Cruise Line Updates Cruises Due to Port Limitations

Carnival Corporation’s Costa Cruises, one of the leading cruise lines in Europe, has updated their 2020-2021 winter cruises due to limitations in place in some European countries. This includes canceling Caribbean cruises on one of their cruise ships.

Costa Smeralda, the cruise line’s flagship powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG), will extend her current cruises only in Italy until the end of February 2021, visiting Savona, La Spezia, Cagliari, Messina, Naples and Civitavecchia/Rome. This one-week itinerary will replace the one in Italy, France and Spain that the ship would have offered starting from November 14, 2020.

The Costa Smeralda itinerary sails guests to some of the most popular art cities and natural areas in Italy, contributing to the recovery of the national tourism ecosystem, which is also receiving benefits from AIDAblu, from the Costa Group’s Germany-based AIDA Cruises, which has been calling only in Italy since mid-October.

Costa Deliziosa will continue operating her current one-week itinerary in Italy and Greece until January 3, 2021 – calling at Trieste, Katakolon/Olympia, Athens, Heraklion/Crete and Bari, instead of visiting Montenegro and Croatia as originally planned.

Costa Diadema will postpone the start of her long cruises in the Mediterranean to April 6, 2021, offering 14-day cruises to Turkey and 14-day cruises to Egypt and Greece, as scheduled.

Finally, Costa Favolosa cruises in the Caribbean are canceled and the ship will return to operate from April 2, 2021, with mini-cruises in the Mediterranean.

The 2021 World Tour of Costa Deliziosa is also canceled, with the possibility for guests to book the 2022 edition.
