Port of Halifax in Canada expects 152 vessels to call during its 2022 season, which will run between 26 April and 5 November.
The season will begin with the arrival of Norwegian Cruise Line’s Norwegian Getaway and American Queen Voyages’ Ocean Navigator. Other highlights will include Royal Caribbean International’s Oasis of the Seas calling on 7 June, Cunard Line’s Queen Mary 2 visiting on 6 July and again on 5 October, and Disney Cruise Lines’ Disney Magic arriving on 14 October.
“We are starting the rebuilding process in a strong position,” said Captain Allan Gray, president and CEO of Halifax Port Authority. “With 152 expected vessel calls in 2022, we are at 85 per cent of where we left off in 2019, which is a great position to be in. Nova Scotia is a place that people want to visit, and the cruise lines want to come here. We remain a safe, welcoming destination with natural beauty and authentic experiences to offer.”
