Start of B.C. cruise season delayed as first planned arrival in Victoria scrapped
Gord Halverson and his wife were due to meet her brother and sister-in-law in Victoria when the vessel arrived.They’re being disembarked tomorrow in San Francisco and Princess Cruises is flying them directly home from there. And so we’re going to miss that visit,” he said.
Despite the setback, the Greater Victoria Harbour Authority remains bullish about the coming season, which it estimates will see 350 cruise ships dock in the city. The Caribbean Princess began its voyage in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., in March, and was meant to retrace its path after stopping in Vancouver next week.The next cruise ship scheduled to dock in Vancouver is Holland America’s MS Koningsdam and is scheduled to arrive Sunday, April 10.
