I would like to know why passengers are not allow to go Cap Haitien when they are in Labadee.

I think some of those animals who human faces make it so because they only have one goal in mine; make Haiti looks bad in the eyes of other nations.

Those people who like to take the street to breaks cars windows/burn tires and look stupid have nothing good in mine for our country.

It is very sad to see a cruise ship arrives in Labadee with 6000 people and yet
they can not go to town to see and buy stuff from the locals

In 1995 I visited Labadee on a Royal Caribbean cruise.

Back then they didn't have the Dragon's Breath Flight line and a lot of the other new features.

Nevertheless, I had a great time on the beach there.

The Haitian crafts people were very nice and their merchandise was wonderful.
