Given Tropical Storm Noel’s location and projected path, NCL has made the following itinerary modifications at this time.
Norwegian Majesty from Charleston, SC
Norwegian Majesty arrived in St. George’s, Bermuda yesterday as scheduled, but changed docking position and moved to Hamilton this morning. The vessel will depart Hamilton at 5:00 pm today to avoid the storm and keep guests as comfortable as possible on the return to Charleston.
Norwegian Sun from Miami
Norwegian Sun will cancel its call to Great Stirrup Cay, Bahamas on Friday, November 2 and instead call at Key West, Florida.

Not a whole lot of cruise news this week - but if you’re a regular reader of the site then you knew that already 
This week we take a slightly different tack with the show. Yes, we know that we are a cruise podcast, but this week we talk about air travel
The fact is that most cruise passengers need to fly to get to their departure port, so love it or hate it but you’re probably going to end up on in the airport and on a plane. The thing is, we also know that lots of folks aren’t familiar with the latest air travel rules and regulations. Plus, we share a few of the tips that we follow to make our trips through the airport as smooth as can be expected.
Don’t worry, next week we’ll talk about cruising again!

I’ve been hard at work over in the Photo Gallery. Besides posting pictures from our recent sailing on Queen Mary 2, I’ve also made some changes to the overall look of the page.
I’ve long been unhappy with how it looked over there, hopefully you’ll find the new gallery cleaner, easier to navigate, and more attractive.
So what are you waiting for? Go check it out!

With the 2008 Olympic Games less than a year away, China is abuzz with excitement and activity as the country prepares to welcome the world. The host city of Beijing is already dressing itself up with brand new stadiums, hotels, restaurants, galleries and upscale shops that will accommodate the needs of an unprecedented influx of visitors — meaning the months leading up to the Summer Olympics offer a unique opportunity for savvy travelers to explore China’s greatest cultural and historic attractions amid the growing fanfare, but without the crowds.
Recognizing the destination’s special allure, ultra-luxury Silversea Cruises is offering guests aboard Silver Shadow’s World Cruise 2008 a collection of optional overland adventures carefully tailored to showcase China’s rich history and fascinating culture, while offering a glimpse of new attractions like Beijing’s stunning new National Stadium and the iridescent National Aquatics Center, known as the Water Cube, both specially constructed for the Summer Olympics.
The programs are available on Silver Shadow’s 21-day “Ode to a Peaceful Sea” segment (#3804), departing February 8, 2008 from Honolulu to Hong Kong, and “Harmonies of Legend and Legacy,” a 14-day journey (#3805) from Hong Kong to Singapore that departs on March 1, 2008.
