tomahawk246 Posted September 22, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Cruising this weekend on Oasis out of New Jersey. What are the possibilities that could alter this cruise. Should I be concerned at all? What does it take to delay or alter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vision of the seas is effected by these storms, Saturday sailings is canceled and i read on other sites the ship is planning on returning on Monday For the Oasis out of Cape Liberty, it will not be a problem as the storm will be mostly over by then 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting advisory update from captain. Departure from Coco Cay came with announcement that we would be heading farther east to "avoid the worst of the storm".

My number one advice to anyone is to take several extra days of necessary meds with you. We couldn’t get back to Port Canaveral for 3 extra days. Some people got off at our stop in Mexico to fly home. m 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baltimore is supposed to get a lot of rain and wind. We're in No VA and we're expecting 40+ mph winds and 2-3 inches of rain. There are tropical storm warnings/watches along the east coast including the tidal Potomac and the Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the Captain is doing a great job keeping us out of weather. Barely any motion and partly sunny skies! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TravelBluebird Posted September 22, 2023 #20 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Yikes, that tropical storm sort of came out of nowhere! I’m sorry for everyone who’s cruise has been effected by it. I’m warily watching the tropical forcast (see photo) because that disturbance out in the Atlantic looks like it might be trouble for my Wonder Eastern Caribbean cruise that leaves next Sunday. Fingers crossed it doesn’t develop or heads out to the open Atlantic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed it doesn’t develop or heads out to the open Atlantic. It really didn't. A low pressure system has been forecast for about a week and showing up on forecast maps for longer than that.. The track wasn't locked in. As of right now, it's not a tropical storm, but it may become one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying that the geography of the Port of Baltimore is unique in this case and people worried about their future cruises being canceled shouldn't apply a weather cancelation there to other ports that don't have several hours of inland waterway to pass through to get to open water.
