Seems Royal Caribbean will be home-porting a ship at Barbados.

OP, from your avatar, it looks like you are a Carnival guy, but there is lots of chatter about this on both the Royal Caribbean and Celebrity main boards. 

Lots of interest,  especially the 14 day itinerary.

Many have booked, including myself.

Carnival enthusiast or not

I'm just glad for any opportunity to board ship at Barbados

(15 mins. away from my house)

-and not have to mess with airplanes and airports!
THAT ^ is a big deal in my world!

Might you share your secret of how your cruise profile is still working on Cruise Critic?

We are booked on the Grandeur of the Seas departing on 4/17/22. We have reservations one night prior at the Raddison Aquatica.  I'm hoping someone can recommend a transfer service to get four adults and our luggage from the airport to the hotel and the from the cruise port back to the airport. I'm assuming we can get assistance at the Raddison to get us to the port.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
