greenie Posted January 23, 2005 #1 Share Posted January 23, 2005 I'm assuming a cruise was scheduled to leave NYC today--does anyone know if this storm has cancelled or delayed it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bragstarr Posted January 23, 2005 #2 Share Posted January 23, 2005 Pretty sure it was a 10 day cruise going out that left on Thursday the 20th--the Sunday departures on 7 dayers resume on February 20 (that's me!) Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Robin is correct the Dawn sailed into St Thomas this morning, just a little late but she's in warm water now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug910 Posted January 23, 2005 #4 Share Posted January 23, 2005 I also feel sorry for the passengers that were due to fly out yesterday into Miami for a cruise....I heard that something like 2500 flights were cancelled...Not only were some of those passengers flying in the same day of their cruise, what about the ones that were flying in a day early and still haven't gotten on a flight??? Good luck to all....I hope you make it (or at the very least have insurance)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoreguy Posted January 23, 2005 #5 Share Posted January 23, 2005 Robin is correct the Dawn sailed into St Thomas this morning, just a little late but she's in warm water now. The Dawn docked about 3 hours late in St. Thomas. It would have been a nightmare had the turn around been today. Timing is everything.

Knightcruiser Posted January 23, 2005 #6 Share Posted January 23, 2005 I'm cruising the Dawn on Feb. 27th. Does anyone know what happens if there is a snowstorm that delays the sailing significantly? Are you refunded the cost of the cruise or a choice of cruising at another date? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you refunded the cost of the cruise or a choice of cruising at another date? NCl has a winter weather gtd. - I think the cruise has to be 12 hours late. you can choose a $100 credit or refund. That would gives NCL until 4 am to get out of NYC. Check NCL.com, Fleet, Dawn, Winter Weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolphins Posted January 23, 2005 #8 Share Posted January 23, 2005 Dawn was fortunate not to be docking in New York today, having left on Thursday. While she would have had little trouble docking today, passengers getting to the ship would have had problems but since the snow stopped by noon, I am sure the ship would have delayed departure to receive them. De-barking passengers would be getting off as the snow ended. Even in this worst case winter scenario, it still beats flying to a cruise as thousands of stranded airport passengers can attest.

greenie Posted January 23, 2005 Author #9 Share Posted January 23, 2005 I'm so glad to hear the Dawn left on Thursday! *whew* As I sat inside yesterday and today looking at the storm, all I could do was think of cruising! And of some people maybe having had their plans messed up.:( I agree that there probably are some bummed out people, thanks to the flights being canceled. I hope it works out for them!

swoosh2005 Posted January 23, 2005 #10 Share Posted January 23, 2005 according to http://www.kroooz-cams.com at 6:25 (7:25 island time) they're still there so perhaps they got a longer stay in St. Thomas today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
