San Juan port closed? Wonder is in St Thomas


Recommended Posts

I was checking on Wonder's position this morning expecting to see her approaching San Juan for the first time in a long time, but she just turned into St Thomas Crown Bay.   Quick search says something closed the port of San Juan, didn't see anything here yet.

Wonder is docking in St Thomas and people on board say the Dominican Republic stay has canceled, they appear to be on the normal eastern itinerary for Wonder, but skipping Coco Cay (as planned)image.thumb.png.888938401947216bf29b4eab4e6c19f9.png

An MSC ship hit and damaged the dock in San Juan where Oasis class ships dock a few weeks ago. They were unable to repair it in time and would not allow Wonder to dock on the other side of the dock so Wonder was switched to Eastern.

Yes, those of us on Wonder are in St Thomas today and we will visit St Maarten tomorrow.  As Mike mentioned, the changes are due to dock damage in San Juan (a dolphin mooring pier was damaged by an MSC ship).  Note:  CoCoCay wasn’t on our original itinerary.  We missed San Juan plus our two consecutive days in Dominican Republic (one of those was a Labadee replacement).  Mileage from St Maarten to DR then on to Port Canaveral is too great to keep even one decently long day in DR, so both DR calls were canned.
