molly361 Posted March 14, 2017 #76 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I thought you told us Adventure was going to PC. I knew I heard that someplace:halo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvscruising2007 Posted March 14, 2017 #77 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Is that a rumor or is that just wishful thinking? I would love a Voyager class ship out of an east coast port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

molsonschooner Posted March 14, 2017 #79 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I thought that was supposed to be Symphony and Allure? yes, you are correct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molsonschooner Posted March 14, 2017 #80 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Thanks Bob. I hope Molsonschooner does not fly into Miami to board Harmony. :o At least not as bad as two ladies that were boarding the Oasis in January on our sailing. They flew into Ft. Lauderdale to board, realized their mistake, then took a taxi to PC at the tune of 500 bucks!! :eek: I would have rented a car, but they perhaps did not have time to do that. I should know better. We are on Harmony in August Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbjen Posted March 14, 2017 #81 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I would love to see a Celebrity ship in Port Canaveral, it's just on the edge of drivability for us from Texas, Miami/FLL means $1000 extra in flight costs for us. Perhaps they'll send Equinox there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Boy Posted March 14, 2017 #82 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Pretty much a done deal switching out Nassau for San Juan for OA out of PC now. Not happy about both western AND eastern going to Labadee though. :( Losing out on St. Thomas now also. I really try to avoid itineraries with Labadee included. I don't like being "penned up" in the compound. On 8 night itineraries I view it as a trade off for an extra day but a 7 day eastern itinerary just won't cut it. I'd much rather be on St. Thomas than Labadee. But I guess RCI wants to milk as much money out of that place as they possibly can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted March 14, 2017 #83 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Speaking of PC wonder if we will get another ship?? Oh yes...please...please..please give us another ship RCI!! :D I figure if I keep begging, maybe they will listen. ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted March 14, 2017 #84 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I wouldn't count on it. I like the two we have. I would like a Celebrity ship, though. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Forums mobile app OK John, you can burst my hopeful balloon...as long as Celebrity is the third ship. :hearteyes::hearteyes: Still want to see a mid size ship here. And even better, a ship that does a longer itinerary, instead of the same old..same old. :D RCI or Celebrity...bring it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashland Posted March 14, 2017 #86 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Where would you have them go? :confused: Longer cruises further south...certainly I don't need to figure alternative options for RCI...that's someone else's job ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare whitshel Posted March 15, 2017 #87 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Is there still rumors of Coco Cay getting a hard dock? Why yes, yes it is. That will be nice to have 2 private Islands, both with docks. https://loyaltoyoualways.com/service/cococay/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coco Cay is of course leased from the Bahamian Government. Which other private island? Are you talking about the leased point of land on the north coast of the country of Haiti?

And even better, a ship that does a longer itinerary, instead of the same old..same old. :D RCI or Celebrity...bring it!! Totally agree!!! Something between Majesty & Oasis size would be perfect, going out of PC with a Southern Caribbean Itinerary. We are cruising the Carnival Magic this summer in a Spa Balcony for exactly that reason. But our preference would always be Royal, if they would bring another mid class in. Voyager class ... or even Anthem OTS... *wishful thinking*, I know...lol. ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was doing a nine night southern carib itinerary. We loved it!! Every sailing was booked. So, of course we thought "Hey, RCI is testing this market, and it's a hit!!". Then nothing. :( Sure wish they would have a better memory for how popular that market was. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got all excited thinking for sure since they filled Explorer so quickly, that they would bring similar Southern Carib sailings in on a recurring basis. PC is always our preferred port of choice, but looks like we are going to be stuck with having to go to FLL or POM for anything other than MAJ or OASIS.

I have a lot of cruises booked out of that port now. Sigh...but still want to see a third ship and different itinerary out of PC here. Lots of room and opportunity at the new terminal one now! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course the most exciting thing on the 5 night was seeing the refurbishment shipyard in Freeport:eek:, but we had a lovely first visit to Bonaire. I would have thought they made money on those cruises. Thom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rvrocker Posted March 17, 2017 #98 Share Posted March 17, 2017 So FLL is down to 1 OA class ship? Harmony Sunday from FLL Symphony Saturday from Miami Harmony Sunday from Miami Oasis Sunday from Port Canaveral Personal I wish there were 2 ships leaving on Saturday but I guess for most that are flying in the Sunday departures do work better. Kind of surprised about FLL down to 1 OA class ship though. If they are making the new Miami terminal the crown jewel, then it make sense to have the newest ships there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Boy Posted March 17, 2017 #99 Share Posted March 17, 2017 So why did RCI invest so much in Port Everglades and Terminal 18 if thy are moving the ships to Miami? The Port of Miami will never be as convenient to get to from an airport as FLL and Port Everglades are to each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
