Tropical Storm Dorian formed in the Caribbean in the last few days and has caused two Royal Caribbean ships to change itineraries to avoid the projected path of the storm.
Harmony of the Seas has changed from an Eastern Caribbean itinerary to a Western Caribbean itinerary.

We will share any further itinerary updates if/when they occur.
As of Sunday afternoon, Dorian’s tropical-storm-force winds extended outward up to 35 miles from its center. Forecasters said that Dorian is expected to move generally west-northwestward for the next several days and start impacting some Caribbean islands.
