Cruises before and after the August 15 BIE cruises are keeping to the original itinerary for the most part. I saw only one other with our new (worse) itinerary. The Isle of Man may be great, but it's pretty shabby to have Belfast removed from the itinerary. I called Viking to register my displeasure at this change. I got no real answer, of course.

I'm a first-time cruiser. We had initially signed up for a Viking Ocean Cruise, British Isles Explorer, due to leave near the beginning of August, 2023. Some months ago, we were told that cruise would not run, and we were scheduled for the same itinerary, leaving about a week later. We just now received email telling us that THREE stops on the itinerary are being changed. There was no explanation. In two of the cases, I don't mind so much, but they got rid of Belfast, the only stop in Northern Ireland. I am really unhappy about this. When looking at their web site now, it shows that most of the BIE cruises in that time frame are keeping the original itinerary. I wish I knew why ours and one other are different. Is this typical for Viking? I thought they were supposed to be better than this.
