All the excursions are gone for a port

[Jenjer]

Received a email that the excursion we had booked in Nassau was canceled for our June 18th Escape cruise. We wanted to do Blue Lagoon but I know stuff happens. So I just went to look and see what else they offered.

 

There are no excursions listed for Nassau at all. Why could this happen? I know they can not all be sold out. They have not said anything about a change in itinerary.

 

Just a computer glitch and maybe blue lagoon is still on?

I've seen that happen when the docking schedule changes. They had to rework all the excursion schedules with the local providers before putting them back online.

 

I happened last year with the Epic, for the Palma de Mallorca stop, which got shortened by two hours. The updated excursions took a few days to reappear online.

 

But in that case, the emails they sent did mention the schedule change, so I'm not sure if this is what's happening in your case.

MMMM wonder what they have cooking "for my convenience" shorter port time in Nassau?

 

Here is my email

A couple of years ago they canceled my Blue Lagoon trip for reasons unknown so I just replaced with a trip to Atlantis.

There is seldom a need to book in advance...some excursions will pop up, I'm sure, and if they don't, go to the excursion desk when you board the ship. Also, a guidebook will be quite helpful, as most things don't require an excursion at all!

[Jenjer]

We have been before sometimes we do nothing, sometimes we go to Melia. Not a fan of Atlantis so we avoid that. I just like to research the excursions and reviews before the cruise.

Can't you book something independently??

[Jenjer]

I can book independently but we have a $75 per port credit to use or loose. So I want to figure out if what's the best deal for us private or NCL's price -$75
