SUMMARY:Scotland’s Cruise Conference 2022 – What Works for Tourism
DESCRIPTION:In 2022 the return of cruise ship calls around Scotland has been stronger than expected. Throughout the summer\, confidence in cruising by UK and international travellers has increased\, and as Covid regulatory restrictions have eased\, the percentage occupancy on each itinerary has grown month by month. In addition\, new ships ordered pre-pandemic\, have been delivered\, and new cruise lines have emerged onto the market. The 2023 season now promises to be busier for ports and attractions than 2019. \nBut what does this mean for Scottish cruise ports and coastline\, and the visitor attractions and hospitality businesses accessed by cruise guests on our islands and across mainland Scotland? \nScotland’s Cruise Conference – What Works for Tourism 2023 will explore the issues which arise from the re-establishment of cruise tourism for Scotland and its communities. Speakers and attendees will consider the opportunities as well as the concerns arising from the growth in this market – providing information to allow forward planning for different sectors of this market\, as well as considering pressures on services and resources and the work being done by the industry to ensure sustainability.
