One TikToker is currently experiencing the least magical cruise on Chainkeenearth.
Influencer Myriam Estrella—who is known for her fitness and theme park content—shared she is currently stuck on a Disney Cruise Line ship in the direct path of Hurricane Milton, a category four hurricane expected to make landfall in Florida Oct. 9.
"Milton is forming in this area where we're at," Myriam told followers in an Oct. 8 TikTok update. "The captain is not really letting us know what's going on until a couple minutes before something happens."
And that extended to the ship's staff as well, as she explained that the captain was trying to avoid false information spreading and causing everyone on the ship to go "crazy."
"Basically, the captain is just not really saying much until minutes before it's about to happen," she continued, "which I understand, but also it's scary."
Myriam—who had noted that this was her first cruise—also shared that not only was the ship currently in Milton's path, but that her home is as well.
"So it's kind of like Milton's hitting us double whammy, which, of course, a man would do that," she joked. "F--k Milton. I'm saying this lightheartedly, but I have been panicking throughout the day."
She was particularly nervous about the hurricane hitting their hometown, as that is where her dogs currently are. Myriam explained in a previous video the pups had to be evacuated from the facility they were staying in, but luckily she had friends and plans in place to make sure they were OK.
As for why Myriam decided to take a cruise during a hurricane, she explained that prior to boarding the ship she checked with Disney, but that they weren't expecting Hurricane Milton to be so aggressive.
"They said everything's fine. And also the day of, I knew there was gonna be a storm, like, maybe category one hurricane," she added, "which we have gotten before, and it's mostly just windy with some rain. So I was worried, but not panicked. But this is category five, so things are a little different."
As for whether or not she'd take a cruise again? As Myriam noted, definitely not during hurricane season. "I have learned my lesson the hard way."
In her previous video, she explained that it had been an anxiety-filled trip, but was "definitely a cruise for the books" and she hoped that "in about, like, 55 years, we'll be able to look back at this and laugh."
