Florida, the world's largest cruise tourism hub, has announced the start of the 2025/26 winter season. The ports of Miami and Port Canaveral are expecting over 7 million passengers this season—a new record.
Major operators Royal Caribbean, Carnival, and Norwegian Cruise Line are launching new itineraries to the Caribbean, including rare destinations like Grenada, Dominica, and Curaçao.
Particular attention is paid to environmental friendliness: new liners run on liquefied natural gas (LNG), and “shore power” systems are being introduced in ports, allowing ships to connect to the power grid and reduce emissions.
Experts note that cruise tourism in the US has fully recovered from the pandemic and is now showing steady growth. For tourists, this means more itineraries, new onboard entertainment, and expanded "fly & cruise" programs.
