Travel Info Is it safe to go to Cozumel Mexico on a cruise in Sept during hurricane season, will i enjoy my trip? Travel Tips Yes you will enjoy your trip. No one can predict the exact weather in Sept. But whenever there is bad weather when a cruise starts the cruise ship will be diverted away from the bad weather. The worse that can happen is you end up in another port instead, or stay in a port you are in longer until the hurricane clears. Last year we went on a cruise that had to reverse the order of the port stops because there was a hurricane there when we were supposed to be there. By the time we did get there 3 days later the weather was great. Many time cruise itineraries will be changed for a variety of reasons. You may simply end up in Cozumel a different day. By the way I have been there and toured the island and if you miss it you will not miss anything except nice beaches but they are all over the Caribbean. Others YES! I went on a cruise to Cozumel in October of 2004...it rained a little bit...but not enough to spoil anything! I had a blast, and the weather was perfect 98% of the time. HAVE FUN!! you will enjoy the trip, but weather cannot be guaranteed. try to buy some sort of insurance. DON'T WORRY, CRUISES ARE THE BEST AND THE SHIPS ARE VERY SAFE... JUST KICK BACK AND RELAX, HAVE A DRINK FOR ME AND ENJOY IT... YOU WILL HAVE THE BEST TIME EVER... CRUISES ROCK!!! No one can guarantee the weather, so if it isn't too late I would suggest buying some travel insurance. Having said that, the cruise lines have the right to modify an itinerary based on the conditions of the islands they plan on visiting. You might end up somewhere besides Cozumel if they get hit early in the season (they did take a substantial beating 2 years ago). Have fun! cruise ships rarely miss ports due to hurricanes, however it does happen on occasion. The cruise lines are fully aware of the weather and will not put you in any danger. You may end up at another port though if a hurricane is in the area. September is still hurricane season in the Caribbean, so there's always the possibility that one would occur while you were on your cruise. However, the Captain and crew monitor weather conditions very closely and are quite able to avoid any danger. After all, they've got an expensive ship to take care of, not to mention the passengers! We were on a cruise two years ago, when all the hurricanes were going across Florida. Our cruise was to end in Ft. Lauderdale and there were hurricane warnings, so the port was closed. People back home were a bit worried, but we got two free days of cruising and couldn't even tell there was a hurricane - until we headed into FLL; then things were a bit rocky, but still not too bad. When we stopped in Key West, we were able to "phone home", change our flights, etc and then enjoy those two extra days! |
