Same here... hopefully its all clear by the time we leave on Monday!Following... I am on the same cruise.
clear by the time you are ready to leave is the easy part potentially. Getting the Dream into port in the early morning hours, getting everything off and provisions on during a storm will not be feasible if the storm hits as projected.Same here... hopefully its all clear by the time we leave on Monday!
Thank you for your input- very much appreciated!clear by the time you are ready to leave is the easy part potentially. Getting the Dream into port in the early morning hours, getting everything off and provisions on during a storm will not be feasible if the storm hits as projected.
Anything can happen with the storm that many days away. We live in Orlando and we are hoping it continues to take a more northerly path and doesn't really impact Florida at all.
Just as a heads up, Disney World shut down for either 1 or 2 days when Irma came through a couple of years ago...............so it may not even be open when you get off the shipi'm so stressing about this. we are on Friday Dream. We planned this as a last quick summer getaway before school starts for us on Tuesday. My wife is a teacher. We had a grand plan of getting back Monday - we have a 12pm ressie at oga's in Star Wars Galaxy Edge. Now Oga's is least of my concern. Seeing as it will likely hit Orlando/Central Florida coast Monday, we are likely missing first day of school. And if' it's 24 hours notice, i need to call my airline on Sunday to reschedule, and my phone at sea won't work. I do have insurance, so fees and cost for that i'm ok with. It's just how do I get in touch with my airline on the phone if we are out to sea.
This isn't Disney's first rodeo. On the Fantasy trip in May of 201(7) that was delayed into canaveral, guests were given free ship to shore calls for the purpose of rearranging flights, etc. There were long lines at guest services. I believe they also increased the free wifi allotment to allow folks to try and take care of things. It was slow and cumbersome for many, but they were able to get things hashed out.. It's just how do I get in touch with my airline on the phone if we are out to sea.
The only issue with Tampa (where we live) is that the Euro model has it hitting Tampa as a cat 1-2 once it hits FL...They can also dock at a different port and bus everyone back to Orlando airport. They have done this in the past when they couldn't dock in Port Canaveral. For example if it is safe to dock in Tampa they may do that instead.
