Cruise Ship Departs Baltimore For Bermuda
The Royal Caribbean Vision of the Seas departed Baltimore on May 25 – the first cruise ship to sail from the city since the collapse of its Francis Scott Key Bridge on March 26 – embarking on a voyage to Bermuda.
A CNN story said, “Two cruise ships set sail for the sea from Baltimore this weekend for the first time since the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsed.
“Royal Caribbean’s Vision of the Sea left Baltimore on Saturday for a five-night voyage to Bermuda, according to Port of Baltimore Director Jonathan Daniels.
“The Port of Baltimore was temporarily blocked following the March 26 collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge. The 1.6-mile structure fell after the 213-million-pound cargo ship Dali collided with the bridge and struck one of its crucial support columns.
“In 2023, 444,000 passengers departed on cruises from the Port of Baltimore. The Port supports 15,330 direct jobs and 139,180 jobs in Maryland, according to the state’s website. The cruise industry adds $63 million to Maryland’s economy, the website notes.”
