CLIA cruise vision for the Baltic

The Baltic Sea is the third largest cruise destination in the world generating spending in 2015 of an estimated €708.6 million throughout the region as a result of cruise ships visiting the Baltic ports.

“CLIA member cruise lines see environmental sustainability and the preservation of the marine environment as not only the right thing to do, but also an integral part of their activities,” said Marco Digioia, Director of Government Affairs at CLIA Europe.

“The cruise industry looks forward to working with the stakeholders’ present today to find solutions to common challenges, in order to ensure a prosperous future of cruising and a sustainable maritime economy in the Baltic Region.”

At a recent event held in Copenhagen, the organisation addressed topics like the promotion of the Baltic destinations, the destination management, port/city relation, the provision of adequate port reception facilities for sewage and more generally the continued development of port infrastructure.
