Moosevilleco Posted October 17, 2021 #1 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Hi- can anyone give a list of those islands that are on our itineraries but still aren’t allowing ships? I am pretty sure Grand Turk is not- and I am not sure about St. Kitts- both on our New Year’s Freedom cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MeganGC1983 Posted October 18, 2021 #6 Share Posted October 18, 2021 St Kitts just started letting Celebrity port at the island. They will add back other lines over time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OP may not be definitely going to Grand Turk yet. I can't vouch for this information, but in another thread someone said their TA told them Grand Turk will initially only be allowing 1 ship per day. If so, some stops there may still be cancelled if multiple ships are planned. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/topic/2802915-grand-turk-to-open-or-not/ See post #11 The post also said they are allowing ships back on December 11th. My cruise is scheduled to stop there December 10th.😒 If Grand Turk is cancelled, Carnival has been substituting Amber Cove in at least some cases.

My Dec cruise itinerary includes Grand Turk and Amber Cove. Do you have any idea of what would be the substitution for Grand Turk since Amber Cove is already on the itinerary?

Loritd Posted October 23, 2021 #20 Share Posted October 23, 2021 I am watching this thread closely. We are on the Regal Princess in December and we supposed to stop at Grand Turk on December 7. Fingers crossed we get to stop. If we don't and they put in Freeport we won't bother getting off the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We received an email from Carnival that stated our itinerary change. I believe I read somewhere that GT is re-opening in November but on a limited capacity so maybe the cruise lines are alternating days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
