MrLacox Posted November 26, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Last friday RCI announced the cancellation of 90 visits to San Juan, PR during 2020. This total includes port of calls on cruises by the Allure & The Symphony. and home ports of the Freedom. If you have plans on cruising from / visiting San Juan on 2020 please verify ahead of time. IMHO, This a mayor blow to the PR cruising industry and should be reconsidered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted November 26, 2019 #2 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Whole thread, growing, on RCL board. Appears there's some dissention regarding the new port managers. But could be anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aviator of the Seas Posted November 26, 2019 #4 Share Posted November 26, 2019 2020 and through April 2021 sailings; NO CHANGE, NO CANCELLATIONS, per RCI. I've said mu peace (piece?) on the above mentioned Royal Caribbean board thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krazykohns Posted November 26, 2019 #5 Share Posted November 26, 2019 (edited) @Aviator of the Seas and @MrLacox I think its good to keep it in the San Juan board too.. We're sailing out of SJU in February on NCL and are closely watching what is going on just incase. Just my opinion.

MrLacox Posted November 26, 2019 Author #6 Share Posted November 26, 2019 A local political storm is brewing due to this news. The cat is out of the bag and rumors are picking up regarding that CCL, MSC and NCL might follow suit. Lets hope for the best and watch how it unfolds.

K2play Posted November 27, 2019 #7 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I saw an article today about this. https://www.cruisehive.com/cruise-ship-visits-to-san-juan-puerto-rico-are-being-canceled/35941 I love San Juan. Sure hope they work this out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrLacox Posted December 3, 2019 Author #8 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Hi !! Just a quick update on this topic. A local newscast revealed a letter from Michael Bayley (RCI president) stating that they were unsuccessful on their multiple attempts to initiate discussions regarding this topic with local authorities. As a consequence, the local port authority director had to submit his resignation yesterday. Cruises affected will be for the 5/21 - 4/22 season. Finally the truth is surfacing. So who's fault was it ?? IMHO not RCI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
