Poohjo Posted August 13, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 13, 2014 We are sailing on the Caribbean Princess on September 6 and booked our excursion for the Island of Roatan, Honduras months ago. It showed confirmed and now we are on a waitlist. How does that even happen? I get it if they cancel the excursion, but this is showing Waitlist. We've done this excursion before and loved it. It is for the Maya Key Private Island, Animal Sanctuary & Lunch. Has this happened to anyone else? Penny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loonbeam Posted August 13, 2014 #2 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Most likely the vendor reduced capacity for some reason. You should have gotten notified when it happened but they will not tell you why.

Colo Cruiser Posted August 13, 2014 #3 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Yes maybe they downsized the tour. Speak with the destinations poeple when you board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigster-diver Posted August 13, 2014 #4 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I'm on the same cruise, when I went to my cruise personalizer the Maya Key Private Island excursion isn't even being offered at the moment. Perhaps the original tour op bailed out and they're scrambling for a replacement, or trying to renegotiate with original op? C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MustangGT Posted August 13, 2014 #5 Share Posted August 13, 2014 We are cruising on the CB in March and this excursion is listed as available. We have not been to Roatan and have not decided what to do there. What impressed you about this excursion? I hope you will get back to confirmed status soon!

OCruisers Posted August 14, 2014 #6 Share Posted August 14, 2014 That is so odd. Never happened to us so far. Please let us know. LuLu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What impressed you about this excursion? I hope you will get back to confirmed status soon! We loved the quiet and seclusion of this excursion. They have a pool that you we just lived in for the entire time we were on this little island. You can go down to the beach and go in the ocean, however, we had heard alot about sand fleas on the beaches of Roatan and decided to just hang at the pool where there are lounge chairs. The whole pool area is sheltered by bushes. Every so often a plane would fly over us since it is close to the airport. It offered a nice buffet lunch and there were iguanas everywhere. Before heading back to the ship, we walked around the santuary to see the different birds and animals roaming. It was just beautiful. If they don't open this excursion back up, we will probably just hang on the ship. Hope this helps make ur decision. Penny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poohjo Posted August 24, 2014 Author #10 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Did you contact Princess about your waitlisted excursion? Yes, just contacted them to see if it was completely cancelled or if we are just on a wait list since that is what reads on our booking and according to the rep I spoke with, this excursion is completely cancelled for our cruise which is such a bummer. I asked if there was a possibility of it opening back up and she stated that both times offered for this excursion have been cancelled so this excursion will not open for our cruise. I guess we need to look for something else to do while in Roatan. Penny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JustinPlusLauren Posted August 24, 2014 #11 Share Posted August 24, 2014 That's too bad, sorry to hear it, I've never had that happen before. Hopefully you can find another excursion to take, whether it be through the ship or through a private tour operator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
