Crystal Expedition Cruises postponed the launch of its first
ship, the Crystal Endeavor.
Citing the temporary closure of MV Werften shipbuilding
facilities in Germany due to the Covid-19 pandemic and uncertainty regarding
when production will resume, Crystal delayed the ship’s previously planned
August launch until Nov. 14.
Crystal canceled all scheduled Endeavor cruises through Oct.
31. The Endeavor’s maiden voyage will now be the “Tasmania & Fjords of New
Zealand” 14-day cruise.
The company is reaching out to passengers and travel
advisors about rebooking options.
