Baie-Comeau Cruises, which promotes the destination in the Province of Quebec in Canada, says its 10th season is looking quite promising. At least 8,866 cruise guests and crew members are expected to stop over at the port—13% more than in 2015. Eleven ship visits are scheduled, including an inaugural visit by Phoenix Reisen’s Amadea.

“In total, Baie-Comeau and its Manicouagan partners should welcome at least 52,757 cruise guests and crew members from around the world at the end of 2016. That’s sure to benefit the region’s economy,” said Reina Savoie Jourdain, President of Baie-Comeau Cruises.

“We are also delighted to have the opportunity to welcome a German Cruise Line again—that’s a new market for Baie-Comeau. We will be welcoming this cruise line for a second consecutive year. They had a great experience last year.”

Moreover, on 15 September, for the first time in Baie-Comeau Cruises’ history, two ships - Seabourn Quest and Pearl Mist - will be coming into port at the same time.
