CocoaMom Posted September 27, 2013 #1 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Just got an email from Carnival with a change of itinerary for May 2014. No Half Moon Cay, sigh. They've changed it up & added another day which is great, but I've been trying for 3 years to get to HMC and even had my cabana booked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kona_wahine Posted September 27, 2013 #5 Share Posted September 27, 2013 I just booked the liberty jan 18 cruise mainly based on the half moon cay stop. I'd be so upset if they cancelled it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Roz Posted September 27, 2013 #6 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Could be a HAL ship will be there that same day. HAL owns the island, and they generally don't mix cruise lines. Roz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokergirl34 Posted September 27, 2013 #7 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Did it go from a 5 to 8 day cruise? The only itineraries I see where Freedom goes to HMC are the 5 day ones. I'm hoping they change a 5 day one to a longer one, which is why I ask. Sorry you won't get to HMC on your cruise. Both Glory and Conquest will go there next year. I think you can change with no penalty when they change the itinerary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CocoaMom Posted September 27, 2013 Author #8 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Changed all ports due to "operational considerations." This had been a 5 day - Nassau, Half Moon Cay and Grand Turk. Now Changed to: 6 day - Key West, Grand Cayman and Cozumel. Yes, PVP said he can change me to a different ship that's going to HMC. I had booked this for 2 reasons. One - this will be first sailing after dry dock and 2nd, HMC. Although we won't get to HMC, I've got 3 cabins booked and think I'm going to accept the change (the date works) ... one extra day free of charge plus I'll still be on the Freedom after dry dock. Not thrilled with the new ports, been to all too many times, but I'll survive. HMC will have to wait ... again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgiagolfer Posted September 27, 2013 #9 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Congratulations on the extra day (free), but sorry you will miss HMC. DW and I think HMC has the best beach of all the private islands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DW and I think HMC has the best beach of all the private islands. I soo have to agree with you on this. This is the BEST beach I've been to. How depressing for you they cancelled HMC. Well, it will be a great excuse to book another, and try to hit it again :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
