Two for Tuesday! Cruise Ship Doubleheader Day for Prince Rupert


Prince Rupert's waterfront awoke this morning to the arrival of two Cruise vessels set for what will be a busy Tuesday port call.

Arriving at the Prince Rupert Cruise Terminal was the Ruby Princess, while off of the Cow Bay Dock, the Seabourn Odyssey was at anchorage, its flotilla of orange transit boats ready to deliver their guests to the Prince Rupert Shore line.

When the two port visits come to a close this afternoon, Prince Rupert will have only 16 more port visits left on the 2023 cruise season schedule, barring any last minute additions.

There are two more visits set for August and Thirteen for September.

The final visit for 2023 will see the Seabourn Odyssey back for one last look around on October 10th.

The most recent statistics from the Prince Rupert Port Authority show a significant jump in the volume of visitors that have arrive din 2023, compared to last year.

As of the end of July the Prince Rupert Cruise Terminal had seen 50,823 visitors, far more than double the 21,166 of one year ago.
