We have managed to be on cruises away from Florida for all the hurricanes in 2004-2005 except Wilma. We leave on Saturday for the Crystal Serenity in Europe and here comes Florence. When we leave, according to the radar reports, it will be becoming a hurricane in the mid Atlantic. It will not close the airports here on your departure but may be around here a week later. Historically, hurricanes forming where Florence is veer northeast and don't hit land. Here's hoping! Judith
