Travel Advisory - Update

This information is current for the week of May 4th. Many cruise lines are altering itineraries as a result of the Swine Flu concern in Mexico. Likewise, some hotels and airlines are being flexible with their policies for reservations traveling to Mexico. We know that customers who are currently scheduled to visit Mexico in the coming weeks are anxious to receive the latest information regarding their vacation. Please understand that cruise lines, hotels and airlines are making decisions regarding travel options on a week-by-week basis as the situation develops. If you are traveling after mid June, there is likely not solid information regarding your travel at that time. Please check back with us next week.

If you are traveling in May or early June, please read through the following information….

Carnival Cruise Lines has canceled port of call visits to Mexico for 15 of its ships that are currently operating voyages and had scheduled stops in Mexico. Their schedules have been modified. In many instances, the modification simply involved substituting an alternate port. We are emailing the revised itineraries to those booked on these sailings. We will be calling those customers whose length of trip has been changed or whose cruise has been cancelled.

Royal Caribbean has announced the temporary suspension of ports of calls in Mexico involving four of their ships - Enchantment of the Seas, Freedom of the Seas, Liberty of the Seas and Mariner of the Seas. It also involves two additional ships scheduled to make upcoming Mexico port calls as they reposition - Serenade of the Seas and Radiance of the Seas. For all ships but the Mariner of the Seas, we will be sending emails detailing the changes. The Mariner change is more significant, and we will be reaching out to those booked on those sailings to assist.

If you are booked on a land package, many hotel and airlines are willing to make changes to the reservation at this time.

For additional information please check the links below. As a result of the heightened level of concern amongst travelers, you will find that our phone hold times have increased as fellow customers inquire as to the status of their vacation plans. If you are not traveling within the next couple of weeks, please do not call as our hold times are lengthy and we need to assist those traveling immediately. We hope that this information has been of assistance.
