PS. Here is the latest from Disney.

Weather Update

As of 9:00 a.m. EST - Tuesday, October 18, 2005

We are currently monitoring Tropical Storm Wilma very closely as it
moves
through the western Caribbean.

The latest predictions from the National Weather Service indicate the
storm will
have moved through the region by the end of this week. At this time, we
do not
anticipate any changes in the October 22, 2005 voyage of the Disney
Magic®.

This week's Disney Magic® and Disney Wonder® voyages will not be
impacted
by the
storm.

The safety and security of our guests is always our top priority. If
necessary,
our Captains are always prepared to alter the ships courses or
itinerary
to
navigate away from inclement weather.

Good news!


Not to sound like the pessimist, but I wouldn't put too much faith in
Disney's over-optimistic announcement. Most of the projections have
Wilma
moving across the Keys in a northwest track and exiting out on the east
coast of Florida right around the time that the Oct. 22nd cruise is
supposed
to leave port.

At best, he'd be travelling in tropical storm force conditions...and I
doubt
that they'd set sail.

Hopefully I'm wrong...


Maybe they're planning to leave Port Canaveral and haul ass for New York.
I'm
thinking like you are. At the planned departure time, Wilma should be just
overhead. Maybe they'll just cruise in the eye of the storm until it
dissipates.

Don't the cruise ships head out to sea rather than stay at port prior to
hurricanes?
