Gibraltar is scheduled to have 254 port calls and more than 400,000 passengers this year, up from 235 port calls last year.
A new glass observation deck was recently opened by Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) and has become a very popular attraction among cruise passengers, and in addition, by hosting the MedCruise assembly last year they managed to impress several itinerary planners and industry executives.
For shipping companies, calling at Gibraltar offers advantages such as duty-free provisioning, and the proximity to the airport is convenient for crew changes. The port offers incentives for more environmentally friendly vessels, and in the future, they plan to expand the berths and terminal.
