The cruise line has angered locals in one cruise destination as it takes steps to kick off a big port project.

Tropical Cyclone Alfred is expected to make landfall in Brisbane on late Friday or early Saturday, causing several ships from Carnival, Royal Caribbean and others to stay far from the area until the storm passes.

Some passengers have been surprised that they like one of the cruise line’s private destinations much more than the other.

Royal Caribbean hears from its loyal passengers when the cruise line makes a move they don't like. Many "Loyal to Royal" cruisers, for example, have expressed their displeasure with the cruise line's recent decision to move most of its Oasis-Class ships to shorter 3- and 4-day sailings.
