Windstar Cruises also made adjustments to its itineraries due to the Russia-Ukraine crisis.

The cruise line cancelled all sailings and cruise tours in the Black Sea region.

Windstar said it would change its Baltic itineraries to replace calls in Sankt-Petersburg (Russia) on its five Baltic cruises with calls in a non-Russian cruise port.

Passengers and travel advisors will be notified of the changes.

'Black Sea Sights & Turkish Delights' was scheduled for 2 dates in 2022 (May & September), with calls at Odessa (Ukraine) and Sochi (Russia) among others. Both will be modified into a round-trip Istanbul (Turkey, Galataport) itinerary featuring Turkey and Greece.
