As a result, we have suspended charter arrangements with the operator of 50 Years of Victory. "We also have re-designed itineraries on four upcoming Arctic programs aboard the Sea Spirit. These 14-day voyages will continue to operate roundtrip out of Longyearbyen, Svalbard, on the same dates in July and August, but will not venture into the Russian territorial waters of Franz Josef Land. Instead, the program will provide guests with an in-depth exploration and circumnavigation of the Svalbard Archipelago or a voyage to the Northeast Greenland National Park, depending on the departure date." The revised programs can be found on Poseidon's website: July 10-23 Svalbard Circumnavigation and Kvitøya (https://poseidonexpeditions.com/ July 22-August 4 Svalbard Circumnavigation and Kvitøya (https://poseidonexpeditions.com/ August 3-16 Svalbard Circumnavigation and Kvitøya (https://poseidonexpeditions.com/ August 15-28 Svalbard & Northeast Greenland National Park (https://poseidonexpeditions.com/ Travelers aboard the four departures in July and August aboard the Sea Spirit are welcome to keep their reservations and enjoy the new itineraries. Guests booked on any of the affected Summer 2022 programs can request a cruise credit for any future cruise with Poseidon Expeditions or a full refund. Poseidon has chartered and operated the Madeira-registered Sea Spirit year-round since 2015 from SunStone Ships, Inc. of Miami FL.
