Guests with sailings booked on Royal Caribbean's Allure of the Seas are receiving emails from the cruise line that their itinerary has changed due to a speed restriction.
Emails similar to this one that Royal Caribbean Blog reader Nathan shared with us, were sent to guests informing them of the itinerary change.
Royal Caribbean has not indicated the nature of the issue exactly. Based on emails sent to guests, it appears the changes mostly affect Eastern Caribbean itineraries, with St. Thomas often being replaced with San Juan, Puerto Rico. Our readers have indicated that Western Caribbean itineraries have mostly seen some shifts in times, but no port swaps.
Allure of the Seas had an issue with her propulsion in 2017, that resulted in the ship going in for a dry dock to repair the problem. She also had a propulsion issue back in 2013.
