Creator's Key Takeaways
Royal Caribbean officially confirmed it's dropping all Labadee visits through the end of 2026.
The money is going towards traffic fixes, better lighting, sidewalks, bike lanes, and even studying a possible flyover from Interstate 45 straight into the port.
What I will say to you, cruisers, is leave early, check traffic apps, and please don't miss that sailing.
