The logistics of the extended sailing combined with a hurricane that seemingly will never end means we cannot go. Or at least, it's not the responsible thing for us to do. Sorry to hear, I do feel you made the right choice. For your exact situation I would have done the same. Matt and ANGELA ROMAN 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emfagan Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 Understanding the cancellation decision, best of luck in braving the storm...prayers for all of those impacted! ANGELA ROMAN 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted August 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 I can say from personal experience now, it's one thing to cancel a cruise, but quite another to cancel on the day you are supposed to board. A lot of emotions and frustration, which is obvious since cancelling months in advance doesn't allow the cruise to become "real" yet. Alas, thanks for following and hoping things will work out for a new live blog for my Mariner of the Seas September 20 sailing.

FManke Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 If the worst thing that happens is some people have to cancel a cruise and other itineraries are modified, I think we will all be relieved. cdixon22 and Matt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovetocruise2002 Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 Sorry to hear @Matt. It’s such a difficult situation, but definitely the more responsible one likely. You always have your cruising community here to lean on. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heffy2 Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 So sorry to hear, I can't believe how hard it would be on the day of sailing. Thanks for the wonderful Podcast episode this week, and every week. Matt and ANGELA ROMAN 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being in North Florida the unknown is nerve racking for us too. Fingers crossed no issues for that cruise. We are also on that sailing.

ANGELA ROMAN Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 @Matt Better safe than sorry! I really feel for you. I haven't cruised as much as you yet, but I can definitely relate to what you must be feeling! Keep up the fantastic work with all of your blogs, videos & podcasts... They keep us "Cruise -Aholics" fixed! Matt, cdixon22 and JLMoran 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josepena12 Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 @Matt it was for the best since the Hurricane wants to spend a few days in Florida. I was checking Periscope for a few hours thinking I was missing your scopes, before I though of checking the message boards. You’ll be on another cruise soon enough.
