Regarding Port Fee Increases, Royal Caribbean Group CEO Wants 'Reasonableness'

Royal Caribbean Group CEO Jason Liberty emphasizes negotiating port fee increases with "reasonableness" amid a surge in demand for cruising post-pandemic, reports Travel Weekly.

Liberty stresses the ecosystem's mutual benefit by acknowledging port challenges with inflation and labour, urging collaboration between cruise lines, ports, and travel partners.

Port fee hikes, exemplified by Ports Victoria and the Bahamas, pose challenges, prompting cruise lines to adapt. In the face of potential taxes in Quintana Roo and Scotland, Liberty addresses anti-cruise sentiments. Advocating education to dispel misconceptions and highlighting Royal Caribbean's strategy of diversified deployments, Liberty addressed concerns in cities opposing heavy cruise traffic.
