Why no more Labadee on Solstice this summer?

[Summerlin]

My family was on Solstice in March for the Eastern Caribbean itinerary, which included stops at San Juan (of course), Tortola, St. Maarten, and Labadee.

 

We are sailing again in 2 weeks on Solstice, and Labadee has been dropped from the itinerary for the entire summer for the eastern and western caribbean itineraries.

 

Does anyone know why? We LOVE going to Labadee. We are pretty disappointed that we will have three sea days on a 7 day itinerary to the Caribbean.

 

I think that RCCL/Celebrity really showed class by keeping Labadee on their itineraries after the devastation from the recent earthquake. On our trip in March, we watched as humanitarian supplies were taken off the ship and trucked out of the protected Labadee to the main part of the island.

 

If anyone from Celebrity is reading, please, please, please add Labadee back to your itineraries. We are on the 6/27 cruise and I bet no one would mind if Labadee was added on rather than the second to last day at sea.
