Power Outage Affects Guests on Royal Caribbean's Adventure of the Seas
If you're sailing on Adventure of the Seas' current 8-night Southern Caribbean itinerary (Port Canaveral, departed September 4, returning September 12), the schedule hasn't changed: Cabo Rojo, Dominican Republic on Monday, Oranjestad, Aruba on Tuesday, and Willemstad, Curacao on Wednesday remain as planned. No cause or compensation has been announced, so check for updates from Royal Caribbean directly if you have concerns before boarding.
A shipwide power loss right before dinner on Adventure of the Seas is the kind of moment that spreads fast on social media before the cruise line says a word — Cruise Hive notes it reached out to Royal Caribbean and got no response by publication. Guests restored their own peace of mind faster than the company did, using phone flashlights and posting to Facebook and Reddit that power was back in about 30 minutes. My read is this is mechanically unremarkable — Radiance of the Seas and Caribbean Princess both had similar brief outages earlier in 2026 — but the silence from Royal Caribbean on cause is what keeps these stories alive. No injuries, no itinerary change, no explanation offered onboard. If I were sailing this ship's remaining six nights to Cabo Rojo, Aruba and Curacao, I'd treat it as a footnote, not a red flag.
