Found a trip we are interested in, probably will not book :(

Found a trip we are interested in, but concerns of cancellations, changes of excursions etc that people are mentioning will probably keep us from booking with ABD.

For us, this would be a post-retirement trip/celebration, and while we have been to Europe several times, a river cruise is on my bucket list, but is only a 1-time chance for us. (Ie we have too many other travel ideas too!).

There are plenty of river cruise options out there, including booking directly with Ama since ABD just charters the ship. Nothing on Cruisecritic is indicating that river cruises are being canceled left and right.

Luckily there are a lot of river cruise companies out there.

I agree with aggiedog that the ABD river cruises are more scalable and are much less likely to cancel. But it's also a competitive market.
