This is the second increase in 14 months, raising the charge from $16.00 to $18.00 for standard staterooms and $18.50 to $20.50 for suites. The Carnival Jubilee, set to launch from Texas in December, recently achieved a milestone by becoming the first Carnival vessel to navigate the river Ems in northwest Germany. This transfer from the Meyer Werft shipyard in Papenburg, Germany, to Eemshaven, Netherlands, was executed smoothly, with the ship being sailed backward towards the North Sea, assisted by two tugboats. Sitka resident is making another attempt to limit cruise traffic in the city of Sitka through a ballot initiative. His first petition was denied, but he has now submitted a second one to establish a “tourism” section of the Sitka General Code and include fines for boats exceeding visitor limits.
