Europe is an interesting piece in the global cruise puzzle in many regards. More Europeans are crui- sing than ever before and the Eu- ropean source market is growing at a historical rate of 11%. Four million cruises were purchased by Europeans in 2007 and 4.3 million passengers boarded their cruise ships in the Old Continent.

till, the Europeans are nowhere near S the Americans in their cruise enthusi- asm – only one percent of the Europeans are cruise-goers where as in the US that share is three times higher. Another issue, of course, is that Eu- ropean destinations are very appealing to the cruise patrons around the world. The Baltic Sea, for instance, has become an en- during success: between 2001–2008 the number of cruise passengers in the Bal- tic increased by an average annual rate of 13.1 percent. In 2008, the number of cruise passengers to this part of the world increased by a whopping 25 percent. The busiest ports in the region are Copenhagen, St. Petersburg, Tallinn, Stockholm and Helsinki. There are also considerable upgrades in the works: Co- penhagen, for one, is in the process of ac- quiring more berth space for cruise vessels Mr. Bo Larsen, Director of Cruise Baltic. and expects to be capable of handling the largest cruise vessels by 2012. will comprise as many as seven cruise lin- name for themselves in this regard as well.

seatec 2/2009 7 Photo: Cruise Baltic “The introduction of Disney is a great quality stamp for the region – it means that we have been successful in pursuing fam- ily-friendliness.” Larsen goes on to add that the Eu- ropean market is simply too big to ignore at the moment – for some cruise lines, half of the sourcing consists of Europeans.

VALUE FOR MONEY The Baltic Sea Region is not the most in- expensive corner of the world, but it re- mains a strong favourite of both the oper- ators and the public. Larsen explains that the Baltic delivers good value and the ports and the way of doing business is well-or- ganised in international comparison. The Mediterranean Sea, on the oth- er hand, features ports which need to up- grade their infrastructure in order to stay in the game. Drawing from its reputation as a year-round cruise destination, the Med- iterranean will be a force to be reckoned with in the future as well. For example MSC has been investing in shoreside fa- cilities in Italian ports such as Naples and Civitavecchia. Barcelona remains the destination to beat in the south: passenger numbers for 2008 exceeded two million, marking an 18% increase.

TUI CRUISES DEBUTING The European cruise market is deemed so attractive that new alliances are forged to explore the field. For instance, TUI Cruises is a new joint venture of Royal Caribbean Beautiful Stockholm has strong position as a turnaround destination. Cruises Ltd and TUI AG.

The recently delivered cruise vessels “Celebrity Solstice” and “AIDAluna” are another proof of Meyer’s excellence and innova- tiveness. Remarkably enough this top ranking yard has never seen a change of ownership during more than 200 years of history: It conti- nues to be owned by the Meyer fa- mily, with Dipl.-Ing.
