Cruise Ships Will Make Regular Calls on St. Croix in 2009
Some great news from the Source today:
"April 22, 2008 -- After years of being passed by thousands of revenue-bearing cruise ships, St. Croix is back on the itinerary for cruise-ship calls.
Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines has included St. Croix on the itineraries of two of its large ships, Gov. John DeJongh Jr. announced Tuesday afternoon. Both the Adventure of the Seas and the Serenade of the Seas will call at St. Croix starting in 2009.
The ships will call year round, bringing more than 5,000 tourists to St. Croix every two weeks. The return of the ships is not without a cost, however. Royal Caribbean has asked for modifications to the channel to accommodate the large ships, which will require significant investment by the Port Authority."
