ROYAL Caribbean has cancelled all of this year’s scheduled visits to Labadee, its private destination in Haiti, impacting dozens of itineraries across 12 of the line’s ships.
The decision was made due to ongoing civil unrest and widespread violent crime in the Caribbean country, which has been in a state of emergency since 2024.
Royal Caribbean has replaced Labadee with an alternative port on most itineraries, however some have been swapped out for a sea day.
The cruise line also scrapped calls into the Haitian port for several months in 2024, and again in 2025 (CW 04 Aug).
