More and more ports are limiting visitors and at the other end cruise lines are introducing bigger and bigger ships. Soon we will cruise to nowhere.

[@sccarguy8242]

I have to imagine the Dry dock wants them out ASAP… it’s kinda amazing them have not been kicked out yet. Those docks are usually booked back to back, months out.

Hi Doug, Great update. Greece possibly limiting cruise ship passengers and Royal Caribbean dumping another mega ship . Good luck with that.

[@tsykes92]

It's crazy how 2 years is considered a long time to essentially build a fully independent city block that moves

[@laurenschenck5355]

Congratulations Royal Caribbean happy to hear Greece fantastic report! ❤😊❤

[@markt.3454]

Mornin' Doug! I still think the mega ship trend is exacerbating the port crowding issue. I'm guessing, as large port communities limit guests, other communities are going to be slow to sign up for port expansions the will allow multiple mega-ships to flood their areas. It will be interesting to see how - or if - the industry will respond.

We went on the Mardi Gras this year, and... that's just too many people. (Personal opinion) 5,000+ is too much, I think I'll stick to 3½k and under ships from now on.

[@ljacobs357]

Just what the world needs. Another big ship. Hope more ports restrict big ships. And I’m an avid cruiser.

[@marilynnkadan7948]

Congrats Royal Caribbean. Good hear your Greece report. I sail Oceania nautica 2026 italy+ greece 20dys

[@jeremyforino2933]

I've been to Santorini twice in the same cruise. The first time, there were 3 other ships with ours (225 passengers). A Virgin ship and 2 other small ones. It was a little crowded. The 2nd time, there were three big ships and us. It was a nightmare. Pile onto that the usual "tourist attitude". I was so glad we got to experience it with not so much crowding. I understand why they're doing it.

Happy Monday Doug. I plan to go to Utopia Of The Seas soon. I would love to go to Greece one day.

[@CruiseRadio]

Hopefully you can !

[@TheRiverPirate13]

Good morning, Doug! We have Utopia of the Seas booked for a 4-night cruise September 2025 using "Next Cruise" when we sailed on Allure of the Seas this past May. No doubt we will probably book a second sailing on Utopia of the Seas in order to get to enjoy more of the ship that size!

[@CruiseRadio]

GoodMorning !

[@gregmctevia5087]

Well, at least nobody went overboard. On that basis, very enjoyable update.

[@laurenschenck5355]

So excited for utopia of the seas!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@BeefromSC]

Happy Monday!!!!

[@CruiseRadio]

Happy Monday to you too .

[@kathyjeffrey1786]

Afternoon Doug Wow where did the Day go.Holy smokes that's another for Greece receiving cruise ships .ty for your updates.Hope you have had a nice Monday

[@laurenschenck5355]

Happy Monday Doug! ❤😊❤

[@sylviemarsolais7148]

With mega ships entering the market one after the next, there is bound to be more and more problems as to the number of passengers arriving in different ports. The number of ports in Europe or else to visit is bound to get smaller. What wîll be the long term solution? Have a great Monday😊

[@Tatyana_2373]

Good afternoon thank you Doug

[@CruiseRadio]

Good afternoon Tatyana.

[@nordisk1874]

The ship won’t ever sail. It’s amazing to think Greece only had small ships calling just 20 years ago. Yea Costa would cruise there but MSC had ex ocean liners and the MV Melody. NCL maybe a handful and the local cruise lines which Louis/Celestial is the last company standing. Celebrity never really cruised there till recently even though they were the first Greek company to built a new ship since the 1950s. Most people don’t know the history of Celebrity, just what Royal Caribbean did to destroy them!

[@Frankie-Floyd]

Hey Doug you always open with Jacksonville's Dame Point Bridge in the back ground. I was always curious do you know the clearance between the Elation's funnel?

[@arleneaninion6252]

Thanks so much 🌹🙏

[@CruiseRadio]

You're welcome 😊

[@paulntpa1122]

Hey Doug, Tampa here. I probably would NOT get my butt on a World cruise with a ship that old with that many issues. NOPE ! Save my money and look for another ship. Sail safe.

[@SeaTravelr123]

The smaller islands and countries MUST limit numbers it really ruins the reason we all want to visit those intimate ports.

[@tillyortiz346]

Wow what happened in the Stock market big hits for all cruise lines.. I would love to go to Greece but I'm sure no cruise line leaving US to Greece LOL

[@laurenschenck5355]

Happy belated Monday Doug! ❤😊❤😊

[@CruiseRadio]

Same to you!

[@marilynnkadan7948]

[@CruiseRadio]

Happy Monday Marilynn .

[@Grammy5AL2006]

So many the places the cruises can’t go they are forced into a smaller port availability.

[@andrewsabol5045]

Good morning Doug Thanks for the updates 👍

[@CruiseRadio]

No problem 👍 GoodMorning Andrew

[@davidhayn6513]

[@MrAlexrowlands]

By the time that World cruise departs the dry docks will be the only ports left for cruise ships to visit 😂

[@user-up9iq7ic8z]
