Breeze Port Change Starting in June

We did a tour in Ocho with Courtney Taylor Tours. It was ok and since we had never been to Jamaica we enjoyed it but not really impressed with that area. We went to Blue Hole which was fun but basically like a more local, smaller version of Dunns River. If you are into the food, we did stop at Scotchies which had some good food. I had seen it recommended on other posts so wanted it included in the tour.

Taylor will customize a tour to your wishes if that's something you are looking for.

Our cruise next April was changed from Falmouth to Montego Bay. Never been to Jamaica so hope this is a good change. I guess Dunns is out now?

I got an email this AM for Nov 15th and it has changed from Falmouth to Montego Bay. I would not be surprised if all sailings would be changed. There were about 8-9 dates on the letter I got.

too many ships in port... wish they would have changed us to Montego Bay... never been there:rolleyes:

Not too many ships in port. For my cruise in 10 days, we are the only cruise ship in Jamaica - I believe it is an issue between Carnival and Royal Caribbean since Royal basically owns the port jointly with Jamaica.

(I wish I saw this thread before I started a different one 2 minutes ago)

I do not understand why you can not go to Falmouth it is already build it is own by Royal.

Anybody ever find out the reason for the Breeze abandoning Falmouth for what looks like the rest of this year?? Just curious. I'm on the June 14 sailing now rerouted to Montego Bay. I would have preferred Ocho Rios. For my crew, a whole lot more to do around Ocho Rios. Anyone have any good suggestions to do around Montego Bay with 5 kids (ages 10-16)?? Staying on board is our current option.

I am now very confused.....I am booked on 4/3/16 breeze , just spoke to online cruise agent ,who called carnival and she said " your cruise is NOT changing port , still Falmouth, the cruise after You(4/9/2016) is changed" Is 4/3/16 the only one NOT changing???

Many are changing. it could be related to the contract that Carnival has with Royal to use the port since it is owned by Royal. Then i read the post from someone previously that says theres was changed then changed back:eek:

Kinda makes you think... better not book my tours yet...:D

Also, did not get my email... my pvp might have but has not informed me yet....

My friends on the same cruise who booked without a pvp got an email...

Can you remove your pvp from your booking? Thinking of doing this as she has not really been on the ball about informing me of certain things...

.....Is 4/3/16 the only one NOT changing???

Our 3/20/16 cruise has not been changed. I am sort of hoping it is. :-)

How did you receive this letter? We're on the June 28 sailing and I've not gotten this notification.

We got the email Thursday last week. We are also on the June 28 sailing.

Well... About the best I've come up with is the AI at Sunset. There are a few places selling the day passes and one includes transportation from the ship. Rates range from about $60-75 for adults and about $40 for kids up to 12.

We are in a similar situation with 4 kids in our group. I don't know, something about the transportation challenges I've read a lot about doesn't seem like best way to spend a day in port :(. I can't find a lot of info about the hop on/off bus, but not sure that's the best route anyway. On my own is one thing, just not 100% with kids in tow. Not concerned about safety, thinking more about it being a little overwhelming and not a lot of "fun".

OP I am so sorry. We will NEVER go back to Ocho Rios again. We got off the Valor and decided to walk down to the TaJ Mahal? shopping center. The people were so rude. There were 4 adults and one 11 year old. They were so pushy and kept wanting to shove stuff in your hands. We found this port worse then Nassau and I thought Nassau was pretty darn bad.

Does anyone know if the Breeze is still going to Falmouth on the Feb 21 cruise?

Does anyone have a pic of the cove balcony 2288 on the Breeze? I'd love to see any pics if anyone has them.

Oops, meant to start a new thread

just checked my july 12 breeze and going to ocho rios instead of falmouth. no email though

I'm on the Breeze on August 9th and we got changed to Montego Bay along with the 5/31, 6/14, 8/23, 9/06, 11/01, 11/15, and 4/17 sailings. I also got the letter this morning.

4/17/2016? That's the one we just booked. I would love to have Montego Bay!
