Evrima is now scheduled to sail May 6, 2022, from Lisbon, Portugal.

It had been planned to debut Nov. 10 in the Caribbean.

'While we are eager to welcome guests on board Evrima, we have had to reevaluate the timing of our first voyage given the rapidly changing circumstances and their impact on Evrima’s completion,' said Doug Prothero, CEO of The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection. 'We remain excited to set sail in the spring and thank our guests for their understanding and patience as we continue to navigate this unprecedented global environment.'

The company is reaching out to impacted customers and their travel agents. Passengers may  reschedule to an available itinerary in 2022 or 2023 or discuss reimbursement options.
