Cruising from Baltimore....
 

We are booked on Celebrity (Galaxy), sailing from Baltimore (Western Caribbean) in April. <BR>This is a new itinerary. Does anyone know 'what route' a ship could take to reach Key West in 2 days? Our 4 sea days will be in Atlantic Ocean. Doubt the weather could be warm. Is there someone who knows about ships/routes to a port? <BR>

Hi Elaine,<BR><BR>The ship will follow the coast about 3 miles out.<BR><BR>If you are sailing April 5th it will be colder than the one sailing on April 26th.<BR><BR>When you get down past North Carolina you will feel the heat during the day. The nights will still be cold.<BR><BR>There is plenty to do on the ship to keep you occupied and the spa is wonderful.<BR><BR>Paul<BR><BR>

Paul,<BR><BR>Thanks for your reply. This is the info I was seeking!<BR><BR>

We are doing this route in May with a first time cruiser. Will the waters be rough? Thanks for the help

Hi Catherine,<BR><BR>If you run into a storm the water will be rough. The ship will hug the coast and will not be in the open Atlantic therefore a regular cruising day would not be rough.<BR><BR>Don't forget you will be on a ship and not a ferry boat. In rough waters you will feel a soft roll, not what you see in the movies.<BR><BR>If you are worried simply confer with your doctor and he will phone in a perscription to your pharmacy for the "patch." Be sure to follow the directions carefully. You can not put on the patch when you are in a storm and expect it to work miracles.<BR><BR>Happy cruising.<BR><BR>Paul
