klc317 Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 Was looking at ptztv key west webcam today. We have a cruise on Empress Oct 5th and was just wanting to check it out on the webcam. Noticed that all 3 ships, Celebrity Equinox, Majesty, and Empress are not there and are listed as cancelled. Wonder why that is? Weather doesn't look too bad, kinda windy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregD Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 I’m in Miami right now for our Navigator cruise. The weather report this AM showed some real nasty thunderstorms just south of the island. I wonder if the approach is too dangerous? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is, if it comes from the wrong direction, the ship becomes a giant sail, and it's impossible to control the docking. This happened to us on a small ship (Grandeur) when the weather was otherwise beautiful. So at times the port call can be cancelled. Don't know how often.... klc317 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boarded Majesty Saturday and upon getting to our state room, we received notification of a sea day followed by an overnight at Nassau. The captain sailed straight to the shelter of Grand Bahama but it was a fairly rough ride for a few hours. After that we went back and forth just south of the Island with the ship looking for the sunniest weather. Made for a great sea day. It did take a couple hours to get over the change, cause hey, this was supposed to be our Cuba cruise. Honestly, having a ball on the ship and love staying over. Not live blogging but will be posting my thoughts on Majesty and Nassau later on. SteveinSC, klc317 and SpeedNoodles 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
