Hurricane Gabrielle threat ??

[iadizfans]

I know… too early to know if or how this storm will affect cruises in the eastern Caribbean. It’s not even a tropical depression yet let alone a hurricane. But the models are starting to move this thing into that area. We have the Treasure booked 9/13 - 9/20 (7 day eastern Caribbean).

I was on the 08/16 sailing and ended up with a Western itinerary (we found out the morning before embarkation).

if it does, the ships will adjust, you will be safe

keep an eye on the National Hurricane Center https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/

Yeah I trust that they (cruise lines) will make the right decisions related to this storm. Hopefully it forms early and turns north away from civilization

I'll be cruising from Sept19 to Sept24 but in the Bahamas, could Disney relocate that elsewhere just like they usually do for Eastern/Western cruises ?

Yep! HOTHS cruise I have a 5night at WDW before our cruise.
Hopefully everything will be OK, it is still 15 days away.

15 days is a lot in hurricane days

It really is…. This storm is modeled to be tracked for quite a while. It’s a real slow moving storm

 

[Disnsyncey]

it's still a red blob for me and not even named yet, so.......

Yes, Disney could send the ship in a direction away from the storm, which could involve changing or just skipping ports.

I'd make sure that any private excursions and pre/post cruse plans you've booked have a good cancellation policy and that you know how to find information about using any travel insurance you have, in case your arrival or departure dates change. (Once the storm has been officially named, it will be too late to purchase travel insurance if you don't already have it.) Other than that, there's nothing you need to do -- just hope the storm stays away from the path of the ship, and know that the ship will change course if it doesn't.
