The power outrages were widespread and covered large swaths in South Florida, including Miami, Miami Beach, Coral Gables, Aventura, North Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Pompano Beach and West Palm Beach.

When will Disney cruises start in Fort Lauderdale? Here are details on dates and ships. Disney is bringing its cruise ships to Fort Lauderdale. Port Everglades will be the second Florida home port for the company after Port Canaveral, on the state’s Space Coast. The first ship will set sail on Nov. 20 from Fort Lauderdale, the beginning of a minimum 15-year agreement between Disney Cruise Line and Florida’s second busiest port after Miami. The 4,000-passenger Disney Dream will sail a five-night trip to the Caribbean. Then it will do four-night and five-night trips until next spring when another ship, the Disney Magic, will replace it for three, four- and five-night cruises. Trips will also include stops at Disney’s private island on the Bahamas. Link |
