Vasco Da Gama and Mein Schiff 5 arrived at the Colombo port at 7.00 a.m. and MS Seven Seas Navigator docked at 1.30 p.m. with approximately 4,000 passengers from all three vessels on a single day.
The cruise season began last month with the arrival of ‘Resilient Lady’ from Virgin Voyages, a part of Sir Richard Branson’s renowned group.
The visit of Marella Discovery 2 that arrived early had special significance, marking its first return to Sri Lanka post-COVID and the first turnaround operation in the country.
Operated by TUI, this cruise brought three flights to Colombo for disembarking cruise passengers.
