Aurora Expeditions has confirmed that it will make changes to its upcoming voyages that include Russian itineraries in light of the invasion of Ukraine.

The team at Aurora is now reviewing our deployment in the region and will advise our travel partners and guests of those changes in the near future. During this time, we will continue to offer our flexible policies to accommodate these evolving conditions.

Any booked guests and trade partners of affected sailings will receive updates and specific details applicable to their booking, which will be available shortly.

Aurora Expeditions is not alone in removing Russia from its travel offerings. Some travel companies have shown their support to Ukraine by excluding Russia as a destination. Cruise lines are altering their itineraries that include Russia. Norwegian Cruise Line and MSC Cruises are excluding St. Petersburg from their itineraries. Carnival Corporation is also modifying its brands’ itineraries in line with its statement, “We stand for peace,” in support of Ukraine.
