I would leave as early as I could muster and get as far south as I could as fast as I could. Can we stop to pee? Here is a bottle and a funnel! Probably better to go west and get away from the coast then drive south. Or find an unaffected airport to the west even if a few hours drive and fly from there. Airlines are flexible in these situations 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coaster Posted January 27, 2022 #77 Share Posted January 27, 2022 (edited) I would not jump through hoops now with the risk of quarantine. Take advantage of the CWC and cancel 48 hrs before. Use it to your benefit and stop stressing. Too cold here right now in Florida and even lower temperatures this weekend.

Too cold here right now in Florida and even lower temperatures this weekend. if it was a lift and shift, we probably would cancel and take the FCC. but the price we got on this suite was a STEAL.. and we wouldn't even be able to book a Jr. Suite with the FCC if we moved it. I think we'll be ok... and with a temp of 12 out right now, i'll be thrilled with 60 degrees! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jasukkie Posted January 27, 2022 #81 Share Posted January 27, 2022 I have to laugh at the water temperatures not being high enough in the Bahamas. If you are used to New England beaches, you will be fine. I've been there a bunch of time in the winter and overheard people complaining about it and always thought it was like bathwater. Just like how 50 degrees feels like a balmy spring day when it's 7 degrees where you are located. Really wish you luck in your travels OP. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The water temperature at Coco Cay is (and is expected to remain) at 76 degrees today (it's now 72 at Fort Lauderdale). The air temperature on Monday may be a bit less, but with comparably high humidity (and ground cover that is literally heated). The warmest water along the southern Maine coast is in August with an average of 65 degrees (prior and subsequent months not so good). One would imagine that being at Coco Cay on Monday and touching base online with the weathered experience back home will put a smile on their faces. 🙂 Also glad to see they changed their flight to Friday night. Good move. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. Your Apex thread was awesome to read several times per day. Haven't been on the Edge Class (various reasons) and really rekindled our interest. Very familiar with Oasis and Allure from a half a dozen B2B cruise when new. Looking forward to memories. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s if all the stars align lol… test then the weather then the airline reactions to the weather. Hopefully will be on the 1/30 doing a B2B in two different types of room. Thank you for coming along and get ready (fingers crossed) for another photo journey on the Oasis! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smplybcause Posted January 28, 2022 #95 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Starting to think what's too hot, too cold, or I guess any weather discussions should be added to the list of age old cruise critic arguments.

I fly into North Carolina Friday night too so hope doesn’t effect my flight. This is what I would have done. Booked out early Friday morning and take the extra day off.

You should be ok. They are calling for it to change from rain to snow around 9/10, here in Charlotte, so at that point it probably won't be too bad for your connecting flight to get out. If you end up having to drive it's probably around 11 hours. Wishing you lots of luck!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people say Covid, the JFK assassination, or that we never made it to the moon are the biggest conspiracy theories ever. I'm not sure how it would work, but I think "wind chill temperature" is even bigger. Maybe the biggest of all.
