RoyalTraveler Posted February 9, 2009 #1 Share Posted February 9, 2009 It's sad that the NCL Majesty will no longer sail out of Charleston since it has been sold. Does anyone know if anything is being discussed for another ship or cruiseline to fill the void at this port??? :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyalTraveler Posted February 10, 2009 Author #3 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Ahh, Bobs, I was really hoping you would see & reply to my post! I am so glad to know that there will be other cruises from C's port! We have thought for years that we wanted to try a cruise out of Charleston and were disappointed to learn, when we booked this one, that the ship was leaving :(. I am looking forward to being in Charleston and hope to visit again this summer or fall. We go to Hilton Head at least once every year and have discussed coming to Charleston so many times but we always decide we won't know what to do when we get there...crazy, because we love to travel. Maybe you can give us some tips on where to go, stay, and what to see? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's when we are going on a cruise... May 25th is Memorial Day and the Carnival Triumph is doing a 5 night cruise to the Bahamas. A great time to visit but will be busy.
