What the Future May Look Like..



     Cruise Ships have steadily
    increased in length over the
          past 20 years…
      and the trend continues.

Opportunity…. But with a challenge.
What the Future May Look Like..



With our present cruise berth capacity, on
any given day:

Due to ever increasing vessel sizes, we are
rapidly becoming a “two-ship cruise port”.
We can only accommodate one vessel in
excess of 300m overall length.

New Berth Length – 645 m            New Wharf Area
The Early 90’s

 Vessels were
often docked at
cargo facilities.
Don’t want a comment like this:



  “We did a shore excursion and walked
around Saint John - all very pleasant but
   unfortunately we docked at a cargo
 facility and were quite far from the city
center. This wasn’t particularly inviting or
 convenient compared to the other ships
  that were at modern cruise piers. Not
           sure why we weren’t.”
Thank-You!
