Increase in Dubai Cruises

Dubai has recently announced that it has seen an increase in cruise passengers of 25% on last year with 260,817 cruise passengers visiting the Emirate.

Next year Dubai expects to play host to 99 ship visits as a result of the of the new Dubai Cruise Terminal becoming fully operational by the end of 2009. A number of cruise lines have chosen Dubai as their regional hub including Costa Cruises and Royal Caribbean International who offer cruises on Costa Luminosa and Brilliance of the Seas respectively. The latter will be operating UAE and Bahrain cruises from January until April in 2010.

Viking River Cruises Offers Luggage Transfer Service

This year’s phenomenal success of rail-cruise holidays from Viking River Cruises has prompted the cruise line to offer a baggage transfer service that will deliver UK clients’ baggage direct to the ship.

After introducing rail travel on their Rhine and Seine cruises in 2008 the company is going to trial a rail-cruise on the Danube with an overnight stay in Cologne at either end of the cruise to break-up the journey. This will include transfers to and from the Cologne hotel but will involve a change of trains.

Viking River Cruises have really embraced the concept of rail-cruises and introduced a representative at Paris Gare du Nord to meet and escort passengers arriving by Eurostar to their onward travel arrangements; a similar service is planned for Brussels for next year.

The Danube Rhapsody rail-cruise is now available to book with Conexo Travel for 2010 and there are some excellent early booking discounts available until 30 August 2009.
