Holland America Line Replaces 2011 Egypt Port Calls
At Holland America Line the safety of our guests and crew is our top priority. Therefore, as a result of the U.S. Department of State Travel Warning to defer all non-essential travel to Egypt due to continuing uncertainties regarding the restructuring of government institutions and the unresolved security situation there, we have replaced calls in Egypt on the cruises below. If the Travel Warning is withdrawn or revised prior to the time originally scheduled to call in Egypt, we will try to reinstate the original itinerary if at all possible.
Affected travel agents and guests are being notified.
