飓风 Trudy 迫近墨西哥太平洋沿岸 Virgin Voyages 邮轮 Brilliant Lady 改走加州海岸 旧金山、San Diego、Ensenada 替代三个墨西哥港口
邮轮公司 Virgin Voyages 10 月 16 日向旅客发出通知，其邮轮 Brilliant Lady 10 月 17 日从洛杉矶出发的 7 晚 Mexican Riviera 航次更改航线，原定的三个墨西哥港口全部取消，改为停靠旧金山、San Diego 与 Ensenada，10 月 24 日返回洛杉矶的时间不变。
按原定行程，Brilliant Lady 应于 10 月 19 日停靠 Cabo San Lucas、10 月 20 日停靠 Mazatlán、10 月 21 日停靠 Puerto Vallarta。据 Cruise Hive 引述的 Virgin Voyages 旅客通知，公司表示，按照国家飓风中心（National Hurricane Center, NHC）的指引，向南航行可能使邮轮处于风暴更强、更危险的一侧，「那样的安全风险是我们不愿冒的赌博」。Hurricane Trudy 10 月 16 日一度增强为 3 级飓风，随后减弱为 1 级。
更改后的行程为：10 月 17 日 17:00 从洛杉矶出发，10 月 18 日海上航行，10 月 19 日 08:00 至 20:00 停靠旧金山，10 月 20 日海上航行，10 月 21 日 08:00 至 18:00 停靠 San Diego，10 月 22 日 08:00 至 17:00 停靠 Ensenada，10 月 23 日海上航行，10 月 24 日 06:30 抵达洛杉矶。
这是 Brilliant Lady 连续第四个受热带天气影响更改航线的航次，此前 9 月 26 日、10 月 3 日、10 月 10 日出发的航次均曾改线。公司表示，通过 Virgin Voyages 预订的已取消港口岸上游项目将自动退款为船上消费额度（onboard credit）；本航次公司未宣布额外补偿，与 10 月 10 日航次的补偿安排不同。公司同时提醒旅客，手机应用中可能仍显示旧行程，并建议前往较凉爽港口的旅客多带保暖衣物。
Hurricane Trudy Sends Virgin Voyages' Brilliant Lady Up the California Coast Instead of the Mexican Riviera
Virgin Voyages notified passengers on October 16 that its ship Brilliant Lady's seven-night Mexican Riviera sailing from Los Angeles on October 17 would change course, dropping all three Mexican ports in favor of San Francisco, San Diego and Ensenada, with the October 24 return to Los Angeles unchanged.
The ship had been scheduled to call at Cabo San Lucas on October 19, Mazatlán on October 20 and Puerto Vallarta on October 21. Citing National Hurricane Center guidance quoted by Cruise Hive, the company said sailing south could put the ship on the stronger, more dangerous side of the storm — a safety gamble it was not willing to take. Hurricane Trudy briefly strengthened to Category 3 on October 16 before weakening to Category 1.
Under the revised itinerary, Brilliant Lady sails from Los Angeles at 5 p.m. on October 17, spends October 18 at sea, calls at San Francisco from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on October 19, sails October 20, calls at San Diego from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on October 21 and Ensenada from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on October 22, spends October 23 at sea and arrives in Los Angeles at 6:30 a.m. on October 24. It is the fourth consecutive Brilliant Lady sailing rerouted by tropical weather. Shore excursions for the cancelled ports booked through Virgin Voyages will be refunded as onboard credit; no additional compensation was announced for this sailing.
