We received an e-mail from our TA today informing us that the itinerary has been changed on our up and coming cruise. Sadly Egypt is now off the list.
Although initially disappointed we think the replacement ports are equally as exciting for us as they are 3 we have not visited before. Aqaba giving us the opportunity to visit Petra for the first time.
- Good afternoon,We have today received a notification from Costa regarding your cruise in March.Due to the political unrest in Egypt, the ports visiting Egypt have now been changed.The planned calls in Egypt at Safaga, Sharm El Sheikh and Alexandria are replaced by highly appealing alternatives: Aqaba (Jordan), Eilath (Israel), Heraklion (Greece) respectively, offering the opportunity to plan excursions to Petra, Jerusalem, the Dead Sea, Masada or other magnificent locations.
