Regent Seven Seas Cruises to move ships to Miami in 2012 |
||||||||||||||||
|
Regent Seven Seas Cruises announced today that beginning in fall
2012 it will join sister company, Oceania Cruises, at the Port of Miami. The
line's ultra-luxury ships presently sail out of Port Everglades. The combined
brands will account for more than 30 ship calls annually. "We are looking forward to making the Port of Miami headquarters for both our cruise brands," stated Frank Del Rio, chairman and CEO of Prestige Cruise Holdings, the parent company of both Regent Seven Seas Cruises and Oceania Cruises. Regent Seven Seas will operate from Port Everglades for one more year before moving operations to Miami. "We are appreciative to Port Everglades for its many years of excellent service to our valued guests," said Mark Conroy, president of Regent Seven Seas Cruises. "Regent and Oceania will have a dedicated terminal in Miami and the added flexibility of operating itineraries any day of the week." Regent Seven Seas and Oceania Cruises ships will berth at the Port of Miami's newly renovated Cruise Terminal J. The port has invested nearly $3 million on facility renovations and dockside improvements. Additionally, the new tunnel project will greatly improve accessibility to the port. "With the introduction of Regent, we are looking forward to growing the ultra-luxury market at our port," said Bill Johnson, director for the Port of Miami. "We are in the process of upgrading Terminal J into a 'boutique' facility to cater to the mid-size ships that serve the upscale market." |
