Itinerary Change #2

We are currently in Haifa, Israel, which is a port of call on Insignia's eastbound TransAtlantic.

Got an email from Oceania today advising us of our second itinerary change to RTW2023. The call on Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia is no more.

Frankly, we were expecting this from the moment Russia invaded Ukraine. The question was whether we'd get just another day at sea or another port of call. We got our answer today.

Oceania has jiggled the itinerary to add Kushiro, Japan before we begin the run of sea days that will take us to the Aleutian Islands. So, while P-K has technically been replaced with a day at sea, we did get a new-to-us port before we leave Japanese waters. We're good with the change.

I'm sure there will be more changes. We just hope they aren't as drastic as the ones RTW2022 saw this year.Read more
