What Happens If There Is a Hurricane During My Disney Cruise?

[Disney4me]

Are you planning on taking a Disney Cruise in the future?

Disney Magic Cruise Ship

There is a lot to prepare for in advance, and you might be thinking through some problems that could arise on your trip. You might be worried about getting seasick while on the ship. You might be worried about the weather and what to do if a hurricane is coming. We are here to help put your mind at ease.

Before we get into the details, Small World Vacations’ services are 100% free and can help you book your Disney Cruise, as well as arrange special accommodations that you might need onboard the ship, find cruise line deals, and discuss your travel insurance options with you (so you feel confident in whatever decision you make. 

Unfortunately, life happens, and so does Mother Nature — even on your Disney Cruise. So if there is a storm, your cruise could be impacted by that. If it is a milder tropical storm, your cruise might not be canceled, instead, you might receive a whole new itinerary.  We’ve seen this happen before. A cruise will have a scheduled stop at a certain port of call, but instead of docking, the ship will have to skip over the port entirely. The ship might move onto a full day out at sea to keep everyone safe and out of the storm’s path. Disney will send out emails with more information to travel agents and cruisers to keep passengers updated on the storm situations at hand.

In situations where a hurricane might be approaching, cruises can be canceled. If a cruise is cancelled, guests will receive a full refund. We have also seen that Disney will even offer an added discount on your next cruise for the inconvenience. If your cruise does get cancelled, you’ll also need to check out the cancellation policies for your airfare, hotel, rental car, etc., because they can all be different, depending on the company.

This is also a reason you might want to get some travel insurance before your trip. Disney has its own Disney Cruise Line Vacation Protection Plan that you can tack onto your cruise line expenses, which can help cover your money in case of a trip cancellation, delay, medical emergency, or lost baggage.  If you want our advice, we suggest discussing your options by reaching out to a professional travel agent, like Small World Vacations!
