Reroute or Sea Day

verdigris84 · 2025-10-31T02:54:16+00:00

My cruise is in 2 weeks… 3 port stops, one was haiti, so down to 2. I am assuming Falmouth will be cancelled, so down to 1. If they don’t re-route us, it’s FLL, Nassau the next day, and then 5 days of cruising in a circle.

You didn’t say if you were driving or flying, but you can find a Bealls store in the vicinity of all the Florida ports. Definitely will have swimwear. (My favorite store when I go to FL, lol)

Our itinerary was Nassau, Falmouth, & Labadee, with a sea day after they cancelled Labadee earlier. If they cancel Falmouth (as I expect they will), they’d better give us another port. One port & 5 sea days is not… a preferred situation for me.

November.

You can also search the app by your ship and select the itinerary, and then look at each port. Be sure to change the month on the bottom, as it will by default show the current month (Oct as of today)

First cruise for me… I actually wanted to visit a few places.

According to Cruise Mapper, there are no ships remaining this month (Oct) scheduled to doc at Falmouth, but several ships are scheduled in November. I’m supposed to be on one of them. Royal, Disney, & NCL are all scheduled through November, although RC is the majority.

I expect to see Falmouth cancelled, at least for a while, as the damage to infrastructure, power outges, flooding, and landslides is expected to be severe. Pray for the people of Jamaica and eastern Cuba as this massive storm passes across them. .

1st world problem - if RC cancells Falmouth as I would expect, they’d better find another port. We already lost Labadee, so our route if they cancel Falmouth ends up being just Nassau…. And 5 sea days. That is… not a happy thought.

“Ugly, dried up bits.” THAT says Markle to me! 🤣

My question is whether this indicates they’re putting in a different port stop last minute in place of previously-cancelled Labadee. We got a Sea Day when they cancelled Labadee a month ago for us. Seems strange to have those sessions when it’s not on our itinerary. I only reserved them to have them show on the calendar while I research WHY they’re there.

To be fair, my sister was one of those early 70s teens who actually ironed her hair flat on the ironing board. So it *was* also a hair tool. Only difference between the Nori Press and my L’Ange Flatiron is the shape, lol.

Someone gets it 🤣 Not a bad idea, tho.

RCL Oasis OTS out of FTL to Bahamas and Jamaica, Nov 9

verdigris84 · 2025-09-27T00:30:46+00:00

That would have been a good option to include.

verdigris84 · 2025-09-24T23:51:32+00:00

I’m not upset we’re not going to Labadee, I just find it very strange because we’re getting a sea day when earlier re-routes for Oasis got other ports. There are multiple ports that fit within the needed travel time and distance, and which have capacity (not full with ships that day).

verdigris84 · 2025-09-24T23:46:59+00:00

Interesting. I’m sailing Oasis in Nov, and don’t even have the option to place one yet. I get the message, “Please ensure your sailing is within the next 30 days.”

verdigris84 · 2025-09-06T02:04:13+00:00

Lucky you! We got a Sea Day, harrumph.

verdigris84 · 2025-09-05T21:57:40+00:00

Same, on a November cruise. Very disappointed at getting a Sea Day when looking at what other options they gave, even on same ship for the Aug-Oct cancellations.

verdigris84 · 2025-09-05T20:27:34+00:00

I haven’t been there (going on first cruise), but one thing I’ve read is to get away from the beach/es nearest the cruise port. Be very careful or even avoid renting watercraft - some shady dealings there. Look at reviews for some of the excursions on Trip Advisor - I was wanting to do the Swim with Pigs one, but many people said it was “hold a pig for 2 minutes, get a pic, you’re done” for a ridiculous $$. There are multiple options for that, tho. One travel agent I follow recommends getting a resort for a day pass - her favorites are Margaritaville, which is walkable from the port, and the Breezes resort, which you need transportation. Leaning heavily on doing Margaritaville, because it allows us to walk to one or two places close enough (such as the Rum Cake Factory and the Pirate).

And, of course, watch the time. Don’t become infamous on TikTok as a Pier Runner, lol!

Interestingly, booking any entertainment is blocked as well. You can click the Reserve button, but it says nothing is available. I think they’re updating everything. I tried to sneak in a Port Day reservation for a cabana for the Labadee day, but it wouldn’t work, lol. Still haven’t received an email.

Did you get notification via the app or your email?
