Thanks for the reassurance Notamermaid! We sail on March 11 from Budapest to Bucharest-one of the earliest cruises of the season and are hoping the water levels cooperate.

Please share any brief updates you can. We are heading up river on March 29, 2024 from Bucharest to Vienna with Viking. 

Enjoy your trip!

Goldwingers - we had the same issue - radio silence followed by 'The Big Change'.  We actually had 5 rooms books on this cruise and are now seeking refunds on 3 of them.  And like you, we had additional travel booked on both sides of the river cruise - a few nights in Amsterdam for our entire group and following the float up stream (feels like we are without a paddle) nights booked in multiple cities including Lyon, London, Florence, Montalcino, and Rome.  We have a lot of rebooking to do  😞 

Additionally, Viking has dropped our ship board credits ($375 per person x 10).  Now we have to have another conversation about this too...the logs on the fire are burning bright at the moment 🤬 

Good to hear some cruising is still on schedule (for now)!  

Unfortunately our Viking Rhine trip scheduled for Sept 16, 2021 from Amsterdam to Basel was involuntarily canceled/moved by Viking just 3 days ago to October 2021.  We declined their new date and have rebooked for March 31, 2022.  In doing so our party of 8 has now shrunk to just 4.  Dang Covid strikes again - put me in the bucket as ready for this to be over!
