Think the 7 night Eastern will be a 7 night western to be safe and have a more enjoyable cruise.Well folks we are getting a little clearing track now. Sa of this morning, the storm is tracking a bit more to the east and arching north toward Georgia and the Carolinas. This would mean any vessel leaving PC would likely head south. However if the storm moves slow enough, it is possible to go east and then south. Of course St Thomas, St Martin and San Juan are right in the track and will have some damage even if this is still a Tropical storm. Anyone want to flip a coin?

We will have to see that the evening track looks like.

Will there be space to dock at the western ports if other cruise lines decide the same itinerary change?
Is that "trip to nowhere" law in place yet? Heh.
Back in 2004, DCL canceled a Wonder cruise when they got so far behind they were early for the next trip due to the 4 hurricanes that hit Florida in a short period of time.
This was after they shortened cruises trying to get the ships back into their normal routines.
If you have a 7-night cruise and they change your Eastern Carib to a Western Carib itinerary or vice-versa, do they announce it once you are on board? Do they have signs posted in the terminal?
I'm going on the fantasy on Saturday. My question is, and hopefully someone can help me, the Eastern itinerary is more expensive than the western. Does Disney monetarily compensate you in some way for the change? Thanks!

I believe the cruise contract basically says that they have the right to do just about anything and not have to compensate you.I'm going on the fantasy on Saturday.

I would be getting really nervous if I were on the dream arriving back to PC on Monday or departing on Monday. That looks like it may be the most affected, esp the 4 night departure.
and anyone on the boat an extra day obviously all missed their flights.............that is if they had them booked to leave on the day they were to return from their cruise.Agreed. It is looking very possible that the 3 night weekend cruise on the Dream could turn into a 4 nighter. That happened to me back in 2004 on a Royal ship when Hurricane Wilma hit. We ended up with an extra day at sea because of the storm (if I recall correctly, the Port of Miami lost power). When we finally got off the ship late on Tuesday morning, we were greeted by many long faces of people who had unfortunately lost one of their days and were anxiously (and patiently) waiting to finally board their cruise. That was kind of awkward.

agree. if I was flying in on this coming monday or trying to board this coming monday, it would risky for sure.I was just thinking that not only should you not fly in on the day of but you shouldn't fly out on the last day...at least in hurricane season.
