I don't think that is correct, but I could be wrong. We did dock at all ports on our Eastern, but I think there is a rotation in St. Maarteen since there aren't enough docks spaces. Something like every 4th cruise has to tender in.
Can anyone who has cruised recently add any information?
I'm pretty sure most of the time DCL docks at all Eastern Ports. There was a time that they used to occasionally tender at St Thomoas, but several years ago we were told by an officer that the Mouse didn't like that and since they the Magic has docked. We've only done the eastern twice, but we've docked at all ports.
