Review summary

We went on our cruise for our honeymoon.  The only negative thing that occurred was when someone became ill and needed off the ship before we reached our first port of call, Jamaica. The captain came on the loudspeaker and was hard to understand and was extremely matter of fact and unapologetic about the schedule change.  We of course understood and was supportive of the ill person getting off the boat asap, but the way it was handled we were not happy about it.  Instead of Jamaica our first port of call was changed to Roatan, which was beautiful.  My complaint is that for some reason instead of shortening our first port of call they shortened our second port of call by 90 minutes which WAS a BIG DEAL due to the fact that our excursion changed times which left us no extra time to do the shopping we had planned on in Grand Cayman.  Grand Cayman was a tender port and the excursion team was meeting on the ship so we couldn't get off the ship to shop and make it back in time without risking being late for our excursion.  We wound up canceling our Sting Ray excursion that I was so excited about and went shopping instead.  In my opinion there was no good reason for our second port of call to be shortened.  I can see why the first port of call would need to be changed, but not our second.

Agree with you, no reason to shorten it!!! Hopefully someone from the carnival line will read this! If enough people will comment maybe something will be changed next time this occurs! Good luck! VicRob

Too bad the Captain was unapologetic trying to get an ill passenger to port for medical treatment, how rude of him

Should have skipped the shopping and gone for the stingrays. My thoughts. Either way you now have a reason to return. I look for those all the time. cheers!
