Azura unscheduled port

[msk1955]

Does anyone know why Azura is now docked in Martinique?  According to her current itinerary, she should be under way from Bridgetown to St Kitts.  Hope it's not a medical emergency detour.

Either a medical emergency or a technical problem.  Or something odd at another port.  Interestingly, she's not due to leave there until 0545 tomorrow morning (GMT)

Well it is rather odd.  She left Barbados for St Vincent, then should have been a day at sea before St Kitts.  So that's all changed, 24 hours in Martinique.

Ventura has also changed ports. Should have been in Barbados today but has gone to St Vincent instead. Aurora is also sailing at full speed and is expected to dock in Barbados later this evening, well ahead of schedule.

St Vincent was cancelled yesterday because of the weather, so she went to Martinique today and back on track tomorrow for St Kitts.

And this is when the Caribbean is supposed to be at its best, weather-wise 😮

We have just got off Azura last Friday and we had a change of timings and arrived in Bridgetown at around 1ish (the captain said I was fast asleep at the time), This was due to high winds and the sea swell, all day Friday was very windy so I would think the changes are weather related.

I've just looked at ship tracker and it now looks as if Azura is headed away from St Kitts and it says it's next destination is Philipsburg St Maarteen, nothing as yet has docked in St Kitts and there is a couple of ships going to St Kitts

I gather from a friend currently on Britannia that there are storms with high winds in the Caribbean at the moment affecting itineraries...

Auroras change of schedule was due to a medical emergency
