Creator's Key Takeaways

Royal Caribbean's Ovation of the Seas is facing delays due to Typhoon Halong, which has sustained winds of 150 knots near Japan.

PO Cruises will end its adults only policy on select Arcadia and Aurora sailings beginning December next year.

Carnival Cruise Line has addressed guest concerns over luggage wrapping and storage, but travelers may not get the solution they hope for.

Brandabaster John He confirmed the line does not provide this service.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Check for port closures and typhoon impacts before booking trans-Pacific cruises.
Be aware that luggage wrapping services are not provided by Carnival Cruise Line.
Store luggage in state rooms, typically under the bed, as no additional storage is available.
