U never saw the hurricane cause your cruise captain steered you away from it - let me see - what would I prefer -stop at a port where you may get injured or go somewhere calm? No brainer really!

If you saw the effects of the hurricane,you would no doubt be complaining about being subject to the storm. I can't believe you are so ignorant as to question the Captain's decision to keep his passengers & crew safe!!
