Cayman Port Schedule for December up.

[psternklar]

The port schedule is up at http://www.caymanport.com/schedule.htm. The Jewel is NOT going there 16-Dec:mad:(12-Dec sailing) . RCCL will not confirm this. Anyone else have info? Where has RCCL been going instead? Thanks.

I checked my cruise on the Enchantment & it wasn't listed on this site. However, the site lists ships that are going to be "docked". When I checked the RCL site, it shows the Enchantment running tenders that day so I assume we're still going to the Caymans.

happy1 - There is no dock in Cayman, all ships tender. Maybe they are still updating the schedule :)

I hope they're still updating the schedule because Rhapsody is not listed on Dec 9. :( But my in-laws ship, Galaxy, is listed for Dec 3. NO FAIR!! :p ;)

 

Can anyone confirm if Rhapsody has started going back to GC yet?

[happy1]

Thanks for th info about all ships tendering. I e-mailed RCL to ask if a stop was still planned. We'll see what type of reply I receive.

[psternklar]

happy1,

I emailed as well, I'll post thier reply.

:mad: :eek: Rhapsody is not there for me either (Dec 19-26 cruise). Anyone know much about Costa Maya? That's our alternate port I've been told by our TA.

[psternklar]

We're (12-Dec Jewel) already going to Costa Maya. Any Idea of alteernate port? Possibly Jamica or Belize???

Here is the response I received from RCCL regarding our December 13th cruise on the Enchantment (which is not listed on the grand caymen port website)

 

Dear Valued Guest,

 

For the month of November, Grand Cayman is expected to accept two cruise ships

per day, across all cruise lines. We are working with the Cayman port

authority to confirm as many of our scheduled calls as possible for the next

month. As we do not expect to get all of our previously scheduled Cayman

calls confirmed, our highest priority is to confirm Cayman for the ships with

the least attractive alternative ports, to minimize impact to our guests.

While we would like to be able to announce the next month worth of information,

the port authority is unable to confirm that far out. It is quite a task that

the island is dealing with and we are currently working on a week-to-week

informational basis. Please contact our Reservations department at

1-800-327-6700 or your travel agent as your sail date approaches for further

information.

 

Thank you for choosing Royal Caribbean International.

So if they are only accepting 2 ships per day, is the calendar really that accurate?

 

I'm very confused!

[njoyndride]

SusieQT - They were only accepting 2 ships the first two weeks of Nov. to see how it went, obviously it went well as it now looks like a 4-5 ship average per day since that time.

psternklar, so bummed.. just saw on royalcarribean.com that the Jewel is now going to Nassau rather than Grand Cayman. Now we're at see on the 16th and in Nassau on the 17th. :mad: Not happy about it!!!!!!!!!!

[psternklar]

Oh well, beats a day at work! Does anyone know how the stingray swim is at Nassau?

Heard from my T.A. today that there has been an itinerary change for the Grand Cayman stop - now we have an extra day at sea. Oh well, I could be staying in NC instead!! At least I'll be relaxing in the Caribbean!! :D

Gsochick,

I think your TA is wrong. Check the RCCL website. No GC. Nassau 17-Dec, at sea 16-Dec.

-Phil

We aren't going to either of those ports. We leave on 12/4 on the Voyager. GC is out.

Just checked RCCL website, shows Key West instead of Gran Cayman with day at sea Monday. Was already signed up for Stingray City..Darn. Oh well, what's to do in Key West? Never been there so might as well make the best of it.
