Seatrade Cruise Med 2018 Trends in the Med

The Med and its adjoining seas continues to be the 2nd most popular cruise destination as MedCruise ports welcomed a record 2132 average passenger per call in 2017. Spain and Italy remain the most popular cruise destinations as we saw growth in their major ports, whilst Eastern Med is set for a revival as ships are returning to Egypt and Turkey. 2018 the Med is welcoming new deliveries including the new world's largest cruise ship 'Symphony of the Seas', and the world's first LNG-powered cruise ship 'AIDAnova'. The passenger shipbuilding and repair sector is expanding thanks to the buoyant market. 2018 is to be another exciting year for cruise!
