Review summary

The cruise started out well and Havana was pretty amazing. After our second day in Havana, it was clear Royal Caribbean did zero contingency planning. Due to weather, the ship was docked in Havana for longer, what they didn't tell anyone, is the currency exchange closes and they only a limited list of night activities (two very expensive cabaret shows). There was no contingency port to Cozumel. Then didn't have an alternative sail path to get us out of the storm, and they didn't open up extra activities on board to keep us entertained while were stuck inside. How difficult would it be to have trivia last two hours instead of an hour. How difficult is it to show movies? How difficult is it to play an extra couple games of Bingo. Royal Caribbean dropped the ball royally, and unfortunately, I likely will not go on a Cruise again (perhaps even if it's free).
