I was just wondering if anyone has any knowledge of the New Orleans new port and Royal Carribean. Please be warned this was my first cruise in Nov 2011. I still wonder why anyone would pay to have happen to them what happened to us. New Orleans has just opened this new port since Katrina and I wish them well but bring huge cruise ships in a river is a mistake, as the cruise line loaded the luggage the ship went down and they had to wait four hours to get the ship out of the port. Once we left the captain decided to not put the gliders out because we were behind time and they passed out motion sickness medicine like candy. The food was just ok. Please explain to me why anyone would pay money for this?

What ship were you on and what was the date of embarkation? I want to google this.
RCL has second tier ships that leave out of New Orleans
Personally I enjoy neworleansonline.com as a port to cruise
from have done it several times also out of Mobile.
GREAT deals from $199 with a FREE balcony upgrade for me
crusecritic.com has reviews many enjoy these trips.
Seems like you had a rough cruise and too high expectations
These things happen accept and move on...
Do more homework on cruisecritic.com try a he newer ship.
November is storm season in the Gulf if you will check
weather2travel.com next time choose a flatter
cruise in a better month for better experience.
