Passengers on cruise ship confused after Caribbean trip becomes Canadian vacation

Cruise passengers fuming after trip to Florida, Bahamas reroutes to Boston

Travelers readying for a tropical vacation were left out in the cold this weekend when their cruise ship headed to Florida and the Bahamas was rerouted to Boston due to inclement weather.

Passengers aboard MSC Cruises’ Meraviglia ship were left stunned on Sunday and some even “thought it was a joke” when they were told that instead of enjoying warm weather and the beach, the ship would now be sailing up to Boston, Maine and Canada.
“The guy helping us with our luggage said, ‘You’re going to Canada,'” said passenger Girish Keswani “We all laughed it off.”
"Ha ha ha! Who needs a beach coverup when you can rock one of the flimsy ponchos that MSC Cruises was giving out?"

Instead of Florida and the Bahamas, the ship will remain docked in Boston through Tuesday before heading to Portland, Maine and Saint John, Newfoundland before returning to New York.

Did they get on the boat in New York or Miami? You have to be kind of dumb to think you're getting on a cruise of the bahamas in New York.

Those people probably thought they got a great deal, but instead of St Croix they are going to st John

Can't post images.
Have to resort to Twitter to show what the cruise ship looks like.

New York

It would take a better part of the week to get from New York to the Caribbean, only an idiot would think a cruise of the Caribbean began in New York.

It seemed like it was going to the Bahamas but bad weather rerouted the trip.

“To ensure the safety and well-being of everyone onboard, we will sail to New England and Canada instead, where we expect to encounter fairer weather conditions that will allow us to offer you the pleasant cruise experience that you expect,” the message read."

"While trying to avoid powerful winds and heavy rain in the Bahamas, the Meraviglia docked in Boston as the city was held under a “damaging winds” alert Sunday. "

Okay, but imagine you packed clothes to go on a Caribbean cruise and now you're suddenly going to the Northeast and Canada. You would have nothing but short sleeves shirts and shorts and definitely no coats in your luggage.

Imagine planning on visiting a country with great people, rich culture, great food and amazing history and instead you end up in Canada.

They boarded in New York. Should have coats.

To be fair to Canada they are doing their best to bring in non-whites to add some flair to their cuisine.

Don’t you think they were wearing warmer clothes and coats when they got on the boat and that they also prepared for the travel through the cold to get to the Bahamas?

Clearly someone has never had poutine.

But ya, LOL , I live in Canada and if you were thinking fun in the sun you got another thing coming.

I bet there will be almost zero legal recourse for them to take which will result in fair compensation. At best, they might get the cost of the tickets refunded.

Well this kind of happens all the time, cruise ships reserve the right to change itineraries at any time for any reason. They’ll probably offer passengers future cruise credits toward another cruise for the inconvenience.
