    Port Royal gets another ship call

    Port Royal has secured a second cruise ship to call at the port, but not until 2022.

    Crystal Cruises, an American cruise line based in Los Angeles, California, has listed the Port Royal cruise port as one of 219 destinations it will explore in 83 countries in 2022.

    Development of the port, which will be served by a floating pier, is ongoing. The pier itself is expected to be installed by this weekend, and more work is to be done on land.

    The Port Authority of Jamaica is investing about US$40 million in Port Royal, inclusive of the cost of the SeaWalk floating pier, a cruise terminal, restoration of Fort Charles, a museum and a live archaeological dig.

    The cruise ship has the capacity to carry up to 1,800 passengers and is expected to bring mainly European visitors to the island. Port Royal is to become a second Jamaican stop on its itinerary.

    Toot Toot. I was just about to post it.

    Look like it is going to draw some dollars from high end ships.

      I was in Port Royal a month ago and the town and the product need some serious financial investments. The town won’t be ready for tourists by January.

        Good news. I was in Nassau the other day and there were 5 ships docked at the same time. I was amazed.

            While I was in Kingston I went to the new Gloria’s on the waterfront and was gobsmacked to see about 7 cargo ships waiting in line, stretched across the harbor. A week later on my way over to Port Royal, there were another set of ships parked around the harbor. There’s going to be a traffic jam of ships when those cruise lines come calling. The restaurants that I ate at were teeming with patrons both locals, expatriates and foreigners.

                  It is going to take some time but the tourist that are coming seems to be more interested in the history and culture. Let us see how it is in January.

                    Logistic development — a catalyst for driving economies

                    At the opening ceremony for Celebration Brand's Limited's (CBL) Logic One warehouse on Tuesday (August 20), Anthony Hylton, Member of Parliament (MP) for Western St Andrew, expressed elation that his vision for logistic development within the country has now started to take root.

                    Hylton's expression of satisfaction came as a result of the warehouse aiding in the coming together and expansion of efficiencies within the productive sector.
