St, Petersburg features on a significant number of itineraries across Carnival Corp. brands
In light of the attacks by Russia in Ukraine, Carnival Corp. brands will be modifying their itineraries in the coming week.

'We stand for peace,' Carnival Corp. spokesman Roger Frizzell said Saturday.

Significant move

This is a signficant move representing a substantial number of calls, figuring in AIDA Cruises, Costa Cruises, Princess Cruises, Holland America Line, P&O Cruises, Cunard and Seabourn, which all operate Baltic itineraries that were to call at St. Petersburg starting in the spring. It's possible Black Sea itineraries could be impacted, too.

Specifics to be advised

The changes will be advised once alternative ports can be confirmed.

The Carnival Corp. brands join Atlas Ocean Voyages, Norwegian Cruise Line, Viking and Windstar Cruises in revising their itineraries due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
