(Barbados Nation) The Celebrity Millennium will be the first ship to arrive in Barbados today, under the new protocols for cruises dedicated to fully vaccinated travellers.
The protocols have been vetted and approved by the Ministry of Health and Wellness, as well as the Social Partnership of Barbados, to ensure the continued safety of all Barbadians and visitors, according to a statement issued by Barbados Tour-ism Marketing Inc. today.
The Celebrity Millennium will be sailing from Philipsburg, St Maarten on a seven-night itinerary, with Barbados as its first port of call.
Its arrival, with over 500 fully-vaccinated travellers, marks the first official cruise passenger ship call to Barbados for the year.
The ship is sailing at less than 50 per cent its usual capacity.
