roseshayit Posted October 25, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 25, 2014 One of my bucket list destinations is St. John's, but none of the main cruise lines have posted it as a destination for 2015. Any insight into this? I probably wouldn't be able to head there until 2016 anyway, but it makes me nervous that it isn't offered next year.

Rare LHT28 Posted October 25, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Seems to be a stop for transatlantic cruises Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joanandjoe Posted October 25, 2014 #3 Share Posted October 25, 2014 (edited) One of my bucket list destinations is St. John's, but none of the main cruise lines have posted it as a destination for 2015.

Why not join us on the Oceania Marina, Montreal to London, May 16 to June 3, 2015? Note that the fares include airfare. We have an amazingly active roll call, and would welcome even more people.

ellieanne Posted October 26, 2014 #4 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I haven't seen it on a non-trans-Atlantic cruise in quite a long time. I wish it were on more itineraries, it's a great port. As is St. Pierre-et-Miquelon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryann ns Posted October 26, 2014 #5 Share Posted October 26, 2014 It is so far away from the other Eastern Seaboard places that it is hard to work in. I just got a brochure from National Geographic/Linblad and it has a wonderful (expensive) cruise which includes Newfoundland, St. Pierre, the Magdalen Islands, and Cape Breton. It is called something about the Maritimes, but only Cape Breton is in the Maritimes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted October 26, 2014 #6 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I saw on the port website the Legend of the Seas stopped there on one of their short cruises so maybe that is what the OP saw as well We stop there next yr but it is a crossing Lyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loonbeam Posted October 26, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 26, 2014 According to the Captain on the Royal Princess, its a very very difficult port to get in for a large ship, that plus location is probably a key reason for limited visits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
