Five cruise ships berthed at the same time at Dubai’s Mina Rashid last week, providing 25,000 pax and crew to Dubai in one day and putting the facility to a major test. Together, Costa Serena, AIDA Diva, MSC Orchestra, Amadea & Costa neoRiviera were all handled efficiently, resulting in praise from cruise port management. “The success in handling five mega passenger vessels at one time demonstrates Dubai’s ability to embrace the growth in cruise tourism and the readiness of the infrastructure at Mina Rashid,” DP World chairman HE Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem commented. Cunard’s Queen Mary 2 is set to arrive in the Arabian port today.
