MSC Cruises has cancelled calls in Turkish ports amid security fears for its guests.
It has replaced stops in Istanbul and Izmir for MSC Magnifica with Athens and Mykonos until the end of the Mediterranean season in October.
A statement said the decision was taken ‘amid growing concerns by guests as a result of the recent tragic events in Istanbul’.
A suicide bomb blast in Istanbul last week claimed the lives of 10 German tourists.
MSC’s decision comes after Crystal Cruises also announced it was to suspend all calls to Turkish ports.
Celebrity Cruises announced last year it would not overnight in Istanbul in 2016 and around the same time Disney Cruise Line removed Greece and Turkey from its 12-night Mediterranean itinerary for this summer.
