Magic due back to PC on Friday 10:30pm

Does this mean they sail with crew only, from Sat morning to Monday?

Looks like Disney is being very pro-active.

Disney Cruise Line® –
Important Information
As of September 24, 2004 - 3:00 pm EST

Unavoidable circumstances created by Hurricane Jeanne have brought about the need to make adjustments to our Disney Wonder and Disney Magic cruises.

Disney Magic Seven-Night Cruise, September 18, 2004
Because the U.S. Coast Guard has closed Port Canaveral, this seven-night cruise will return to Port Canaveral on Friday, September 25, around 10:30 p.m. rather than Saturday morning, September 26. Guests will be provided with accommodations at a Walt Disney World Resort.

Disney Wonder Three-Night Cruise, September 23, 2004
In order to avoid the effects of Hurricane Jeanne, we have extended this three-night cruise to a four-night cruise and modified the itinerary. We will now visit Cozumel, Mexico, on this voyage rather than the Bahamas. The ship will return on Monday, September 27, to Fort Lauderdale’s Port Everglades.

Disney Magic Seven-Night Cruise, September 25, 2004
Because Hurricane Jeanne is impacting Port Canaveral, the Disney Magic will now depart from Fort Lauderdale’s Port Everglades on Monday, September 27, on a five-night voyage. The itinerary will be:

Monday: Depart from Port Everglades
Tuesday: Day at Sea
Wednesday: Cozumel, Mexico
Thursday: Costa Maya, Mexico
Friday: Day at Sea
Saturday: Return to Port Canaveral
Ground transportation will be provided to Fort Lauderdale from Walt Disney World and the Orlando International Airport. In addition, transportation will be provided back to Fort Lauderdale from Port Canaveral at the end of the cruise if your car is in Fort Lauderdale. Special incentives will be offered to those who choose to sail on this cruise.

Disney Wonder Four-Night Cruise, September 26, 2004
This cruise is being delayed by one day and will depart on Monday, September 27, on a three-night voyage rather than a four-night cruise, departing from Fort Lauderdale’s Port Everglades. The cruise is still anticipated to sail to the Bahamas. However, depending on the path and impact of Hurricane Jeanne, it may be necessary to eliminate our calls to Castaway Cay and to Nassau. In this event, we will explore the potential to visit other ports or to have days at sea.

We realize that guests who have reservations for this cruise were looking forward to a four-night itinerary, and we are offering discount incentives to those who still choose to sail on this cruise.

Guests who booked air travel on their own should change only the inbound flight to Florida. Do not reschedule return flights as we expect no complications related to our return to Port Canaveral on Thursday.

Sounds like they will be cruising Saturday and Sunday without Guests.

It simply means that they had to bring this one in early - but there isn't time to get the new folks on the ship by 10:00 AM on Saturday. That is why the cruise is delayed until Monday for those folks.

I guess they could have extended this cruise til Monday as well - but this will give the people the opportunity to get home on time (hopefully they can still fly out Saturday as planned).
