justusfour2014 Posted June 25, 2015 #1 Share Posted June 25, 2015 from Carnival about our upcoming cruise regarding a "Port Sequence Change." We're cruising in October on the Triumph and we will now go to Progreso first (minus an hour) and then Cozumel (plus 2 extra hours). It says "due to operational consideration." I wonder if this has anything to do with the survey/question JH posted about having more port time in Cozumel. Anyone else get anything similar? I found this interesting, and am super happy about having the extra time in Cozumel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cccer Posted June 26, 2015 #2 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Sounds like a winner to me. I would rather spend an extra day in Cozumel then go to Progresso, but that's just me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islandatsea Posted June 26, 2015 #3 Share Posted June 26, 2015 We would prefer more time in Cozumel too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm77 Posted June 26, 2015 #4 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Longer time in Cozumel also means higher percentage chance of getting to see the "Running of the Runners" when it finally is time to depart! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woman was waiving at people as they walked by (guess she was trying to get help). Her kids, yep KIDS, came off the ship to collect her.

jackig218 Posted June 26, 2015 #12 Share Posted June 26, 2015 So if the days change do your excursions transfer as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justusfour2014 Posted June 26, 2015 Author #13 Share Posted June 26, 2015 So if the days change do your excursions transfer as well? It said they would transfer the days and times. If there is a problem, you'd be contacted individually. Glad I didn't reserve Nachi yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tandemcruzr Posted June 26, 2015 #16 Share Posted June 26, 2015 We don't even get off the ship in Cozumel. What? Why? Plenty to see and do in Coz. Been to the 'wild' side/east coast? Chankanaab? Paradise Beach? Wet Wendy's? Casa Denis? Cinco Soles? Chen Rio? Coconuts? We find lots of places to go in Coz. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccruisequeen Posted June 26, 2015 #17 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Could be too many ships in a port that day, they do that when princess is in Catalina. I still cruise for Warm Chocolate Melting Cake (with 2 sugar-free vanilla ice-creams) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

love my grandkids Posted June 26, 2015 #19 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Agreed this is one of those rare good changes for operational reasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ja_martin Posted June 26, 2015 #20 Share Posted June 26, 2015 We don't even get off the ship in Cozumel. Out of curiosity, why don't you get off? Is it that you've been there many times? Or that it just doesn't offer you what you look for in a port? It has beautiful beaches, very good shopping, great food/beer at a reasonable price (if you are brave enough to eat off of the ship). Sometimes I don't get off in Jamaica (people way too aggressive and not always in a friendly way) nor in Honduras (sand fleas eat me alive) nor in Belize. I am just curious about your reasons.

portocaller Posted June 26, 2015 #22 Share Posted June 26, 2015 I noticed two weeks ago that our July cruise changed from 9 to 4 to 8 to 5. It didn't change sequence though so no email about it but I am excited because Cozumel is my favorite place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towel Critter Posted June 26, 2015 #23 Share Posted June 26, 2015 I can't stop laughing! Thank you. You are welcome. That post just struck me as snooty. If the topic had been "what are your favorite and least favorite ports," I wouldn't have given it a second thought. It was the context, or lack of, that got me. Enjoy your extra time in Cozumel!

michigyrl Posted June 26, 2015 #24 Share Posted June 26, 2015 We are on the same cruise in October and were really happy with the change...more time on the beach! To the person who mentioned the # of ships in port that day...I haven't personally looked it up but someone on another group site mentioned there would be 2 ships in port the day we were originally supposed to be there, and now there will be 3 on the day we'll be there. No biggie with me...we'll make sure we're off the ship in plenty of time to grab a couple of chairs on the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
