Creator's Key Takeaways

When you book a cruise a year or two in advance, specifically for a destination, it is not a guarantee that you will be able to visit that specific port

Being understanding that it is the cruise lines number one priority is to keep people safe on board their vessels and it's not guaranteed that you will be able to attend the port

Technically, the cruise line is not obligated to give you a reason as to why they will not be attending that port, but in most cases, they do announce why

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Understand that visiting a specific port is not guaranteed when booking a cruise.
✓Be understanding of cancellations as safety is the cruise line's number one priority.
✓Remember that when you make a deposit, you have agreed to the terms and conditions.

Missing a cruise port is not always a part of the plan. However, things happen and the cruise lines have no choice. Especially, when it comes to the safety of their passengers and staff. The most common cause of a canceled port is weather.
