greatam Posted October 7, 2007 #2 Share Posted October 7, 2007 A huge typhoon just hit China making me wonder about cruising in the fall. Is springtime better? :confused: I have been in China in October, November, January, February, April and July. Every time period was OK EXCEPT July. ABSOLUTELY horrible. And I have been in Japan in October, November and December. I have always wanted to go in the Spring to see the cherry blossoms, but have never had a business trip during that time. Typhoons are just like hurricanes-some years, they are bad and some years-you would hardly notice it is typhoon season. Like anything else, there are risks involved. But you should be fine in the fall. Most cruises are in the fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spikesgirl Posted October 7, 2007 #3 Share Posted October 7, 2007 I will concur with Greatam - we went in July and August - Hell has nothing on China in July! I would think that spring would be just about right, but it also depends upon when the cruises are offered. Try April - that should be warm and not too humid. We encountered a typhoon during our cruise and the captain just waited it out in Hong Kong. All we ever saw of storm were some fabulous sunsets.

SarasMommy Posted October 8, 2007 #4 Share Posted October 8, 2007 I would definitely say April is the perfect time. Not too warm, and the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
