Cruise Ship Season Kicks-Off Tomorrow

The Port Authority praying for good weather as the first cruise ship of the season, the Carnival Glory, docks in Saint John tomorrow. 

Betty MacMillan with the Port Authority tells CHSJ News cruise lines keep hearing what a great destination Saint John is and so the industry keeps growing. 

Two new cruise lines will be calling on Saint John this season, bringing an additional 10 thousand passengers.

The Port is presenting an antique telescope to the captain of the Carnival Glory to commemorate the first ship of the year.  MacMillan says it's a tradition they hope will continue.
