Facebook Announcement about cancellations.

From the press release dated June 3, 2013

A full refund and a $500 future cruise credit will be issued.

River Ambassador 
Grand Danube & Prague.  Prague to Belgrade.  June 7 cruise/tour start date.
Danube Discovery & Prague.  Prague to Vienna.   June 7 cruise/tour start date.

River Beatrice
Enchanting Danube.  Passau to Budapest.  June 9 cruise/tour start date.

We would also like to note that several cruises already in progress have been impacted. In these cases our ship staff and European-based headquarters staff are working on itinerary deviations and, in some cases, canceling the remainder of the cruises. In the case of a cruise cancellation with guests already on board, we will be providing a full refund and a future cruise credit. Our guests will be given the option to stay on board the ship while we assist them in securing alternative arrangements or flights home.

The rise and fall of water levels can change rapidly, and we will continue to monitor the situation closely. We will continue to evaluate cruises scheduled to depart after June 9 and will provide a timely update to our website.

Please do not hesitate to contact your travel agent or a Uniworld representative at 1-800-733-7820, Monday – Friday, 6:00 am to 6:00 pm PDT, and 6:30 am to 3:00 pm PDT on Saturdays, should you have any further questions.
