Libya a No-Go for Seabourn

Seabourn Cruise Line announced today that it has cancelled its calls in Libya scheduled for two cruises in 2007:

May 7, 2007 – Seabourn Spirit from Alexandria, Egypt to Rome, Italy
Instead of two days at Tripoli and one day at Derna, Libya, calls will be made at Kusadasi, Turkey (for Ephesus), Mykonos, Greece and Itea, Greece (near the Delphi ruins).

October 27, 2007 – Seabourn Legend from Rome, Italy to Lisbon, Portugal
Two days in Tripoli will be replaced with Naples (Italy), Palermo (Sicily) and Valletta (Malta).

Seabourn's president Pamela C. Conover said, "We regret the need to change any itinerary, but we have repeatedly petitioned the Libyan authorities to allow all of our guests into their country and they have shown no indication that they will do so. Fortunately, there are very attractive alternatives available, and we have added several."

For more information, discuss the itinerary change with your travel agent or contact Seabourn at (800) 929-9391 or Seabourn.com.
