Cruise Ships Change Itineraries Due To T.S. Fay
MIAMI (AP) ―
Two cruise ship operators have modified some sailing itineraries to avoid Tropical Storm Fay.
Royal Caribbean International and Carnival Corp. say that because of the wind and sea conditions created by Tropical Storm Fay they will not be able to use the port of Key West on Tuesday.
Carnival said it would also not sail toward Mexico to avoid crossing the path of the storm.
Royal Caribbean said it would not visit Key West on Tuesday and that one ship would reverse its ports of call to avoid the storm.
