  1. While true, lawsuits against big companies have turned into "surely they'll pay to make this headache go away. What's a couple hundred thousand or a million to a billion dollar company?"
  2. The only time I've gotten onboard warnings about non-RC excursions was a few years ago when Cozumel ferries were being targeted. RC canceled all excursions that required a ferry and strongly advised that no passengers go to the mainland.

  4. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/faq/questions/what-are-the-benefits-of-the-suites-program
  5. Like many of these lawsuits, the plaintiff's lawyer is just hoping for a quick few bucks in a settlement from RC thinking they'll want to make it go away fast.
  6. I've found that the menu link may only appear for the last MDR room on the list.
  7. Go do a mock booking for your cruise and click View Itinerary. Why they don't put this info in the cruise planner or app, I have no idea.
  8. I have no commentary on the topic at hand. I just wanted to give a hat tip to the user name.
  9. For all the recent concern about the Bahamas, the USA has the Bahamas and the UK as level 2 threats right now.
  10. Haiti's country security report linked from the State Department's advisory page has this: Labadee, a port near Cap Haïtien in the north only accessible by cruise ship passengers, has private security and low rates of reported crime.
  11. Nope. Used to at one time, but not anymore.
  12. Sadly I'd imagine a large percentage of passengers don't even realize Labadee is in Haiti or that there is unrest in Haiti right now.
  13. If this was true it'd be all over the cruise news websites. And you can't just randomly send ships to Coco Cay on a whim.
  14. Or just use cruisemapper which has it for free. https://www.cruisemapper.com/?poi=824
  15. I've got a surfside suite booked on Star for 2026. I'll make @Biker19 happy and resurrect this thread then.
  16. AARP cards are the old archaic version compared to RC's new gift cards.
  17. They aren't supposed to reply to outside emails. The exception is after the concierge emails you first prior to a cruise.
  18. It does though, since they are on the defendant list, too.
  19. Must be something in the water. A guy recently sued Carnival because a donkey kicked him in the knee.
  20. This could happen at any port stop. Most of the Caribbean countries RC visits have a significant crime issue.
  21. OK, even if that's true. The PR nightmare from any attack on Labadee would cost them a lot more than insurance claims and lawsuit settlements. The fact they aren't pulling out says a lot.
  22. As the saying goes, being naked with socks on feels a lot more naked than being completely naked.
  23. They didn't take over the airport, BTW. They were forced back.
