My TA just called me to let me know that the Grand Princess western caribbean itinerary will substitute Play del Carmen for Grand Caymen. This will give more time at Playa and other ports and Princess is giving $75 pp shipboard credit

Known that for about 2 weeks now. Port fees, too many ships there and high seas are why the Grand isn't going there anymore this season.

I called Princess 2 weeks ago and they told me Grand Caymen was still a go. I find it interesting thta they are not straight with PX.

I am supposed to go to Cozumel, Grand Caymen, Jamaica, and Princess Cay next month on the Star. Why is the Grand not going to Grand Caymen? Will the Star also switch itineraries?

CP says it's because of crowds, high port fees and rough water. I have heard this on other boards too. Not sure how the Star will be impacted.

I haven't heard if they are changing any of the other ships or not.

You won't miss anything except high prices. If you want to swim with the stingrays, there are other ports to do this in. Grand Cayman has no bargains, believe me.

Playa Del Carmen is nice, we had a great time there. There is some great info here Playa Del Carmen Info and tours

we booked the beach horseback riding and wow, the beach and horses were incredible, we spent the day there, beach to our selves, total paradise

Try this one also...www.playa.info ...click on the forum & check with James (owner) about their tours...They offer some of the best excursions you'll find on any island

Playa is also one of my top 10 places to go...#1 is St.Maarten
