ckrobyn Posted July 29, 2013 #2801 Share Posted July 29, 2013 We are ok with lighthouses? I don't have any experience with lighthouses..... if they are damp and dark, I may have an issue with it....lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckrobyn Posted July 29, 2013 #2802 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I don't know if anyone got back to you. We are sailing the Explorer in November and have booked a cabana at Labadee at Nellie's Beach. Just call RCL and the customer service rep will set it up. That's how we did it. I called RCI, was told cabanas are not bookable until onboard. You can call RCI 10 times and get 10 different answers....thanks for the info, I will try again. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leafpeeper Posted July 30, 2013 #2804 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Allure eastern sailing in March unless I get one in before that one. I was going to book Adventure but since it would be going into dry dock shortly afterwards I think I am going to wait until next year for that. But I haven't been in the southern Caribbean for a few years now and I am getting real itchy to get back down there. I just wish RCI would put both St. Thomas and St. Maarten back on the same itinerary with Aruba and Curacao. I really liked that itinerary when the ship sailed it. Where are you going on Explorer? If you need any suggestions for things to do in Bermuda you know who to ask.;):p Repositioning cruise from Boston end of October stops in those places. Brillance of the Seas?

Ocean Boy Posted July 30, 2013 #2805 Share Posted July 30, 2013 (edited) Repositioning cruise from Boston end of October stops in those places. Brillance of the Seas? I might just check that out. Thanks! I think I could go back to a Radiance class ship knowing that Allure is coming up. I kind of miss the Royal Promenade when we do the Radiance class.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I too was having trouble booking my cabana on Barefoot Beach ahead of time. Just be persistent, it took me 4 emails before they were able to confirm one. I was getting very nervous as I had seen that there are to be 2 ships in Labadee on that day. Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarea Posted July 31, 2013 #2816 Share Posted July 31, 2013 How much does a cabana cost? I believe they are $200 at Coco Cay and $250 at Labadee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougsmitty Posted July 31, 2013 #2817 Share Posted July 31, 2013 $250? Wow. Is it really worth that much? How many people can it hold? Sent from my SCH-I535 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted July 31, 2013 #2818 Share Posted July 31, 2013 $250? Wow. Is it really worth that much? How many people can it hold? The ones at Coco Cay are for a max of 6 people, and I think Labadee is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seaworthy01 Posted August 1, 2013 #2819 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Has anyone ever had their itinerary changed due to a storm? What was the outcome? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted August 1, 2013 #2820 Share Posted August 1, 2013 (edited) Has anyone ever had their itinerary changed due to a storm? What was the outcome? Not on Explorer, but on a Voyager transatlantic we skipped the Azores and they substituted Tenerife. This was due to a storm in the North Atlantic. Because of the short notice, there were very few ship excursions available in Tenerife. Edited August 1, 2013 by clarea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booking a cabana in advance on Royal's website would require payment by credit card up front. Requesting the Concierge to reserve a cabana delays the charge until you are on board.

Ocean Boy Posted August 1, 2013 #2825 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Has anyone ever had their itinerary changed due to a storm? What was the outcome? When we were on Independence Explorer was supposed to be in Labadee with us but the ship never made it because they got slowed down due to a storm. It was unfortunate for them but it was very much to our advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
