SSMcruises Posted September 15, 2017 #2 Share Posted September 15, 2017 It's at least good to know for sure, to start making plans for the ports. We are on the next sailing (Nov 11).

Rare Coreysgrl06 Posted September 16, 2017 #3 Share Posted September 16, 2017 We're also on the November 11th sailing. I would've loved the eastern itinerary but I'll be happy with western. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roatan Harvest Cay Costa Maya Cozumel We're very excited to sail this route! Thank you for letting us know. It was hard knowing that sailings were adjusted riiiiiight up to us. We're happy to sail anywhere but I'm a planner and need to get those excursions set up, with 3 small kiddos to entertain. I wonder when our MyNCL will be updated...

Rare BirdTravels Posted September 16, 2017 #7 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Have a great cruise. We enjoy the Western Caribbean a lot (mostly because we have gone to the Eastern a lot). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbw271186 Posted September 18, 2017 #11 Share Posted September 18, 2017 We are on the Eastern sailing on the Escape departing 18th Nov and this popped up today when I logged into NCL.com - Weather Updates 2017 September 18th at 10:00 AM (2:00 PM UTC)Norwegian Cruise Line is heartbroken at the terrible impact Hurricane Irma has had on several islands in the Eastern Caribbean, ports that we have called on since the start of our 50 years in business, some of which are included in the itinerary that you are currently booked on. In the wake of this devastating storm and as part of our recovery efforts, we are working closely with our partners on the ground to determine the best way to continue to provide relief to the areas impacted by and recovering from Hurricane Irma and to determine the extent of damage that Hurricane Irma inflicted. We are anticipating that your current itinerary will be adjusted to ensure your comfort, safety and an outstanding guest experience. We anticipate having this information to you within the next two weeks as new ports of call are secured.We appreciate your patience during this very difficult time. At Norwegian Cruise Line safety of our guest, crew and ships is our number one priority and we hope you understand that these changes are necessary.

JennieCoconut Posted September 19, 2017 #14 Share Posted September 19, 2017 After seeing this post, I called NCL since I'm leaving 10/31. They still have no information on this sailing. Weird how they figured out November ones first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zqvol Posted September 19, 2017 #15 Share Posted September 19, 2017 After seeing this post, I called NCL since I'm leaving 10/31. They still have no information on this sailing. Weird how they figured out November ones first. They have announced that all sailings through November that were supposed to be Eastern Caribbean sailings would go to the west. Remember that when you call you are connecting with a sales agent who may or may not bother to check for the most current information. It is very unlikely that you are speaking to anyone at the Miami office.

gordosgone15 Posted September 19, 2017 #16 Share Posted September 19, 2017 We too are on Nov 4 Escape sailing. We called Sat (9/16) and were told they had not decided on changes to our cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ray98 Posted September 19, 2017 #17 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Disappointing. We are on a couple weeks later and I bet they will do the same thing. That is the exact same rotation from our last 3 cruises. We specifically booked this time for a change of scenery which came at a substantial increase in expenses.

JennieCoconut Posted September 19, 2017 #18 Share Posted September 19, 2017 I spoke to someone who put me on hold for quite a bit to check with supervisors about our trip. There are how many islands in the Western Caribbean? So just because it's Western doesn't mean a thing because I wanted to know days, times and which islands. We are also sailing from NY. I've seen a few people question our boat going there since it's so far.

Notyrmomma Posted September 21, 2017 #20 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Hi There! I am booked on an 11/4 cruise and I'm actually terribly disappointed as we just sailed this itinerary during March 2017 (and we aren't big cruise people, we just so happened to take two cruises in one year). It's not that the stops are bad (although I'm not getting off the ship in Honduras, I had a panic attack last time because of the bum rush of locals), I just was really hoping for Nassau...anywho...here's my question: what about Mexico? I don't know much about Mexican geography, but did the earthquake ruin anything in Cozumel or Costa Maya? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSMcruises Posted September 21, 2017 #21 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Notyrmomma - I am sorry to hear about your reaction to Roatan, but please reconsider! I have been on land vacations to Roatan 4 times and it really is the most amazing place. I am not sure what a 'bun rush of locals' is, but what I can tell you is that the beach and waters are beautiful, the snorkeling is amazing and the people are friendly. I dont react well to crowds and overcrowding and find the rush to get off the ship can be overwhelming, but I can tell you, I will be front of the line if my Escape cruise ends up in Roatan! I will be thrilled to see this piece of paradise again! As for Mexico, the earthquakes are not near the coast, and you should be fine for Cozumel and Costa Maya! Enjoy your cruise!
