Work to start on dedicated cruise terminal in Miami for Norwegian Cruise Line

Work is to start on a dedicated Norwegian Cruise Line terminal at the port of Miami on May 1.

The building is due for completion by autumn 2019 as newest Breakaway Plus class ship Norwegian Encore is deployed from the Florida port on seasonal cruises to the Caribbean.

The 166,500 sq ft terminal will handle ships carrying up to 5,000 passengers with technology designed to support faster and more efficient embarkation and disembarkation, as well as expedited security screening and luggage check-in.

A dedicated lounge and service area is planned together with a new car park and valet parking area with direct access to the terminal to streamline the arrival and departure process.

Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings president and CEO Frank Del Rio said: “As a global cruise company we’re transforming and elevating guest experiences through design and innovation on our ships, and this new terminal at PortMiami is the next step in that journey.”
