) for a cruise cancelled in early June

It's a new exciting venue that allows you transfer your wealth to Royal Caribbean Inc.

That's the truth, just like the the Resorts their building on some of the Islands to grab more of your money.

My SO want's to do some scuba diving in Bermuda what's a good place to go and learn?

We cruise to get away from the Internet!

Speaking long term, I’d say the quality has declined a bit over the past 20 years. 

Make that 30 years that we've been cruising.
