DUBAI IS GOING TO RECEIVE 300 THOUSAND CRUISE TOURISTS THIS SEASON

In the 2013-14 season, Dubai expects to receive 300 thousand tourists from the water and further strengthen its reputation as a center for cruise tourism. This year, 20 international operators will work in the Dubai sector, including Costa, Aida, Royal Caribbean, TUI and MSC.

It is worth recalling that work is currently ongoing to expand the capacities of the port of Rashid and the areas of the Dubai Cruise Terminal, as a result of which it will be able to receive up to 500 thousand tourists annually. In total, 93 calls will be made at the Dubai port this season, with seven ships arriving at this harbor on the Persian Gulf for the first time.
