Let me try to put all this together:
The cruise was canceled because of the excess ice during a warming period while we are in a cooling trend where we are thawing out and sea ice is increasing.

Correct. The climate is composed of a complex series of warming and cooling cycles of varying amplitudes and frequencies. And, we are currently in a cooling Feynman cycle which is a long-term sunspot cycle. And, we are currently in a warming Eddy cycle which is a longer-term internal solar cycle. And, we are currently in a cooling Milankovitch cycle which is a very long term orbital forcing cycle. There are also others affecting us -- all of which are periodically reviewed in the weather club. All these cycles are easily found via many peer-reviewed studies. One more thing, CO2 is plant food and has never been proven to control any climate cycles.
