Chapter D - Iceland, Norway & Faroes

Chapter E - Associated Members

Matching cruise industry growth and cruise port capacities Cruise Europe and its more than 100 member ports between Gibraltar in the South, Kirkenes in the North and Lulea in the Baltic still has the potential for growth. Only 75% of the potential cruise ports along the Atlantic coast are members; also one has to include the potential of the cruise ports in Greenland and the area east of the North Cape. The tourist organisations of the ports, the regions, the countries can help as members to make Cruise Europe stronger in marketing the destination Northern Europe to the cruise lines. The aim for Cruise Europe is to match the ongoing growth of the cruise industry in offering better infrastructure in the member ports, which means more cruise terminals, or to point out the diversity of the many destinations and attractions in Northern Europe. Cruise Europe has to open a dialogue with the cruise lines with the intention to spread the growing number of cruise ships and the even bigger cruise passenger capacities over more ports, over more cruise areas, over more countries. The success of the Baltic is also possible in the areas of West Europe, of UK & Ireland and of Norway and Iceland. Cruise lines have to be convinced that all four cruise areas in Northern Europe have equal attractions and many Captain Michael McCarthy good ports to host the growing cruise fleet. Chairman The members of Cruise Europe have to market their cruise area as an attractive cruise Cruise Europe destination in its own. To sell just one port to the cruise line does not help. Cruise ports have to work together to form an itinerary, which works for the cruise lines. Despite the global recession the cruise industry will grow because of the high customer satisfaction. Nowhere customers can find such a perfect holiday: visiting many new destinations, being served with great food in an excellent manner, enjoying state-of-the-art cruise ships with outstanding entertainment, wellness, relaxation and fun. Cruise Europe is part of this cruise product and partner of the cruise lines. Let’s grow with our customers.

Our longstanding history is built on the extensive experience of our team and our commitment to preserving Iceland’s fragile natural environment.

Cruise Services:

We have an impressive and forever growing list of shore excursions from all ports in Iceland. We oﬀer a full-range of cruise services including turnaround operations, expedition services, pre- and post- tours, and overland experiences. Our success is driven by our team’s commitment to attaining results the right way - by operating responsibly and executing with excellence.

We operate in all Icelandic ports, in 2019 this included 23 ports and 412 port calls.

Cruise Europe has 120 members in Northern and Atlantic Europe, in a geographical spread from Lisbon - Iceland - North Cape and St. Petersburg. Our four very diﬀerent regions oﬀer a diversity of experiences as to history, culture and events.

White nights in the north, hot sunny days in the south. Very old and new exciting architecture as well as very old and new exciting art. Museums where the guest can get an insight into all aspects of Europe's history, traditions, handicrafts and present day life. All regions give the guest an opportunity to feel the beat of the European cities, shop for the unique design of that special area and savour the national food and drink of the countries where the ships dock.

Nature in Europe is everything from pristine meadows to busy beaches, great coast lines, fjords and islands, walks in birch woods or cypress groves and well-kept golf courses - each with its own characteristic.

Cruising Europe is a movable feast and has become a popular destination over the past decade - there is still a lot to be discovered. Europe is no longer only a summer destination. Cruise lines visit our ports all year. Christmas markets around Europe have become popular events that attract cruise calls, and the number of winter cruises looking for the northern light have increased dramatically the last few years.

Europe is a region with good infrastructure. Our members keep investing in piers, terminals, waste reception facilities and new shore tours. Every month we bring the broader cruise industry news of port developments or new infrastructure up and down our region.

In a world of geopolitical challenges, it's fair to say that Europe is politically stable. The lines are not likely to face massive disruption to their itineraries in our region due to political issues if they decide to deploy their vessels in Northern & Atlantic Europe.

The Cruise Europe website and port handbook will give you a good general overview and a deeper insight into all the possibilities and temptations of Cruise Europe's unique destinations.

The key thing is that it can be updated regularly. The cruise lines can choose a region, a country or an itinerary. By choosing this way of presenting our wonderful region we have modern tool for the beneﬁt of the cruise lines.

After all, that is what Cruise Europe is all about. Bringing the members and the cruise lines together.
