Royal Caribbean Extends Cancellation of Haiti Port Visits

MIAMI, FL—Royal Caribbean has announced an extension of its suspension of ship arrivals at its private island port in Haiti, Labadee, due to persistent violence in the region. Initially, stops at the port were canceled through May; however, the company has now extended these cancellations into September.

The decision follows a series of disruptions that started in March, driven by civil unrest in Haiti. Royal Caribbean has modified its summer and early fall cruise schedules to exclude visits to Labadee, affecting guests booked on these voyages.

Travelers affected by these changes are currently being notified by Royal Caribbean about the cancellation of port visits scheduled for the upcoming months.
