Historically BN cruises have very rarely stopped on SXM because it is too many people for Club O to handle. I remember one in the past few years that did stop on SXM when we were on island. The Club O beach that day was out of control. BEFORE Irma, there just weren't enough chairs for people and Papagayo and the Perch couldn't handle the food load. Now, with only the Perch Lite, and as of now, almost nothing else open on Orient either, there's NO WAY that they could handle a big ship. Maybe, just maybe, a small ship like Star Clipper or something. But unless the ship provided food, which I don't know how they could legally do that, it just can't happen right now. And Papagayo isn't scheduled to reopen until sometime next year, so even by when this cruise is scheduled to go, Papagayo wouldn't be open.
