stones902 Posted November 17, 2016 #1 Share Posted November 17, 2016 We are booked on the Rhapsody in March and I just received some changes in the itinerary. A couple I am confused about. Specifically: 1. We now depart Tampa at 8PM rather than 4PM. What is the earliest time we can now board? 2. One of our ports changed from Roatan Island to Coxen Hole (Roatan). Name change only or different part of the island? Thanks in advance for your replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be normal boarding time which usually begins around 11:30. Do a Google search concerning Coxen Hole Roatan.

frisbeewife Posted November 17, 2016 #3 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Is that the March 18 cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanner Posted November 17, 2016 #4 Share Posted November 17, 2016 There are two ports in Roatan. Coxen Hole is the capital. One port is right "downtown" and the other is out a bit. Perhaps they have moved us to the smaller port in town. Either way, we are in the same general area of the island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare whitshel Posted November 17, 2016 #5 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Coxen Hole is where Rccl and Celebrity usually dock, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stones902 Posted November 17, 2016 Author #6 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Is that the March 18 cruise? We are on the March 25 cruise. Not sure about the week prior. Interestingly, when I phoned RCI this morning to ask the question they still have the ship departing at 4PM.

Biker19 Posted November 17, 2016 #8 Share Posted November 17, 2016 1. We now depart Tampa at 8PM rather than 4PM. RCI has hired expert weather forecasters who know there will be a fog delay that day.:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stones902 Posted November 17, 2016 Author #9 Share Posted November 17, 2016 I wish we could get a good forecaster like that! Seriously, not sure why the itinerary changed. Perhaps scheduled maintenance? Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biker19 Posted November 17, 2016 #10 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Seriously, not sure why the itinerary changed. Perhaps scheduled maintenance? Does Tampa have tides that matter enough for the ship to clear the bridge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stones902 Posted November 17, 2016 Author #11 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Does Tampa have tides that matter enough for the ship to clear the bridge? I'm not sure of the height of the Rhapsody but the bridge has a clearance of 180 ft. I don't think tides are an issue.
