Rare seagunthera Posted July 18, 2019 #1 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Can anyone shed more light on what the situation currently is in San Juan? I just read that several ships have cancelled port calls there due to civil unrest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhoenixCruiser Posted July 18, 2019 #2 Share Posted July 18, 2019 There's a thread on the Royal Caribbean board that might help. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfaeric Posted July 18, 2019 #3 Share Posted July 18, 2019 The basis is that there has been some communications between the governor and his minions that has made a LOT of people really, really mad. Combine that with the pretty poor response of Maria and Irma, they are now demanding that he resign. To the point of having some very angry protests at the governor's home in Old San Juan. Which is really close to the cruise port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisingwithoutthekids Posted July 18, 2019 #4 Share Posted July 18, 2019 The protests are close to the cruise port used for Port of Call stops. However for cruises embarking/disembarking from San Juan it is not that close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are sailing Viking, which disembarks at the Old Town port, then uses this same port for their seasonal cruises using SJ to embark and disembark. Hopefully there is some resolution here soon for a whole lot of reasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
