Due to ongoing conflicts in the Red Sea, Crystal is canceling Crystal Symphony’s March 27-April 13 itinerary from Mumbai to Piraeus and rerouting some segments of Crystal Serenity’s 2024 World Cruise.

The company said the modifications being made to Crystal Serenity’s World Cruise will not affect the length of the itinerary, which will culminate in Miami on June 8, 2024, as originally planned.

“In light of the current situation in the Red Sea, Crystal remains committed to prioritizing the safety and well-being of our guests and crew,” the line said.

“We are in the process of notifying all impacted guests on both ships. We greatly appreciate our guests and crew for their understanding and patience during this process.”

Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony re-entered service in the summer of  2023, following major renovations by A&K Group, which acquired the two ultra-vessels in the aftermath liquidation of Crystal’s parent company, Genting Hong Kong.
