Cruising During Hurricane Season

Cruising during hurricane season can be a challenge.  You can prepare for it ahead of time.  If you decide to book a cruise during hurricane season, travel insurance is a must! I cannot stress this enough.  I started cruising back in the late 1990's, the down season (hurricane season).  I very rarely encountered any issues with the weather.  I have noticed that over the years the Atlantic is becoming more and more active during the months of June to November.  The actual start and end of hurricane season is June 1 to November 30.  The deals during this time can be very tempting.  I always loved traveling in the fall but as long as you purchase travel insurance you will be in good shape.  The only other issue is the change in itinerary.  If you select a certain cruise because of the itinerary during hurricane season, it may change.  If you read your passenger contract, the cruise line may change the itinerary at any time because of weather.   It is a beautiful time of the year to travel but just make sure you have covered all your bases. Happy Cruising!
