At least 14 luxury cruise lines and 20 vessels are expected at SA’s ports during the busy cruise season, which started this morning, 1 November with the arrival of the MSC Sinfonia.
N-Shed will play host to many of the visiting vessels, following its upgrade earlier this year. According to the TNPA, N-Shed now features many new developments including new signage, immigration and check-in desks, a fast track lounge, baggage scanners and conveyor belt, an air-conditioning system, extra seating, balustrades, turnstiles and sail shades, new ramps and a back-up generator and UPS in the event of load shedding.
With plans for further upgrades in place, the passenger terminal will feature state-of-the art equipment in line with improved passenger care.
