The4Cruisers Posted November 5, 2012 #1 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Just wondering if any Carnival ships have called on HMC since the hurricane? I've seen reports that the island fared Ok in the storm, but is Carnival going there again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBCL Posted November 5, 2012 #2 Share Posted November 5, 2012 We were suppose to go there on the 1st but it got cancelled. Captain said it wasn't ready to take passengers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirkNC Posted November 5, 2012 #3 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Thats werid as HAL stopped there on the 30th :confused:, they share the island with Carnival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvmy2kids Posted November 5, 2012 #4 Share Posted November 5, 2012 We were supposed to be there on 11/1 but got cancelled. When I got my sign and sail itemization, I noticed that the port fees were returned to my account on 10/29 even though they didn't officially cancel the stop until 10/30. Hmmmm...I wish we would have known sooner that it was going to be cancelled. We did get a letter the first day telling us of the possibility of cancellation due to Sandy damage. But it confused me a bit because all reports said HMC suffered only some beach erosion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The4Cruisers Posted November 5, 2012 Author #5 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Sorry to hear it was cancelled last week for you. Hopefully they'll be back up and running asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCTribeFan Posted November 5, 2012 #6 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Booked my B2B specifically to go to HMC on 10/31 but we missed it - we were told there was damage from Sandy. So my first B2B went from 12 nights, 5 port stops (Nassau/Freeport; GT/HMC/Nassau) to just Nassau, GT and Nassau. Oh well! Personally, I'm hoping the hideous pirate bar was destroyed and won't be rebuilt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reerun25 Posted November 5, 2012 #7 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I like the pirate bar on HMC, I thought it was neat, and a cool photo op of the ship through one of the blast holes "left" from a cannonball... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCTribeFan Posted November 5, 2012 #8 Share Posted November 5, 2012 It's a hideous monstrosity that doesn't belong on that beautiful beach. :mad: Trying to get confirmation that HAL did actually call there on 10/30. We were told 10/29 that we couldn't stop on 10/31. Going to be rather annoyed if HAL stopped there and we didn't! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The4Cruisers Posted November 5, 2012 Author #9 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Just hung up with my PVP who said that there are no posted cancellations for HMC this week. :) She also advised that if the stop was cancelled that CCL would send an alert to the passengers via phone and e-mail as well as revising the Booking on the website.

golfb4cruzing Posted November 5, 2012 #10 Share Posted November 5, 2012 You will never know until you sail. That's how they play. We saw Ectasy in Nassau and they were heading there next. Don't know if they made. More money made at sea than island on a 5 day trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
