I wonder what is up with this. I know 2 families with 2 different lines that are taking Med cruise around the same time as our family. Neither of their cruises have cancelled Kusadasi. One is even stopping at Kusadasi and Instanbul.
It’s a matter of risk management – different lines will have various risk tolerance levels.
