cruzinlady1947 Posted October 15, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 15, 2016 I remember seeing a thread that said that Royal will be docking in Crown Bay now. Just not Oasis or Allure, but all the Royal ships. Is this happening or do most of the ships still dock at Havensight? Can't find the original thread....sorry.

RCI apparently signed a new agreement with the port recently. We'll be in Crown Bay on GR in about 3 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that's where we will dock in Dec. too. Not sure I will like docking there. But, it will be different. Gwen :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABCHICK Posted October 15, 2016 #4 Share Posted October 15, 2016 I have docked at both. I prefer Havensight. Just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karena1 Posted October 15, 2016 #5 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Really? All royal ships now going out of Crown Bay? Havensight is way better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deliver42 Posted October 15, 2016 #6 Share Posted October 15, 2016 All Royal, and I believe, Celebrity ships now use Crown Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTO-Girl Posted October 15, 2016 #7 Share Posted October 15, 2016 We were there last week on the Freedom and we docked at Crown Bay. I like Havensight better.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizzkellzee Posted October 15, 2016 #8 Share Posted October 15, 2016 This is upsetting news to hear :(, I love docking at Havensight! We were on Adventure in February and we did dock at Havensight. We'll be back on her this upcoming March. Sad to hear we'll be docking at Crown Bay now! When did this come into effect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I literally just found out information on the local Dollar Bus to go to the North East beaches, would rather pay $2 each way than $10 each way! Anyone know if the bus passes by Crown Bay?

davekathy Posted October 16, 2016 #11 Share Posted October 16, 2016 (edited) Bummer! We have always liked the walk through Havensight and then the walk into Charlotte Amalie. Edited October 16, 2016 by davekathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWORK2CRUISE Posted October 16, 2016 #12 Share Posted October 16, 2016 (edited) Bummer! We have always liked the walk through Havensight and then the walk into Charlotte Amalie. It isn't a bad walk from Crown bay to Charlotte Amalie. We have done it before and if you are looking to explore the downtown area this is great. However, we are already making our December plans and this may change them. What upsets me is that I had expected to land in Havensight and then grab a ride to Red Hook in order to catch the early ferry to St. John. Now, we may need to rethink our plan for the day.

Worn out mailman Posted October 16, 2016 #13 Share Posted October 16, 2016 I suggest you change plans. I remember it taking at least 20 minutes in the cab to reach Havensight from Crown Bay. Round trip that made for us 40 fewer minutes to spend enjoying our day. This Crown Bay news is indeed disturbing.

Worn out mailman Posted October 16, 2016 #14 Share Posted October 16, 2016 I should add that the ride to Red Hook passes Havensight. We went to Trunk Bay that day Sent from my LG-H631 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We both like to walk. So if we do end up docking at Crown Bay for our April Cruise we'll walk in to Charlotte Amalie. Thanks for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mizLORInj Posted October 19, 2016 #16 Share Posted October 19, 2016 (edited) Yes, it is Crown Bay. You can check the cruise ship schedule on vinow dot com and there is also a Crown Bay port site that has a schedule of all ships for the coming year.

karena1 Posted October 19, 2016 #17 Share Posted October 19, 2016 (edited) That is disappointing. Our friends have never been to STT and we were so hoping on Summit that we would be in Havensight and not Crown Bay. Oh well, not much we can do about it, just hope the shopping at Crown as improved a ton from the last time we docked there with Oasis. Also don't like that the Gourmet Galley Grocery is so far from the pier compared to when docking at Havensight!
