Royal Caribbean keeps it classy and makes a cruise's planned stop at Labadie, a resort village that the cruise line leases on the northern coast of Haïti.
Was Royal Caribbean worried about potential lawsuits from passengers upset that their exact itinerary wasn't followed? Did the ship need a refueling with no other ports in range? Did the ship need repairs that required it to dock there for any period longer than it would take to deliver some relief supplies to the country?
Dig the last two paragraphs of the article there, where CEO Adam Goldstein defends the stop with the trickle-down theory that the debarking passengers will "generat[e] economic activity for the straw market vendors [and] the hair-braiders."
