Costa Cruises reviews its itineraries in Italy to respect government containment measures

Following the new measures introduced last evening by the Italian Government in an effort to contain the health emergency on the national territory, Costa Cruises has reviewed the itineraries of its ships calling at Italian ports up to April 3.
"As an Italian company and the only cruise operator flying the Italian flag, we are committed to guarantee compliance with the regulations and support to the Italian authorities and the community in this extraordinary effort to face the current situation of emergency" said Neil Palomba, President of Costa Cruises.

Cruises currently underway will call at Italian ports only to allow guests to disembark and return to their home, with no excursions or new embarkations.
The company is promptly informing all guests involved by these changes, offering them a future cruise credit so that they will be able to enjoy the cruise experience at a later date.

In the past days, Costa Cruises had already cancelled all outgoing Italian guests departing from cruises outside the Mediterranean in an effort to contain risks, preserve the environment and enforce the specific measures issued by the Italian Government.
The protection of health and safety of guests and crew members is the utmost priority for Costa Cruises. On board Costa ships, the level of sanitization has been increased to ensure maximum hygiene and safety for guests and crew members. The Company has adopted rigid health screenings upon embarkation since the beginning of the Covid-19 emergency.
