Around 200 Advantage members are onboard Ambassador Cruise Line’s Ambience for the Latitude Cruise Conference. But plans to call at Amsterdam have been shelved “as a precaution” because of planned protests on Friday and Saturday.
The ship had been due to dock at Amsterdam’s cruise terminal on Friday (25 October) as part of a three-night Amsterdam City Break itinerary from London. But Ambassador has now decided to berth overnight at the nearby port of IJmuiden, which is about a one-hour drive from the city.
“The safety, security and comfort of all our guests, crew and partners is paramount,” said a spokesperson for Ambassador.
