FreestyleNovice Posted January 21, 2016 #201 Share Posted January 21, 2016 "If last week's abrupt announcement that Harvest Caye would not open for another eight months seemed odd, credit The Norwegian Edge for the delay. The company says it is expanding its plans for the Belizean port facility, which will offer a resort-style experience on Western Caribbean itineraries. Among the features will be a massive pool, exclusive beach, water sports lagoon, private cabanas and more." http://www.cruisecritic.com/news/news.cfm?ID=6767 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buddy1755 Posted January 22, 2016 #203 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Just wondering if all NCL cruise ships going to Belize will go there once it's open. My cruise isn't until March 2017, but the itinerary says Belize city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vacationdreamer<>< Posted January 22, 2016 #204 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I hope we'll be able to experience it in the future. I'm all about private islands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreestyleNovice Posted January 22, 2016 #205 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Is this all part of the major announcement FDR alluded to that was to come the beginning of the year? I think so, it's a $400m project spanning several years. But anything FDR has to say is "big news", of course. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got ours too, we're cruising in May. We're cruising in April and haven't received any notice other than the changed port on the itinerary attached to our final payment confirmation. But who usually re-examines an itinerary for changes?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaDaaa! Posted February 24, 2016 #215 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Hmm, we are booked on the Jade 11/13/16. I wonder where we will be headed? We're on the Jade a week after you. Hopefully one of us will make it to Harvest Caye. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidalwave500 Posted February 25, 2016 #216 Share Posted February 25, 2016 We are sailing on the Jade this Sat. We were going to Harvest Caye,but got notice a month ago that it would be Belize City. Notice said it would be another 10 months,so 9 months now,if you can believe them. I'm surprised that some people are just now getting notices,looks like NCL waits until you are a month away before notifying customers of the change. They should be sending notices out to everyone affected by the change. My final payment was in Dec,I made several calls to see if the opening was on schedule. None of the agents at NCL had a clue,some weren't even familiar with Harvest Caye. Looks like they kept their employees in the dark as well as the customers. I would not have booked if I had known. Informing people a month ahead of time gives few people a chance to cancel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smoosh21 Posted March 2, 2016 #218 Share Posted March 2, 2016 This was just posted by Cruise Critic elsewhere. http://www.cruisecritic.com/v-6/news/news.cfm?ID=6743&UTM_Source=Social&UTM_Medium=Facebook&UTM_Campaign=News&UTM_Content=Norwegian&UTM_Term=Norwegian No Harvest Caye for us Yikes, I just booked a cruise on the Getaway mostly because it stops at Roatan, but I liked that we would go here instead of Belize City again. It is for Thanksgiving week, so with all the delays, we still may not make it. I am hoping this time they erred on side of caution and put a date that is later than they think it will actually take now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
