Holland America Line said it will forgo eight scheduled calls in Acapulco, Mexico, citing security concerns.

The calls are scheduled on seven Panama Canal cruises and a South America voyage in 2017-18.

HAL said it would replace Acapulco with other ports in Mexico.

Acapulco, in the Mexican state of Guerrero, has been one of the cruise destinations in Mexico most affected by drug-related violence and has been on and off cruise itineraries in recent years.
