Any news regarding the dropping of the VAX for transatlantic/transpacific cruises.

I would like to offer my opinion of Venture Ashore, which may offer another reason not to use them. I recently found out they were Shore Trips. I have used Shore Trips in the past and never had an issue. So I looked at Venture Ashore for my trip to Greece and Turkey. My issue is with the pricing. I was looking at a 4 hour group tour to in Chania, Greece, which is priced at $430/pp, yes, you read that right, a total of $860 for two on a 4 hour sightseeing trip. I "chatted" with the company asking the question why this and other trips of theirs were very expensive. They replied, "in Greece the tour guides are doing extensive training." I am sure that most countries, who train tour guides have similar training and standards. I did tell the person that and that I had looked elsewhere and other sites, were less expensive. They apparently don't care. Predict, they won't be in business long.
