Medevac off Tenerife

On March 23, 2025, the 'Seabourn Venture', which was sailing 100 nautical miles from Tenerife, enroute from Montevideo to Lisbon, requested the urgent medevac of an injured crew member. The RCC of Salvamento Marítimo in Tenerife mobilized the SAR helicopter Helimer 202, which hoisted the conscious victim and transferred him directly to a hospital for further medical care on a higher level. The cruise ship reached the port of destination on March 25.

Cruise ship changed itinerary due to inoperable stabilizer system

The 'Seabourn Venture', which sailed from Ushuaia on Febn 11, 2025, has been forced to revise its itinerary due to unexpected problems with its stabilizer system, which has been deemed inoperable by Seabourn’s technical team. Despite the ship's inherent seaworthiness, the stabilizer malfunction has necessitated a significant change in the planned route. The ship will no longer call at South Georgia and will now dedicate ten days to what Seabourn is calling the "Seabourn Antarctic Experience," with five additional days spent exploring the Antarctic Peninsula and two days added to the Falkland Islands portion of the voyage. The extended time in Antarctica will provide greater flexibility for exploration, including the possibility of venturing south of the Antarctic Circle. The Fleet Operations Centerwas planning a route for the smoothest possible sailing. This might involve additional schedule modifications to optimize the Drake Passage crossing. To compensate guests for the inconvenience and itinerary change, Seabourn was offering a $1,000 refundable onboard credit. In addition, passengers will receive a Future Cruise Credit equivalent to 25% of their paid cruise fare, applicable to both cruise fares and non-cruise fare items like pre- and post-cruise packages.
