SMSACE6 Posted January 22, 2015 #3 Share Posted January 22, 2015 I dont know if something has happened there very recently, but I was there on Carnival Freedom in November 2014. I had not heard that Carnival was no longer going there. I hope they still will be going, and believe they will be. It is one of my favorite ports of call.

topaz123 Posted January 22, 2015 Author #6 Share Posted January 22, 2015 I did just a quick look see on the Carnival website....We used to stop there on just about every one of our earlier Carnival cruises..just doesn't see to be a regular stop now like it used too. We love the stop....just wondered if there was some reason it was not as popular a stop as it used to be. Thanks to all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kymcole25 Posted January 22, 2015 #9 Share Posted January 22, 2015 St. Maarten is a port of call on our upcoming Freedom, 1/25 sailing. It seems to be swapped out with St. Thomas frequently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nelsoneramos Posted January 23, 2015 #15 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Saliling from San Juan, Valor/Liberty will be on St Maarten, every saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wickedhangover Posted January 23, 2015 #16 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Not to derail, but I wish the Carnival website would bring back the ability to search by ports of call. I used to search for cruises that went to St Maarten using this feature. Depending on the cruise, it can appear in eastern or southern itineraries. As the above poster mentioned, we are going to St Maarten on the pride, but in 2016. But in the past I really liked the itinerary they ran on the Triumph, st thomas, st maarten and st croix.

poison7fl Posted January 23, 2015 #18 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I think it got too popular... The last time we were in St Maarten, there was 6 ships which bottlenecked the island with 30,000 people inundating the place. Traffic was at a standstill and people everywhere... I bet port fees have increased as well... Carnival is still going, but I bet they are going a little less because of the ship traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cccer Posted January 23, 2015 #19 Share Posted January 23, 2015 We will be going there on the Triumph in August. That being said, our first cruise we went to St. Thomas and St. Maarten. Since then we have stopped at St. Thomas five times and never St. Maarten again. Looking forward to going there again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roscoe13 Posted January 23, 2015 #20 Share Posted January 23, 2015 A Carnival ship is scheduled to be in St Maarten 143 times between now and the end of this year. Well, that kind of deflates the OP's premise.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evandbob Posted January 23, 2015 #21 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Exactly. I was on the Freedom Dec 13 and had a gourmet lunch at Anse Marcel in St Maarten and am returning on the Valor cruise of March 27. Hopefully the seaweed issue at Orient Beach will be abated by that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silverman Posted January 23, 2015 #25 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Most of the ships are not going to St Marteen. As far as I know. Its the same for all the lines. Tortola BVI is the new stop with St Thomas. Late 2015-2016. I have been wondering the same thing. Why are they not going there anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
