Review summary

Been reading reviews seems Mariner has had a history of 'medical emergencies" and turning back to the main land. Why do they have a Helipad if they are not going to use it? I am thinking never again on Royal

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island) Did not visit port

We just did loops of the Florida coast and have several "medical emergencies" ended up in Nassau, the one port I try to avoid

We did the breakfast and left at our leisure, very easy getting off and couldn't wait to get home to be able to get a good nights sleep

Very disappointed hearing all this bad information about this cruise. I’m very skeptical now on my up coming cruise.

Thanks for sharing your cruise experience. Sorry that it didn’t meet your expectations. I’m sure there were reasons why the injured or sick passengers weren’t airlifted. It’s not just up to Royal or any cruise line/ship to decide how they get transported to medical facilities.
