Hi,

On Feb. 13, Royal Caribbean said they would suspend calls at Labadee
for the next 2-weeks. The suspended calls affect the Voyager of the
Seas, the Mariner of the Seas, and the Navigator of the Seas
itineraries, each of which will substitute a day at sea; and the
Radiance of the Seas, which will call in CocoCay, Royal Caribbean's
private island in the Bahamas.

Best regards,
Ray

My wife and I will be on the Explorer this coming week. I sent them an
email and asked the same question. Here is the reply I got:

Dear Mr. Butler,

Six of our upcoming Caribbean sailings are scheduled to make a port call
in Labadee. Labadee is Royal Caribbean International’s private, isolated
beachfront area on the northern coast of Haiti, which is on the island
of Hispaniola.

Although Labadee has been far removed from the recent unrest taking
place in other areas of Haiti, we feel canceling our port calls there is
the most prudent course of action. Instead, our ships will spend the day
at sea, and, where possible, extend their calls in other ports.

The impacted sailings a

Explorer of the Seas – departing Miami on Saturday, February 14

Navigator of the Seas – departing Miami on Saturday, February 14

Voyager of the Seas – departing Miami on Sunday, February 15

Brilliance of the Seas – departing Miami on Monday, February 16

Navigator of the Seas – departing Miami on Saturday, February 21

Mariner of the Seas – departing Port Canaveral on Sunday February 22

The top priority of Royal Caribbean is the safety of our guests and
employees, and we apologize for this unexpected change to our
itineraries. We will continue to closely monitor events in Haiti and we
look forward to resuming port calls in Labadee in the very near future.

I appreciate your ongoing support of Royal Caribbean International.
Should you have and additional questions, please let us know.

Thank you for choosing Royal Caribbean International.

If that were true, they would never port in Jamaica.

I am guessing that the fact that we sent Special Forces into Haiti today to
guard our Embassy there will prevent ships from calling there this week as
well.
