[Connecticutcruiser]

Is anyone aware of eastern med port cancellations/adjustments (Turkey or Greece) because of the unrest in the middle east?

I have not heard anything specific but was just wondering given the ports especially in Turkey and their proximity to the situation.

The Turkish border of concern - and it's of concern for the number of refugees, not for incursions & fighting - is 500 miles from the nearest (rarely-used) cruise port of Alanya, and over 700 miles from the ports of Kusadasi & Istanbul.

 

No worries

I went back and read the OP question. Sorry.  I should be more clear.  Although this Princess Cruise did have a cancellation to the Kusadasi port, it was reported in a roll call that the reason provided was ship congestion.  Your original question asked if we knew of any port changes due to unrest.

Was just on a HAL cruise that stopped in Kusadasi. No apparent issues. Life was proceeding as usual.
