I just got an email for the upcoming APEX Nov 13th sailing and our Grand Cayman stop has been changed to a Sea Day. Not a terrible thing to have another relaxing day at sea, but I was hoping to do some diving in GC. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to book another cruise! I am on Millennium sailing 11 NOV and it is our only stop on a four day sail, no emails. yet that the port has changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO that's sort of thing is far more appropriate for Royal Carribean, Norwegian or Carnival Guppy99 I agree....I would keep both feet on the ship with ya.

megfla Posted October 6, 2021 #31 Share Posted October 6, 2021 The itinerary for our Nov 19 Equinox sailing has replaced Grand Cayman with Jamaica. At least on the X website, when you look up the sailing. The app still shows Grand Cayman on Day 3 and Nassau on Day 2. The listing of "Modified Sailings" does not show this change yet, so who knows?

gerelmx Posted October 6, 2021 #32 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Is X refunding the port fees because they replace GC by day at sea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeaBag Posted October 6, 2021 #33 Share Posted October 6, 2021 We have always had the port fees returned when a port was cancelled and replaced by a sea day. Jeju island comes to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the heads-up on that. I see that Cozumel is on the cruise planner now but that the sailing still is titled "Grand Cayman" and the app has not updated. I'm sure all will be taken care of in due course. I'm actually in Cozumel today (on board Summit). 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been to Grand Cayman a lot in the past few years but haven't been to Jamaica since I stayed there over 20 years ago. So glad it wasn't Nassau, ugh.

WestCoastFlyer Posted October 7, 2021 #39 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Equinox for January 21 replaced GC with Falmouth Jamaica. I expected a change but Jamaica certainly wasn't on the list.

phoenix_dream Posted October 11, 2021 #44 Share Posted October 11, 2021 What's curious to me is that some cruises have received alternative ports or days at sea, while other cruises (some sailing before the changed ones) still show Grand Cayman. Not sure why that is. I suspect it may be that sometimes the logistics of finding another option are harder on some sailings than others due to conflicts with other ships (Celebrity or other lines). Hope that is the reason as I have a couple upcoming cruises where it is still listed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EatonDoolittle Posted October 11, 2021 #45 Share Posted October 11, 2021 They appear to be making change decisions on a ship-by- ship basis. Equinox is getting Falmouth, according to the above posts, and a Roll Call poster for early Feb. on Constellation reports that their previous sailing (late Jan.) is replacing GC with Roatan. They were notified via an email. I'm speculating here, but maybe since Constellation is smaller, it is less hassle in the tender port of Roatan than Equinox would be (?). I am also in CG in mid-Feb on Constellation, and I must say, I would prefer Roatan to Falmouth, or even GC. Oh, the suspense.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are in the same boat for the Nov 20 Reflection Cruise. While I have no idea what they sub for GC, I fully expect Key West to become an At-Sea day. My guess is, Celebrity would prefer to cruise to Cozumel at half throttle & save the money on gas. I even told the other half to book a spa day bc I'm confident we aren't stopping anywhere that first day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've been replacing Key West with Nassau on other itineraries AND they've been replacing Grand Cayman with Nassau. I sure hope we don't double-dip Nassau!

kearney Posted October 13, 2021 #50 Share Posted October 13, 2021 I wonder why Key West is cancelled... I know GC had concerns about Covid..but I thought Fl legislature over ruled Key West ban... I wonder if they are reducing the number of ships going there to help satisfy residents...vs total removal from the schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
