A: The person who said Labadee isn't in Haiti is incorrect, it is, in fact, in Haiti. Just not in the area of the unrest. RC hasn't announced where the cruises will be redirected to or if it will be another sea day. The last time Haiti had issues they... just gave us another sea day.See More

A: If it’s on Royal Independence of the seas they take you to Turks and Caicos
Answered by BeachLady1960 on March 18, 2024
A: Per Royal Caribbean Blog.com, they have removed Labadee through the March 14th sailings thus far and have replaced that day with either a sea day, another port, or Cococay. I sail the last week in April and have no word yet of changes. So if you ar... en't sailing until August.. who knows!See More
Answered by cwill9371 on March 20, 2024
A: I believe it depends on what ports can accommodate on the particular day. Otherwise, it will be an additional sea day.
Answered by tri40sh on March 18, 2024
A: They made an announcement that they suspended trips to Labadee
Answered by RoyalCruzer on March 18, 2024

Q: We came a while ago and while eating you could see young kids begging for food on the outside and it was very sad, does anyone know if it’s still like this where you can see the people on the island begging for food?

A: I have no idea where you were able to see this. You cannot even see outside of the cruise port it’s so gated off from actual Haiti.
Answered by Need2CruiseSoon on March 15, 2024
A: Edit: I believe I read in one of my cruise groups on Facebook that they did not stop at labadie so I guess they are not stopping there right now
Answered by enjoyurdaysmile on March 14, 2024
A: We never seen any of that and have been there multiple times no clue what they are talking about
Answered by Mybubba17 on March 17, 2024
A: I read them one of my cruise groups I think it was and they did not go to labadie so obviously that they are skipping that stop
Answered by enjoyurdaysmile on March 14, 2024
A: We couldn't see any streets or local areas, unless you did an excursion that you didn't mention. You walk off the ship onto the private island. There is a separate section where locals sell things but you don't have to go in there. My understanding... is that Royal is skipping this stop for now.See More

A: I have never seen anything like that. We were just there on our January 27 sailing.

A: Labadee is a beach day stop. You can not leave the port area for any exploration.
Answered by TXatsea on December 29, 2023
A: Haiti is not a tourist friendly island currently. Labadee is owned by RC fenced off and guarded to keep everyone safe. The “vetted vendor” area is super aggressive and has guards too. Everything on the island is free as far as beaches, chairs, umbrel... las, food, drinks (with drink package) zip line and such are extra. First beach on left is super rocky. Go in further or go to the beaches on the right side for much easier on the feet.See More
Answered by Bertfish on December 29, 2023
A: Labadee is a private destination in Haiti, leased by Royal Caribbean. There is no access to the main island of Haiti from Labadee for cruise ship guests. When I was there in 2019, I heard a story from a worker that he had to be boated in from where h... e lives to be able to work at Labadee. I usually treat this port stop as a free beach day. You do not have to book anything to enjoy this port.See More

A: Thank you very much for the answers provided!
Answered by Unsubscribemeno on December 29, 2023
A: Labadee is a private island and you are unable to actually leave that port by taxi or anything. It's closed off to the other parts of Haiti. Any and everything you need is right on that island. Excursions, shopping, food, beach, etc.
Answered by Nee on December 28, 2023
A: Haiti is unstable as far as security. They do not let you leave the secure private area owned by Royal Caribbean. It has two separate beach areas and they allow local vendors to sell their wares inside the secure area.
Answered by beachseasand on January 6, 2024
Q: It's been a year since I last heard anything, but wanted to check: are GoPros allowed on the Zipline? I tried the one at Cocoa Cay and loved it so much I did it 2 more times! I got a GoPro specifically for Ziplining and I have a chest strap for it. I assume that's allowed?I'm also still quite nervous about the Zipline,but it's a Bucket List item. My aunt did it on a cruise and loved it, so I'm hoping I will too!

A: When we did the zip line at labadee you could bring your phone. They do recommend you don’t, but you can. Also, it very safe, and awesome!
Answered by Davepb3 on November 20, 2023
A: I can’t answer your question about the GoPro but the Zipline at Labadee is awesome! We will be doing it for the second time this coming May. We haven’t done the one at Cocoa Cay. We’ve gone zip-lining on St Kitts and plan on zip-lining in Roatan a... s well. We love it!See More
Answered by kef2016 on November 20, 2023
A: @CruiseQueenNH- great to hear the recommendation to zip-line there! Thanks! If you get to St Kitts you definitely have to zip-line there! We highly recommend it!
Answered by kef2016 on November 21, 2023
A: yes you can! I took my Go-Pro a few years ago down the zipline with me. you definitely have to do it, you have an amazing view from up top and the zipline is a blast.
Answered by Sassybrat1999 on November 21, 2023
A: @Kef2016, my TA told me today he took his family to Roatan last year and highly recommends the Zipline....a recommendation I fully intend to take!
Answered by CruiseQueenNH on November 20, 2023
A: yes. when we were there last December there were two ladies with motorized scooters having the time of their life! 🙂
Answered by MCPettet on September 21, 2023
A: There are concrete paths around the area. Do a you tube video search about Labadee.
Answered by subman738 on September 20, 2023
A: It is not a tender port as all other islands are for cruise lines. This is different. Have you taken your scooter off ships in the past? There are paths, to drive the scooter..I would call Royal to make sure.
Answered by enjoyurdaysmile on September 13, 2023
A: It is not an island at all. It is a peninsula on the north coast of Haiti, near Cap Hatien on a map. There is a super long pier and roads you can drive on. There is also a shuttle train that can drop you off at the various beaches.
Answered by deboftheseas on September 13, 2023
A: Hop on the free tram and head to the furthest beach area. It's not so quiet that it's boring for the kids, but not so crowded and "party-ish" so you can relax! Plenty of free beach loungers with umbrellas, a bar nearby for drinks (they make mocktails... too), and you still get to enjoy the delicious bbq lunch by RC included!! 😁See More
Answered by mbhaf on August 9, 2023
A: Food, yes. Water and fruit drink, yes. Other drinks you either need to buy or you can use your drink package from the ship.
Answered by diamondplus4lyf on June 10, 2023
A: I know we're talking about Royal Caribbean what Carnival does not have that system set up that you can getdrinks. It is great that Royal Caribbean.

A: enjoyurdaysmile - yeah, my comment was about Royal. I looked up cristopherwilder1's upcoming cruise and saw it was Oasis OTS.
Answered by diamondplus4lyf on June 10, 2023
A: Yes, but be warned the food is not that great. It’s usually started about noonish.
