Like many, I received the email from Royal regarding the change due to the NO authorization of the authorities in Grand Cayman to receive cruises.
I called Royal and I received the refund for the shores excursions I booked for Grand Cayman.
Well, for me this new destination ( Bimini), is not compere to Gran Cayman.
I am not excited about this change of destiny. I understand that for major reasons the stop in Grand Cayman is canceled. But I can't accept that Royal Caribbean couldn't find another destination like Coco Key for example.
Bimini can be a beautiful island, but for families with children or for seniors it does not look attractive.
I called Royal today to get cabins on the other ship leaving the same day and I had no chance. They couldn't get me a cabin at similar prices.
It's frustrating for me, as I chose this trip to take my mother on a cruise for her first time and on her birthday. We are a group of 8 adult people. The truth is that we prefer to cancel this trip.
I regret not being able to switch to another ship with another destination even though Royal may either compensate us for this change or take us to a better destination.
I am impressed that they are still offering this destination on this cruise and on the same day knowing that "Grand Cayman" is not going to be one of their stops.
*See attached.
I hope the Grand Cayman authorities change their mind and reopen their port.
