Beloved cruise spot will be off limits through 2027 as safety concerns linger

Fox News · 2 months ago

Royal Caribbean has extended its suspension of visits to Labadee, its private beach resort on Haiti's northern coast, through June 2027, leaving passengers questioning whether the popular stop will reopen at all. The decision reflects ongoing safety concerns tied to instability in Haiti, forcing the cruise line to continue rerouting itineraries away from a destination long favoured for its beaches and adventure attractions.

Labadee is known for its white-sand beaches and the Dragon's Breath Flight Line, one of the world's longest over-water ziplines, making it a significant draw for Royal Caribbean's Caribbean sailings. The extended suspension marks another year added to a pause that has already kept the resort off limits, underlining the persistence of security concerns in the region and the cruise line's caution in restoring the stop to its schedules.

  • Royal Caribbean extends Labadee, Haiti suspension through June 2027.
  • Safety concerns in Haiti are behind the continued closure.
  • Labadee is famed for beaches and a long over-water zipline.
