The announcement was made in communications sent to guests who had bookings and travel agents.<br \/>\nThe Announcement read: \u201cDue to a change in our itinerary planning for our 2024-025 winter sailings, we are removing Labadee, Haiti from our Celebrity Apex sailings.\u201d<br \/>\nInitially, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cruisebooking.com\/ships\/celebrity-apex\">Celebrity Apex<\/a> was slated to visit Royal Caribbean\u2019s private destination during its various week-long itineraries to the Western and Eastern Caribbean. However, the plans have been altered, and the ship will now call at other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cruisebooking.com\/destinations\/caribbean\">Caribbean<\/a> locations, such as Nassau in the Bahamas and Grand Turk in Turks and Caicos. Some itineraries will substitute Labadee with visits to Perfect Day at CocoCay, Royal Caribbean&#8217;s private island in the Bahamas.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-lg-6 offset-lg-3\">\n<div class=\"articles-video-new\">\n        <iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen class=\"hide\" frameborder=\"0\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2suXM-TvBAg?rel=0&#038;controls=1&#038;showinfo=0&#038;modestbranding=1\" title=\"YouTube video player\"><\/iframe>\n      <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The company expressed regret for any inconvenience caused by these itinerary changes and thanked its guests for their understanding. It was also mentioned that any shore excursions pre-purchased for Labadee would be automatically refunded to the passengers\u2019 original method of payment.<br \/>\nThe Celebrity Apex, departing from Fort Lauderdale, is scheduled to operate a series of six to seven-night cruises during the winter of 2024-25. These week-long itineraries include various Caribbean ports of call such as Puerto Rico, St. Maarten, Grand Cayman, St. Kitts, the Dominican Republic, Key West, and others.<br \/>\nAfter completing its season in early March 2025, the cruise ship, built in 2020 and part of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cruisebooking.com\/cruise-lines\/celebrity-cruises\">Celebrity Cruises<\/a>\u2019 Edge Class, is planned to undertake a trans-Atlantic crossing followed by a drydock in Europe. The ship is expected to spend the summer of 2025 in Northern Europe before returning to the Caribbean later that year.<br \/>\nLabadee has been excluded from itineraries since March 2024, primarily due to political unrest in Haiti.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Celebrity Cruises has announced the cancellation of scheduled stops at Labadee, Haiti, for the Celebrity Apex as part of its itinerary adjustments for the 2024-2025 winter sailings.
