Updates of efforts to bring relief and reconstruction to Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands

 

The crew of the Coast Guard Cutter Venturous, a 210-foot medium-endurance cutter homeported in St. Petersburg, Florida, arrives to deliver aid near the port of Ponce, Puerto Rico, Wednesday, Sept. 27, 2017, in Ponce, Puerto Rico. The crew delivered food and supplies to the Federal Emergency Management Agency and local law enforcement officials who will distribute the aid to the victims of Hurricane Maria.

Puerto Ricans prepare to board the Adventure of The Seas to evacuate the destroyed island.
Royal Caribbean loads up pallet loads of generators to send on the Adventure of The Seas to Puerto Rico.

From Royal Caribbean: The Caribbean is our home, and we’re doing everything we can to help impacted islands get back on their feet. Today, Adventure of the Seas arrived in San Juan with medical teams, relief supplies, and 500 generators to help our friends in Puerto Rico. From there, Adventure will head to St. Thomas and St. Croix to drop off much-needed supplies. With the assistance of local government, Adventure will also pick up almost 3,000 evacuees from these islands, including families of our employees, and bring them back to Fort Lauderdale. Our work isn’t done here. We’re matching up to $1 million for every donation we receive. For more info on how you can get involved, visit: http://bit.ly/2xWkf7i

Read these comments posted on the Royal Caribbean Facebook page for Adventure of the Seas as customers of the cruise line school the cruise line on their refusal to reschedule cruises.

Royal Caribbean passengers beg cruise line to speed up rescheduling of voyages, pointing out the flights and hotels of those taking Adventure of The Seas cruises are unavailable.  This is from Facebook:

Weather & Itinerary Update

September 25, 2017 @ 11 AM EDT

Our thoughts and prayers are with our neighbors in San Juan and the other affected islands as they rebuild after Hurricanes Irma and Maria.

The following sailing is being canceled:

Adventure of the Seas: September 30

Given the impact of Hurricane Maria, we are canceling this cruise to utilize the ship for evacuation and humanitarian efforts. The ship will arrive on Wednesday, September 27 and will operate humanitarian calls in San Juan, St. Thomas and St. Croix to aid in the evacuation and donate critical supplies to each destination. The ship will bring evacuees to Fort Lauderdale before returning to San Juan on October 6 to prepare for the October 7th cruise.

We are very sorry for the impact this storm has had on your vacation. The cruise fare and fees will be 100% refunded to the original form of payment, and we are also offering a 25% future cruise credit, based on the cruise fare if a new cruise is booked in the next 30 days. Pre-booked shore excursions will also be refunded to your original form of payment.

Future itineraries:

Given Hurricane Irma’s impact to St. Maarten and St. Thomas, as well as Hurricane Maria’s impact to San Juan, we are altering the following ports for future sailings until these islands have fully recovered.

As the recovery effort remains fluid and each island is working diligently to get back to normal operations, we will continue to communicate any port changes approximately four weeks prior to departure.

Adventure of the Seas:
10/7 – St. Croix to Martinique
10/14 – St. Croix to Antigua

Allure of the Seas:
10/1 – St. Thomas & San Juan to Cozumel & Costa Maya
10/15 – St. Maarten & San Juan to Cozumel & Costa Maya

Enchantment of the Seas:
10/2 & 10/9 – Freeport back to Key West

Harmony of the Seas:
10/7 – St. Maarten, San Juan & Labadee to Nassau, Cozumel & Costa Maya
10/21 – St. Thomas, San Juan & Labadee to Nassau, Cozumel & Costa Maya

Serenade of the Seas:
10/20 – St. Thomas & St. Maarten to St. Kitts & Antigua
Oasis of the Seas:
10/8 – St. Maarten, San Juan & Labadee to Nassau, Cozumel & Costa Maya
10/22 – St. Maarten & San Juan to Nassau & Falmouth

Maxine Ryan

Maxine Ryan: Why doesn’t Royal Caribbean change their port to Miami in place of San Juan for adventure of the seas ship ? It would help the cruise line. Maybe consider adding a day to future cruises. It will take months for Puerto Rico to get all restored

Victoria Polk Royal Caribbean International thank you for helping those in need in Pr and other islands. So we have a group of 22 leaving October 28 on AOS. So I know you don’t want to call it yet and change the Port to Fl, but if you did it now you give your passengers the chance and opportunity to change their plans (flights) to Fl also the opportunity for them to get hotel arrangements too. And gives you the opportunity to focus on your humanity acts for those in PR…… maybe for upper management you could show them the comments on this page and this would motivate them to make a change…..

San Juan harbor is allowing daytime transit only. But with airport radar wiped out, they are allowing only 10 planes a day. You think the airlines bringing cruise passengers to the port with zero infrastructure is going to be given a priority slot over evacuation and aid??? Delusional.
