Celestyal Cruises will Temporarily Suspend Calls to Israel

Following the recent events in Israel, Celestyal announced that it will temporarily suspend calling to Israel on its “Three Continents” cruise until the end of November.

“Our top priority is the health, safety, and comfort of our guests, and after careful consideration we have made the necessary updates to our itineraries by temporarily cancelling our call into Israel,” the cruise company said in an announcement on Tuesday.

Celestyal added that the situation will be monitored for any itineraries departing after the end of November.

“We are in close coordination with the authorities… Our teams will be contacting any affected customers to advise them of the updates to their itineraries and the additional provisions that have been made to ensure their continued enjoyment,” Celestyal CEO Chris Theophilides said.

The change in itinerary is valid for the seven-night “Three Continents” cruise with departures on October 21 and 28, and November 4, 11, 18 and 25.

“As a business, our thoughts are with those impacted by the events in Israel. We wish for the safety of all the souls affected and a rapid return of peace to the country,” Theophilides said.
