kona_wahine Posted May 26, 2015 #2 Share Posted May 26, 2015 We were changed to Montego Bay. Apparently Carnival not going to Falmouth anymore. We got an email from Carnival about a week ago. Did you book direct thru Carnival? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLee1973 Posted May 26, 2015 #3 Share Posted May 26, 2015 They switched allot of cruises. Rumor is that it had ti do with RCCL owning the port at Falmouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightOne Posted May 26, 2015 #5 Share Posted May 26, 2015 i jusy logged into my booking to see they switched us from falmouth, to ocho rios. any one know why this changed happened and why they did not notify me? Personally, I think that is a lot better as a LOT of the excursions people do in Jamaica are closer to Ocho Rios than Falmouth. It will save about 45 minutes of travel if you are going to places like Dunn River Falls, Blue Hole, Mystic Mountain, White River Tubing, etc. Plus they just finished re-doing the Ocho Rios port a few months back so it is better than before.

longhorn2004 Posted May 26, 2015 #6 Share Posted May 26, 2015 So RCL gave Carnival the boot from Falmouth? Interesting. Ocho Rios is closer to the main attractions, do not know why RCL picked such a bad location so far away from the visitor attractions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carrieluvsgreg Posted May 26, 2015 #7 Share Posted May 26, 2015 We just got back on May 9th from the Breeze 6-day sailing. We ported in Falmouth. We were excited because this was a new port of call for us. But as others have mentioned, Ocho Rios is closer to many of the excursions. We booked a private excursion to Green Grottos cave. It was about 45- minute drive to the location. It was fine, we enjoyed seeming more of the island but for those wishing to do longer trips like Dunns River Falls, it might prove tight on time. On another note- the port at Falmouth is very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlsea Posted May 27, 2015 #8 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Somewhat off topic, but reading this board reminded me of a zip lining excursion we did in Falmouth while on a royal Caribbean cruise. (pretty sure that the excursion is closer to Ocho Rios) It was the chukka zip line excursion (can't remember exact name, sorry!) and it was a blast!!! My family loved it and I would recommend it, if your on the risky side and would be willing to go on 10 zip lines:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
