ATLCanuck Posted February 3, 2008 #1 Share Posted February 3, 2008 This article did not have specific dates - has anyone heard when this port will re-open? Our March 15th cruise is going to Cozumel instead. Think it'll be open by then?:rolleyes: Home > Cruise News > Costa Maya Reopening Three Months Ahead of Schedule January 16, 2008Costa Maya Reopening Three Months Ahead of ScheduleThe Port of Costa Maya, which took a major hit from Hurricane Dean in August 2007, is on the rebound and coming back faster than anticipated. According to an official statement, the reconstruction of berthing spaces one and two is now 58 percent complete -- and both will be ready to receive cruise ships three months earlier than originally expected (no exact date was given). A third position is also being rebuilt, to be finished after the summertime reopening. In the interim, Costa Maya will only welcome ships at its fully operational berths. The port will not tender in additional passengers, in order to focus on reconstruction and recovery while still operating at two-thirds capacity. At this point, we do not know which cruise lines will be first to return. Negotiations are underway, according to the statement, and a new schedule should be finalized and available by the beginning of February. We'll keep you posted. --by Melissa Baldwin, Managing Editor Thanks....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClerkPatsy Posted February 3, 2008 #2 Share Posted February 3, 2008 I've read that the original date was September '08. So, that would mean June?? And that is only for two ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
