twangster Posted August 29, 2019 Report Share Posted August 29, 2019 I am actually very pleased with the FCC offer. No fault of their own and a very generous credit. When I walked around CocoCay last week in my head I imagined the effort it would take to secure the island in the event of a tropical storm and still get the hundreds of employees who live there off the island. I know they have a plan in place and this week that plan went into effect. I'd love to be able to see it. All the work to secure all the things we all take for granted. Just wow. Then when the threat passes they get to put it all back in place, after the employees themselves get back on island. While I was so looking forward to another visit and experiencing the water park for the first time, mother nature had other plans. Good thing I booked a B2B, currently the 2nd leg is supposed to get there. However even that is subject to the whims of Mother Nature.

I thought the same thing as we walked around the compound when we were there in July as well. All of those overhead shade covers would have to be taken down and then re-installed later.... so much work. twangster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK2793 Posted August 29, 2019 Report Share Posted August 29, 2019 The storm is now supposed to hit the east coast of Florida, somewhere between Miami and Jacksonville..... most likely Canaveral area...... as at least a category 3 sometime in the very early morning hours on Monday ..... at around 2am or so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This far out even the cone of uncertainty is uncertain. PRebecca 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monctonguy Posted August 29, 2019 Report Share Posted August 29, 2019 No perfect Days at CocoCay this weekend..lol.....Royal losing a pile with these extra sea days....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twangster Posted August 29, 2019 Report Share Posted August 29, 2019 Port Miami has set Condition Whiskey Condition X-Ray expected at noon Thursday. Ships need to make plans to depart when Condition Yankee is declared. When they set Condition Yankee ships in port must leave and no inbound ships will be allowed in.

CruisingFan305 Posted August 29, 2019 Report Share Posted August 29, 2019 Can’t wait for the 1pm update from RCCL. Not sure how they are going to get Mariner back to Port Canaveral and Navigator back to Port Miami on MONDAY 9/2 when a possible CAT 4 hurricane will be somewhere along the eastern FL coast.... I really don’t want to get on this ship at this point. We are scheduled on Navigator leaving 8/30 out of Miami. ChrisK2793 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisingFan305 Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 Ok so just got the email saying they are extending our cruise to 5 days and Cozumel. Or you can opt out and get 100% future cruise fare. Happy now. This is on the Navigator leaving from a Miami Friday 8/30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No clue what that means for the 08/31 sailing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyCruise127 Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 Wonder what they are doing with Navigator that was to leave Monday, September 2nd, now that it is not returning until Wednesday, September 4th.
