hey,
I know this might be a very dummy question so apologies in advance but I don't know how to figure this out. We are considering booking the Escape Transatlantic and have never done a TA before.
I wanted to ask if anyone could have some guidance on what the weather might look like (with all the caveats related to weather with more than 6 months advance, I'm aware). We keep hearing / reading how rough the Atlantic can be and the amount of cold/rain/fog we could get but we are unsure if that relates to Northern crossings (to/from UK, NYC, etc) - considering the cruise would take the route Madeira towards Antigua, does anyone know what kind of temperatures and level of rain can be expected on those latitudes? We are just trying to figure out if the 5 sea days crossing the Atlantic would restrict us to being fully indoors or on those latitudes there's a chance we could still use the outdoors areas and potentially pools at a confortable level. Looking at December mean temperatures for both Madeira and Saint John my answer would be "yes" but as I mentioned we have no previous experience on TA cruises to understand what the weather looks like and if we can use those 2 references.
Thanks!
