Further inspection of the propeller, forced Azamara to cancel the current sailing and has since had to cancel the 3rd March cruise.
The Azamara Journey is operating as normal, but sailing at a reduced speed. The ship is expected to arrive in Kyoto on February 28th, where passengers will be met by Azamara’s President and CEO, Larry Pimentel, and Bert Van Middendorp, Vice President of Operations.
When the ship docks on 28th February, guests will remain on board the ship until March 2nd, where they will be flown to Shanghai and provided hotels for the night.
The Azamara Journey was originally scheduled to disembark in Shanghai on March 3rd, but this sailing has had to be cancelled, so that maintenance can be carried out.
