This significantly affects the second leg cape town up.  Eight ports and five countries which made the second leg interesting are now pinched for the first.  More sea days. I believe the Cape Town start point is now different days too (edit one week later) but have yet to check.  Will be looking for reimbursement and compensation of costs for flights etc. Of course I have full sympathy for the situation Seabourn are facing and for all those guests on the first leg and round trip.  However, this was a special trip with significant time off work and I am not prepared to pay handsomely for what is now a shortened, repositioning cruise on the northward bound option.

I have received no notification of this from Seabourn.  Just rung the travel agent and they have a letter that doesn’t offer a refund or cancellation option but has completely different start and end points and dates different by weeks with 8 ports dropped (northbound leg).

Sorry.  Misadvised.  I now have the letter and a refund is an option.

We are on the original CT to Las Palmas segment so losing four ports is a deal breaker for me.

Me too. It was actually 8 ports and 5 countries when I looked.  So cancelled
