@TheaFromCDA Very good summary of our “adventures”. 
Ship feels empty and bars are readily available. The best usage of drinking package ever . That’s a good part. 
About compensation. Despite informing us less than 24 hours from sailing time,   they were underlining that we are getting credit for missing Coco Cay (one day based on your fare). No mention of lost opportunities to visit NASA, Orlando or Nassau. Since we are on casino offer, paying only taxes and upgrade I’m expecting nice handshake and sincere too bad so sad attitude. 
Wondering why so different from the cruise few months ago rerouted to Eastern Canada. We should get mail with the details tomorrow.

I’m interested to see if they’ll offer more...I doubt it though.

I did hear from some passengers that some that were in interior cabins were upgraded to balconies after complaining. (They were moved Day 3/ when we sailed).

I didn’t try to upgrade since I don’t know if they would’ve given us a Junior Suite (which would’ve been the step up from where we were.)

I know for safety purposes, RCCL can reroute last minute but I feel like those 2 nights/ 3 days in NJ...and really only 1 port  deserves more than just a 1 day credit but maybe I’m just being to hopeful.

Having never sailed out of NJ, I think I have met equal parts fellow Canadians on this trip than I have Americans...quite a number of Brits too.

Based on an unscientific poll, those that stayed on this were in a similar situation to us that by the time we received notices, most of us were already in route or in the NJ area and couldn’t have cancelled.
