Cholera effect on Labadee

Does the Cholera epidemic in Haiti effect sales of RCI ships to Labadee?

Would you go on a cruise to Labadee or would you choose to go on an
alternative itinerary?

The cholera epidemic has no effect on my lack of desire to go to Haiti.

There has been no effect on Labadee. The cruise ships are continuing to
call at Labadee. The cruise line does not get its food or water from
contaminated areas of Haiti. The water at Labadee is purified and is
safe to drink. All food served on the island is brought from the ship.

Charles, you are correct, but are all cruise passengers as knowledgeable
as you are?

It doesn't matter if they are or aren't. So long as RCI does the same
thing for all passengers (which they do).

And RCI doesn't come out loudly and talk about it being Haiti. They
often call it Hispaniola. Or just call it Labadee.

Right. Until the earthquake I don't think they ever talked about it
actually being in Haiti. They just called it their private island.

I noticed that since the earthquake they seem to have taken to calling
it Haiti.

The island is Hispaniola.


Labadee is not a real island, but it is separated from the mainland by
the mountain range and is not accessible by land as there are no roads
over the mountains.

And the island is comprised of Haiti and the Dominican Republic.
