Re: Im a bit scared boarding during hurricane season

Firstly, hurricanes rarely come as far inland as Orlando - although it has happened before.

The cruise part of your trip is more likely to be disrupted by a hurrican than the land part - although you'd still have to be pretty unlucky.

I beleive that when hurricanes (and related storms) are affecting Port Canaveral, boats sometimes divert to Fort Lauderdale and board there. If you're taking the cruise bus from WDW, they will obviously know about it and take you to the right place.

I'm sure there will be a phone number in your documents that you can ring while at WDW to check if there is a hurricane about.

And I'm sure if you are delayed getting to the port, many, many others will also be affected so some kind of allowance must be made. Given the proximity of WDW to the port though, if a hurricane was close enough to be disrupting road transport I'm sure the ship would not risk setting sail anyway.
