I agree that they should not be stopping at Labadee right now. All you need is a few groups of armed people in small boats descending on a ship while it is docked.  It would be a sitting duck. While this could happen anywhere, there's a greater chance of it happening somewhere in a lawless country regardless of how far it is from the capital. It happens off the coast of Africa, why not at Labadee. They could ask for a ransom or just take everyone's valuables.  They could be in and out before the US Navy gets there.

Thanks so much for your help

Hi, I'm arriving at FLL at 9:30 AM on a Sunday morning for the Allure in a few weeks. We will be 3 adults and 2 kids aged 9 with 5 bags of luggage plus carry-ons and are planning to take a taxi to the port. Will there be taxis at the airport on a Sunday morning that are large enough to fit all of us and our luggage to get us to the port.

Also, I would like to stop somewhere on the way to the port (drugstore, supermarket, etc.) to pick up some soda and water to take on the cruise. Is there a convenient place along the way to the port for the taxi to stop so I can run in to pick up this stuff. Also, would the taxi charge extra for this stop or does the meter just keep running while we're stopped.

Thanks
