suzk2275a Posted January 19, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Is Jewel of the Seas changing their itinerary on some of their upcoming cruises? I just did a mock booking for Feb. 12, 2017 and it looks like they have changed St. Lucia for St. Maarten. Does anyone know if this is a recent change and why they've made the change? Thanks, Susan From Royal's site: CRUISE ITINERARY There are a few changes to this sail date's itinerary. We hope you're as excited as we are about this in your updated vacation plan. Day 1 (Departure) San Juan, Puerto Rico (Set Sail) Day 2 Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas Day 3 Basseterre, St. Kitts Day 4 St. Johns, Antigua Day 5 Bridgetown, Barbados Day 6 Cruising Day 7 Philipsburg, St. Maarten Return San Juan, Puerto Rico (Return) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcanuck Posted January 19, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 19, 2017 When we booked our Feb.12 and 19th cruise back in April of 2016 St.Lucia had already been removed from the itinerary . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiptopz Posted January 19, 2017 #4 Share Posted January 19, 2017 We got an email in July for our Feb cruise. Here's what it said about the change. "The port in St. Lucia has not completed the upgrades to the pier necessary for Anthem of the Seas to call there, and will not complete the construction before the ship’s scheduled call. Because of this, it is necessary to cancel the port call to St. Lucia. We have made alternate arrangements to replace the port and we are excited that Anthem of the Seas will now call to Fort de France, Martinique, on the same day, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. " Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiptopz Posted January 19, 2017 #5 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Assuming this is the same reason they've changed with other ships as well. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again we all now about RCIs website. You may want to buzz your TA to see if they've heard any different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bouhunter Posted January 25, 2017 #10 Share Posted January 25, 2017 We are on Jewel next week and last night booked an RCCL excursion on St Lucia. Either we're going there or they'll be refunding the $$......:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiptopz Posted January 25, 2017 #11 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I'm wondering if maybe the pier just can't accommodate the Anthem and can still for the Jewel and other ships because of their smaller size? Just my guess anyways. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nieuwcruiser Posted January 27, 2017 #13 Share Posted January 27, 2017 We're on Feb. 12, booked a year out and is going to St. Maarten instead of St. Lucia. But even when we booked it said St. Maarten. I noticed that cruises before and after go to St. Lucia. I don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
