THANK YOU! We are on 7 night Mexican Riviera …Any cruise ship will position itself to provide guests the best weather possible. This is more doable if you're on a shorter cruise (Ensenada only) than a longer cruise (Cabo and beyond).

Not necessarily. Int'l waters is a big deal for warships, fishing/commercial (which extends out to 200 NM) and others (e.g. offshore drilling). For passenger vessels like cruise ships, course is determined by safe navigation and weatherAnd they should be at least 3 miles out to be in International Waters?
More info to tuck into my brain - and push out things I think I know.Not necessarily.

That's always what I thought, but I'm not sure I have any specific info to back that up, so it might have just been an assumption I made at one point (and then just assumed it was fact).Not applicable to Disney, but for cruiselines with casinos, don't they have to be in international waters to open the casino?
And the shops - which is applicable to Disney.
For shops I think it’s also a sales tax question. If you sell goods in a country there would be some sort of sales tax in many cases. That’s the thing with the limit of alcohol sales while in port at Grand Cayman.I'm guessing that's why shops/casinos/etc. open once ships are in in international waters, because Bahamian laws are likely much looser than US ones.
THANKS! Just got off the ship yesterday! Originally I was concerned with 3/23 and 3/24, but the original system didn't materialize over the water and coast as expected. Phew! Yesterday morning in San Diego was a different story ! Luckily it cleared by 1:30 and we had a wonderful afternoon outside! Checked out the Balboa Museums in the morning which was PERFECT for a rainy morning!Past Ensenada, rain is rare during the winter/spring months. If you're on the late April cruise, there's a stronger chance for rain between SD & Ensenada but not that strong and I wouldn't expect it. If you're on the mid-March cruise, anything goes these days but it's generally past our rainy season.
