Sudden cruise itinerary change leaves some travelers upset, others celebrating 'gigantic win'

Royal Caribbean's cancellation of an Icon of the Seas stop left some cruise passengers hugely disappointed and others wildly celebrating - sparking a debate over whether the port was worth visiting at all.

The vessel was scheduled to depart Miami on Saturday but remained in port until Sunday, according to a Royal Caribbean notice sent to passengers as reported by Parade magazine.

Fox News Digital reached out to the Royal Caribbean Group for comment.

"Just got this. $350 to miss the worst port of the itinerary made my day!" one Redditor said. "Might go to the Supper Club with that, lol."

Wrote another person, "Three hundred dollar credit, and you don't have to go to Costa Maya? That's a gigantic win."

"Given all the Costa Maya comments, I have to ask: What's so bad about that stop?" a Redditor asked.

"It's so [run-down], half empty, and smells," one person said, also complaining about seaweed in the area.

"It's a bit underdeveloped and small," another weighed in. "Nothing much to do really right around the port area."

"My daughter is a bit bummed, as our ruins excursion there was what she was looking forward to the most," one passenger said.
