Overview
- Vigo handled two large ships, MSC Preziosa and Norwegian Sky, bringing about 5,300 passengers in a single day and putting its turnaround logistics to the test.
- MSC Preziosa ran a partial turnaround that disembarked 208 travelers and boarded 231 to 233, marking the season’s first embarkation through the maritime station.
- Norwegian Sky made its inaugural call with 1,892 passengers during a repositioning cruise bound for Northern Europe routes.
- At Seatrade Cruise Global in Miami, Vigo set a 2027 aim of about 130 cruise calls and 310,000 visitors and promoted a new ‘Sendero Azul’ boat route linking marine and museum sites to cut bus use and deepen the visit.
- The April calendar lists 17 calls in Vigo, while nearby A Coruña drew more than 8,000 visitors in a triple call, showing a region-wide surge that brings both spending and crowded city centers.
