kittysoul Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 I just read the new post about the 'after dark' festivities coming to the Coco Cay visits .... I am wondering if they will start extending some of the already planned cruises to maybe stay on the island later than originally planned...? I am booked on Harmony for the May 3 sailing, and according to the calendar in the cruise planner, we are to be there on day 2 , from 7am until only 4pm. Day 3 is a sea day and then Day 4 we are scheduled to arrive at PR at 10am. I was just thinking, it would be really nice if we could stay at Coco Cay later than 4pm.... and i wouldn't think that it would take 'that' long to get to Puerto Rico, 2 days later at 10am, that staying later would affect the itenerary.... thoughts?

twangster Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 When the next port of call is distant (like PR) they need to leave on time. When the next port of call is a few hours away, like Nassau or returning to Florida, they can easily delay the departure until the evening.

GregD Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 It’s about 35 hours to get from Coco Cay to Puerto Rico assuming she sails at max speed the whole time. This all based on google, so it could be longer. As twangster said, they need to leave on time for these farther ports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoski Posted October 8, 2019 Report Share Posted October 8, 2019 I sure hope they do. We sail there in January and I'd love to do the nighttime there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pima1988 Posted October 8, 2019 Report Share Posted October 8, 2019 I don't know for your cruise, but for ours before they started doing the "after dark" festivities, we were suppose to leave at 4, but they changed it to 6. I would also add that there maybe another reason they don't stay late...not the only ship in port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted October 8, 2019 Report Share Posted October 8, 2019 I hope they do, but not aware of other sailings yet that will have extended stays. "Yet" is they keyword. I'm guessing they are seeing how this batch goes and then plan accordingly. If nothing else, RC is very observant of guest feedback and relies heavily on it (especially with new offerings) to gauge interest, profitability and if it needs to be tweaked. The Key is a great recent example of this strategy. Fingers crossed more and more sailings get the late night treatment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
