It’s like a page ripped right out of playbook from Hurricane Irene in 2011 but this time affecting a few more ships and a little stronger. Hurricane Sandy is bearing down on the northeast as a category one storm and scattering ships all throughout the Caribbean and mid-Atlantic.

Here’s what we have so far:

Princess Cruises

• Ruby Princess isn’t calling in Princess Cays on Monday. They are assessing the damage sustained on Princess Cays due to the storm.
• For Emerald Princess, due to the presence of Hurricane Sandy and the impact it will have on the New England area, the port calls to Bar Harbor, Boston and Newport R have been cancelled. Port calls to Port Saguenay and Corner Brook have been added.

The US Coast Guard has advised that it will close the Port of New York as of 6 pm today, Sunday, October 28. Therefore, Norwegian Gem’s arrival in New York on Monday, October 29 will be delayed and the ship will remain at sea. The Coast Guard has not yet determined when it will re-open the Port of New York. Therefore, guests scheduled to sail on Norwegian Gem’s October 29 sailing are asked to continue to check ncl.com for the latest updates and information. We expect an update on the ship’s arrival and departure times on Sunday evening.
