The Port Authority of Las Palmas, together with its cruise operator Global Ports, has unveiled the new cruise terminal at the Port of Las Palmas. “The works are progressing well and we estimate they will be completed by the end of September. We are very proud of the new terminal that the Port of Las Palmas will have, the largest in Europe, and of the collaborative work and relationship we have with Global Ports, which has also built the new terminals at the ports of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura,” stated Beatriz Calzada, President of the Port Authority of Las Palmas.
During the Seatrade trade fair, Calzada held meetings with several cruise lines, which reaffirmed their commitment to the ports of Las Palmas. “Looking ahead to the 2025-2026 season, we will have more cruise passengers and the market will be more diversified, with an increase in British, Italian, and Spanish tourists,” he noted.
Furthermore, long-established shipping companies in the Port of Las Palmas have reaffirmed their commitment to remain for the upcoming winter season. These include AIDA and Marella, each with two ships, both offering passenger changes in Las Palmas; MSC is maintaining its commitment to the Port of Las Palmas with a larger vessel, also offering passenger changes in Las Palmas; TUI is reinforcing its confidence in the Canary Islands next season with its new ship, the Mein Schiff Relax, operating throughout the winter season, in addition to bringing another ship, both offering passenger changes in Las Palmas; and Costa Cruises will, for the first time, deploy a ship on a regular winter route with passenger changes in Las Palmas.
