Will the earthquake affect our port day?

Will be in Costa Rica in a couple of weeks and wonder if anyone has heard if it will affect our cruise in any way? Being a poor country I'm sure any damage may take a while to recover.

I cannot answer specifically, because I don't know which city you will stop at in Costa Rica, but the tour guide we are booked with just responded to an email 2 hours ago, so things must be fine where he is at. We are stopping in Limon.

I just read an update from the American Embassy in Costa Rica that travel to the Poas Volcanoe and the LaPaz waterfall is not recommended at this time due to continued aftershocks. Apparently some American tourists were trapped there overnight after the quake and there is some damage. As long as the aftershocks continue I don't see any ship tours going there.

Bbiggar & Roddee:

 

I have also sent an email off to our tour guide however, I have not heard from them yet.....will keep posted.

 

I also called my PVP and no changes to the itinerary yet

Sounds like we are probably good to go then. See you 'round the ship
