Coopdog08 Posted September 6, 2017 #451 Share Posted September 6, 2017 The dangly part the hurricane is going to hit... Several models now pointing eastward. Good for fla and bad for the Carolinas. Fla may be avoided or get another Matthew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpm1973 Posted September 6, 2017 #454 Share Posted September 6, 2017 What port/ports for Liberty and Victory? Both are three night cruises to Nassau only. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom09 Posted September 6, 2017 #455 Share Posted September 6, 2017 What port/ports for Liberty and Victory? I believe Liberty was out of Port Canaveral and Victory was out of Miami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouisianaCruiser4200 Posted September 6, 2017 #456 Share Posted September 6, 2017 I believe Liberty was out of Port Canaveral and Victory was out of Miami. Correct. 3 day cruises don’t leave any room for port deviations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razor_Poke Posted September 6, 2017 #457 Share Posted September 6, 2017 So now I await the decision on Victory/ Sept 11 / Miami. The issue of getting into the airport concerns me as much as the cruise itself, although Delta has already relaxed their cancellation policy.

Southerngirl279 Posted September 6, 2017 #460 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Last year aug 28 we were heading out of New Orleans on Carnival Dream for 7 days to Key West & Bahamas. Right before we boarded they made the announcement that we were going to Cozumel due to Hurricane Hermine. We knew there was a good chance it would happen. Let's face it, I'd rather do that than have people barfing everywhere with rough seas. So here we are again, same itinerary, heading out Sept 10th. I know there's no way we're heading to florida, unless this thing takes a sharp north turn & stays out of the gulf. Here's hoping we go somewhere interesting that I haven't seen. I feel for all of you that have your departure ports being hit. We were breathing a sigh of relief that New Orleans didn't get hit last week. Maybe we just aren't meant to make it to the Keys. Good Luck to everyone. I do think that Carnival will keep everyone safe & do what's best. I know they're a huge organization but it must be a logistical nightmare when something this big hits & there's so many moving parts changing itineraries at ports. Everyone stay safe.

I'm booked to fly down early Sunday. But the person I was going to stay with might be leaving FL herself... So... Yeah a decision would be nice to know. I don't want her to feel obligated to stay because of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bUU Posted September 6, 2017 #463 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Several models now pointing eastward. Good for fla and bad for the Carolinas. Fla may be avoided or get another Matthew.So Carnival cancels two three-night cruises, just like Royal Caribbean, and left their options open for the longer weekend cruises the day after to watch to see if the track changes today. Even the projected path to the west has the storm slowing so much that the Saturday cruises could embark without a hitch. I suspect they'll make a decision about that either today or tomorrow.

DustinC89 Posted September 6, 2017 #465 Share Posted September 6, 2017 This is my wife and I's first cruise and our honeymoon. If Carnival decided to sail on Monday late will they give people an option to say no and rebook for a later cruise? We are just upset about a shorter cruise and the fact the water is going to be rough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that the seas will be rough would probably not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad1972 Posted September 6, 2017 #468 Share Posted September 6, 2017 St. Maarten early this morning as the eye wall passed through and then they lost power. They took a direct hit on this one. The eye of Irma is directly over St. Marteen as of this posting. Less then an hour they're going to be back in it again on the back side of the eye wall. Hope St. Maarten is still there after passes.

Rare crewsweeper Posted September 6, 2017 #469 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Latest from Weather Underground. Note the forecasted track changes, not exactly good for Florida's Eastern coast and for Charleston. https://www.wunderground.com/hurricane/atlantic/2017/hurricane-irma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bUU Posted September 6, 2017 #470 Share Posted September 6, 2017 However, it surely seems like the projected storm path has been slowed significantly, and that makes a big difference for Port Canaveral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Atlantic "hurricane season" runs from June 1 to November 30 this year. That's a whole lot of US/East coast folks whose only cruising options land in 'hurricane season'.

That's a whole lot of US/East coast folks whose only cruising options land in 'hurricane season'. Thank you, we booked due to our wedding this was the next available cruise. I did a western Caribbean due to hurricane season knowing it was a possibility. Comments like these are not helping anyone's situation. We are in NC and driving but I do feel for the ones that are planing on flying in. At this point in time I am ok with either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imouer Posted September 6, 2017 #474 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Yeah I'm really over this crap. We're supposed to be doing in eastern Caribbean trip and now I'm hearing that it's likely will do a Western Caribbean trip. I've been to the west four times already including six months ago and I really do not care to go back I just want my money back Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we can rebook our suite for the November 25 sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
