Three cruise ships

The Kai Tak Cruise Terminal in Hong Kong, operated by Worldwide Cruise Terminals (WCT), a consortium led by WFS, welcomed three world-class ships from two cruise lines at its two berths on the 19th of 19 March 2025. This visit brought over 10,000 passengers and crew to the city of Hong Kong.

The three ships, with a collective gross tonnage of over 280,000, included the Queen Anne, Queen Elizabeth and Norwegian Sky. The Queen Anne arrived the day prior and stayed overnight, while the Queen Elizabeth and Norwegian Sky made their arrivals on the 19th of March. Notably, the calls by Queen Anne and Norwegian Sky marked their inaugural visits to Hong Kong.

Jeff Bent, managing director of WCT, said "We are delighted to welcome in a single day three majestic ships from two lines, for homeport and transit calls, catering to different markets. It demonstrates the broad appeal of our city, as well as the efficiency and flexibility of the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal to handle multiple varied operations."

Looking ahead, Bent added: "We look forward to an increased number of ship calls, passengers, and visiting cruise lines in 2025, including seven inaugural calls, three of which arrived in just the first three months of the year. Astro Ocean's Piano Land arrived on the 6th of January, Cunard's Queen Anne on the 18th of March and NCL's Norwegian Sky on the 19th of March."

This milestone underscores the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal's commitment to providing world-class facilities and services to the cruise industry, enhancing Hong Kong's reputation as a premier cruise destination
