As part of a strategic partnership agreement signed in مارچ 2018 with the city of Sasebo and MLIT Japan, Carnival Corporation will construct and operate the new terminal, expected to open in summer 2020. The partners in the Sasebo development project are working together on an efficient, contemporary design for the terminal to accommodate the corporation’s existing and newest ships. Under the 20-year agreement, Carnival Corporation and its cruise line brands will be granted berthing preference, enabling them to provide guests with optimized cruise itineraries when visiting the port.
“As the cruise industry’s first terminal in جاپان, this groundbreaking is a historic day for all of us at Carnival Corporation and for our partners in this exciting project,” said مائيڪل ٿام, group CEO, Costa Group and Carnival Asia. “This new terminal will complement our strong presence in the ايشيا-پئسفڪ region and furthers our commitment to help facilitate the rising demand for cruise vacations in the region, enabling even more people from around the world to discover why جاپان is such an extraordinary destination, one that many of our guests have long enjoyed. And as our company’s first cruise terminal investment in جاپان, we are excited to mark the start of our long-term relationship. We are actively working on future investment opportunities to help further support growth and expand the Japanese cruise industry for years to come.”
جاپان جو ports have witnessed exceptional growth over the past few years, and cruising continues to increase in popularity in ايشيا.
