| AIDA cancels Egypt port call

GERMAN cruise company AIDA Cruises, who
operates the AIDAdiva, has cancelled plans to
visit Port Said in Egypt due to the escalating
security situation in the country.
The company, a Carnival Corporation brand
owned by Costa Crochiere, will relocate the
voyage’s stop to Ashdod in Jerusalem instead.
Plans to return to Port Said, currently slated
for 22 Jul, are being monitored as the tensions
involving the country’s president are resolved.
