29 NOV: Florida’s Port Everglades (Ft Lauderdale) has broken the record for the number of cruise ship passengers handled in one day.
A total 53,500 travellers arrived or departed on eight liners on Saturday.
That beats by just 130 the record number who passed through the port on 20 March last year.
The eight ships arriving from and setting sail for the Caribbean at the weekend were Oasis of the Seas, Liberty of the Seas, Navigator of the Seas, Carnival Miracle, Grand Princess, Crown Princess, Eurodam and MSC Poesia.
