Hello Jason,
   I can tell you that when we ported at Progresso, I went off the ship to the small souviner shops at the dock, took a few pictures and got back aboard. I to am dissappointed about the Costa Maya port. It actually was my favorite port to just eat, drink and relax on the beach. Carnival says it won't be back until 2009 but Princess will be back in mid to early 2008. Whats with that? After Wilma, cozumel was up and running alot sooner and it substained alot of damage. In my opinion, I think that Carnival is trying to push Progresso as a regular destination for the shorter cruises and revitalize and expand Costa Maya as a larger cruise destination. I too am in the same boat(LOL) you are in. I'm booked on the Fantasy for Feb 9th 2008. I think I'll just stay on the boat and enjoy the jacuzzee.
