THE debut of The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection’s new ship Evrima has been pushed back again, this time until Nov.
The cruise line said in Jan it would begin cruising in Jul (CW 27 Jan), but has blamed pandemic-related travel restrictions and regulations in Europe, where the ship was scheduled to sail.
“While we remain excited by the promise of future travel, given the unpredictable environment created by existing restrictions and the inability to safely gather our [crew] at this time, we have made the difficult decision to forgo our 2021 Mediterranean season,” Chief Executive Officer Douglas Prothero said.
“We look forward to welcoming guests on board in the Caribbean this fall,” he added.
