Key Moments
Editorial Summary
Doug Parker reports on several significant developments within the cruise industry. The Carnival Venezia has arrived in New York City after completing a fifteen day transatlantic crossing from Barcelona. The vessel is scheduled to be christened by Jay Leno before beginning its inaugural voyages from New York, which will include destinations such as Bermuda, Canada, and New England. Next year, the ship will move to Central Florida for a season before returning to Manhattan. In Europe, construction has started on a new six million dollar cruise terminal near Tarragona, Spain, to support future growth and provide better access to excursions in Barcelona. This terminal is expected to open in the spring of 2024. Additionally, Crystal Cruises has announced plans to refurbish the Crystal Serenity. The company also intends to begin homeporting the 740 passenger vessel at Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale starting next November. While the specific 2025 itineraries have not yet been released, Port Everglades is expected to serve as a primary embarkation port. The report concludes with a brief mention of cruise line stock market activity.
