    Staying safe is much better than being in a severe storm.

    I think having Kool and the Gang would be great. It's been amazing how the cruise lines started playing this great 70s and 80s music. When I started cruising 25 years ago they only played music for old people.

    Safety of all onboard is critical. Kudos to the Cruise Line and those responsible on board. Around the world including in the US there have been extreme weather challenges -- doesn't matter the size of the ship. Ever been on a crossing from Europe to Ireland, Don? It can be very challenging in so-called Normal weather. Travel depends on many "beyond control" events; time to understand travel does not come with eerything guaranteed to be "perfect". Travel Professional since 1990; travelled far and wide before entering -- it's life.

    I was on a Norwegian Panama canal cruise back in 2022 that was cancelled the day after departure due to an outbreak of COVID amongst the crew members.
    The ship departed at 6pm and turned around by 10am the next morning, headed back to Miami. Once they announced the outbreak, everything shut down! Casino, all shows, activities and all dining except the buffet. The worst part is once we got into port, we could not get off the ship for THREE DAYS! Due to a U.S. Customs and CDC issue.
    Fortunately, because the cancellation was ultimately issued by the CDC, we received full Refunds and 50% off & free internet on a future cruise if you booked it while we were still on the ship.
    As a bonus, we ALL got off the ship with COVID!!!

      Wow what a considerate “gift”!
      Personally, I think the dining room is safer than the buffet.

    It was a short cruise and they have to sail down the river to get out to sea. They were going to Amsterdam, they’d have to go through the locks. They’re probably closed from the North Sea. Absolutely the right decision, It’s been terrible here. There were two very large ships in Southampton due to leave Saturday, they were 24 hrs late and left yesterday. Those ships have 7 m swells going down towards the Bay of Biscay. It’s very bad on there apparently.

    Thank you, Don, For all the good information. Yes, even though I would be a little board staying on the ship but in my opinion Safety comes first. Very interesting with all the changes coming from NCL but they must think these changes will be for the Good.

    Galveston would be a hard port to be stuck in for drinkers. The alcohol menu is quite restricted while still in Texas waters, and the drink package would not be turned on because of state laws.

    This storm that's hitting us at the moment is definitely what we might call 'a bit blowy'. It started on Saturday and it's now Monday and we are still being battered around the country. Unseasonably cold weather hit dumping many inches of snow all over the UK, then it rained with the rest being severe flooding and unfortunately the loss of life.
    NCL, I'm amazed anyone still travels with them these days, it's just about bad news every time they are mentioned. Way too risky to book for me.

    Ambition is not a small ship, granted she isnt like some of the .behemoths sailing these days but she is a fair size. The Port of London Authority closed the river hence all sailings were cancelled. Passengers were given the option of disembarking but only around 200 did so.

    I would be disappointed if the ship didn't leave port, but it's better to be safe than sorry. I presume the shops and casino wouldn't be open. I wonder if the passengers were allowed to go ashore?
