Since
the 11 March earthquake in Japan, Silversea has been closely monitoring the
conditions for travel in the country. As the ongoing situation in Japan has the
potential to affect certain 2011 Silver
Shadow voyages, Silversea has decided to modify
these itineraries in order to avoid last-minute changes for
their guests. The modifications are briefly recapped as follows:
Voyage 3125
is scheduled to depart
Seward, Alaska on 8 September, with two additional days at sea replacing the
calls in Japan. On 23 September, the voyage now concludes in Incheon (Seoul),
South Korea.
Voyage 3126
will depart 23 September from
Incheon (Seoul), South Korea. The calls in Japan and Taiwan will be replaced by
calls in Qingdao, Jiangyin, Nanjing and Xiamen, China, as well as an additional
day and overnight in Hong Kong.
Voyage 3127
scheduled to depart Hong
Kong on 5 October, replaces Keelung with a call in Chan May (Hue), replaces the
overnight in Shanghai with an overnight in Ho Chi Minh City, replaces the calls
in Nagasaki and Kagoshima with an overnight in Bangkok, and replaces the
overnight in Osaka with calls in Ko Samui and Kuantan. The voyage concludes on
17 October in Singapore.
Voyage 3128
will depart 17 October
from Singapore and replaces the original itinerary with an all-new Indonesia
itinerary calling in Bangka Island, Semarang (overnight), Probolinggo, Bali (2
days), Lombok,Komodo, Karimunjawa and Jakarta. The voyage returns to Singapore
on 31 October, as scheduled.
We will update this information, should there be any changes. Our thoughts and
prayers continue to go out to the people of Japan during this difficult time.
