Pride: Where are we goin'?

[Shelli]

We're booked on the 10/6 cruise. Obviously, we can't go to Freeport anymore... anybody have any clues where we'll go instead? I'm secretly hoping it's Key West.

This week, the Pride stopped at Freeport to drop off supplies (no passengers were allowed off). So, maybe they’ll still be doing that when you sail, if supplies are still needed.

We are on the same cruise. I was wondering the same. I have been checking since the hurricane, nothing yet.

I called Carnival and they will let us know a week in advance where our stop will be

We're leaving on the 23 on Liberty, haven't heard anything as of yet, but I will update as soon as i hear something.

Maybe this will help.  Happy Sails! 🛳️

I am on the 10/20 Pride cruise. Whatever they decide I will be cool with.

We are also on this cruise and haven't heard. Wherever is fine, I'd just like to know!

I’m on the boat now that’s heading to Bermuda. They will make a decision soon. They gave us a letter saying we would go to Grand Turk and Amber Cove. I know this doesn’t help you guys but a little insight. 

[Shelli]

Thanks for your input, everyone! I'm glad Half Moon Cay is good to go, but I'd already figured that. It's what is substituting for Freeport (where I didn't really want to go anyway, but of course I feel awful for the residents) that I'm wondering. I'm thinking it'll be either Amber Cove in the DR or Key West, which I love and hope to get to!

[Rayvetta]

Everybody on the 23rd cruise tomorrow will be a week out. Hopefully we'll know something soon!! But lets admit it, no matter where we end up I'm sure we'll have a great time.

We are on the Oct 13th cruise on the Pride.  We are assuming (if there are no more storms that affect it) that we'll do Grand Turks and Princess Cay, as scheduled. Pretty obvious we won't be going to Freeport - unless they are still dropping off supplies.  But Princess Cay would not take us closer to Amber Cay or Key West.  I'll be curious to know - but no matter what, it'll be fine.

We’re scheduled to go on the Pride on the 6th as well. When I called Carnival to find out since we booked an excursion in Freeport, they advised me that they would most likely substitute Nassau...but the final decision had not yet been made. Wherever we go it really doesn’t matter to me as long as I am with family and friends...and can relax.

Got an email from Carnival, we're on the Sept 22 sailing, no stop in Freeport, extra sea day

[Buffalobills]

I’m still waiting to hear about my sailing on the Liberty October 7th. I wish they would let us know so we can book another excursion at another port.

[Susan in Maine]

We're on the Liberty on 9/23 and just got notification of the new itinerary. We're staying in Nassau overnight and then having a sea day. Which is fine by me! I love sea days!!

Just got it too. I'm a little disappointed. But hey, its still a whole lot better than going to work!!!

I can understand that. However, since I'm traveling with a broken right foot, I'm not sure I would have gone off the ship in Freeport anyway. 

 

Yep - any day on a cruise is better than a day at work!

Are they still delivering supplies there and not letting y'all off?

I can't see either of these ports due to how long it takes to get back to Baltimore.  Maybe Port Canaveral, but likely an extra sea day.

 

Since most people don't seem to like Freeport as a stop, an extra sea day isn't a bad thing (except for a few sales that are offered on port days).
