Encore 21st November 2024 Dubai to Singapore just been cancelled!

[mklions]

Yesterday I received sad notice via our TA that the sailing on 21st November 2024 Dubai to Singapore has been cancelled due to ongoing issues in the Red Sea.

where will the Encore now sail instead? Seaborne have offered us a 10% discount on another sailing should we wish to rebook.

Sorry to hear that. Seems that Seabourn doesn't want to wait until the last minute to adjust their itineraries, which is a good thing. Very interested to know what the new itineraries will be...they didn't give you any idea?

No we have no idea on where the Encore will sail instead. Perhaps others on this site may have more information?

We were on the March 2024 Singapore - Dubai sailing that was cancelled.  The Encore sailed directly from Singapore to the Med around the horn of Africa without passengers.

 

My guess they will sail from the Med to Singapore without passengers in November.

That decision was only made late January 24, which was too late to create new voyages for March.

This time they could create and sell a voyage around the Horn as other cruise lines have done.

Cunard has just announced world cruise 25 will not go through Suez and thus adjusted ports. Sojourn going from Cape Town to Europe February 25.
