    Here's a tracking site of Hurricane Danny:
     
    http://www.wunderground.com/hurricane/atlantic/2015/Tropical-Storm-Danny?map=5day
     
    At the current rate, 12 miles an hour, it is covering ~288 miles a day. Most ships travel at 18-24 miles per hour, so they can usually out run hurricanes, storms, and tropical depressions.
     
    If Royal Caribbean or it's Captain feels any danger they/he will re-route the ship. Safety of the passengers and ship is priority #1.
     
    I think there is a phone app too, but just can't seem to find it now :(

    It all depends, I believe the ship will sail unless it is unsafe to get in/out of your embarkation port at that time. Then the captain will do his best to sail safely around the weather.
     
    We had friends on a cruise a few years ago that were meant to go to Cozumel. There was a hurricane parked on top of Cozumel for the duration of the cruise so I think they ended up at Jamaica for a day instead.

    Unfortunately, it looks like this hurricane is headed right for jbjargleason's itinerary. While it seems like getting out of port is not going to be a problem, I think the rest of the itinerary could be impacted...or maybe it will have gone by that area by the time the cruise gets going. At the very least it looks like the ship will have to go around the storm so the itinerary is likely to be impacted in some way, as far as I can predict.

    It's currently moving at 12 miles an hour. Hopefully, you should be OK I would think.
