Cruise ships are changing their itineraries because of a hurricane, and Disney Cruise Line passengers are facing changes to specialty dining. We've also had a wonderful day aboard Island Princess! Hi there! This is Allison with Let's Go! Travel Tips! Today is October 16, 2026, and we're enjoying Cruise Date 11 of our 50-day Grand Mediterranean Odyssey aboard Princess Cruises' Island Princess. In today's cruise news, we're talking about reported itinerary changes affecting Virgin Voyages' Brilliant Lady and Norwegian Bliss as a storm threatens cruise destinations along Mexico's Pacific coast. Brilliant Lady passengers are reportedly seeing changes to their Mexican Riviera itinerary, with San Francisco and San Diego replacing some originally scheduled destinations. Norwegian Bliss is also reportedly missing Acapulco. We're also discussing changes to Disney Cruise Line's adult specialty dining restaurants, including Palo and Palo Trattoria. Allison shares details about the planned changes to fixed-price dining and the dining benefit for Platinum and Pearl Castaway Club members, with changes expected October 22. And aboard Island Princess, we've had such a special day! Our ship's Pop Choir performed, including members of our Let's Go! Family. It was a wonderful reminder of the friendships, joy, and memorable experiences that make cruising so special. We also attended a Princess Captain's Circle party and learned some interesting statistics about our fellow passengers, including just how many Elite cruisers are sailing with us! Coming up next, we're looking forward to visiting Cádiz, Spain, and exploring Seville. Are you sailing aboard a ship that's had its itinerary changed?
