MV Rhapsody of the Seas and Mv Silver Moon to Make Inaugural Calls to Dominica
The MV Rhapsody of the Seas of Royal Caribbean Cruises and the MV Silver Moon of Silver Sea Cruises, will make their inaugural calls to Dominica on December 2nd, 2022. To date, four (4) ships have made their inaugural call to the island. MV Evrima being the first inaugural visit on November 24, 2022. To commemorate the occasion, plaque exchange ceremonies will be held aboard the respective vessels between government officials and the captains.
Rhapsody of the Seas is one of the latest additions to the fleet of luxury liners owned by the Royal Caribbean International Cruise Line. With a passenger capacity of 2000, the ship is scheduled to
make twelve (12) calls to Dominica for the 2022/2023 cruise season.
Building on the Phenomenal success of Silver Muse, Silver Moon mirrors her sister ship and establishes a
new era of Silversea. At 40,700 gross tons and with a capacity to accommodate 596 passengers on
board, Silver Moon maintains the small-ship intimacy and spacious all-suite accommodation which are the hallmarks of the Silversea experience. This is the ship’s only call for the 2022/2023 cruise season.
As of November 25, 2022, Dominica has received a total of thirteen (13) cruise calls. Together, the ships
brought in 18,980 cruise passengers with 73% of passengers disembarking and 54% going out on tour. With the peak of the 2022/2023 cruise season approaching, Dominica is expected to welcome fifty-one (51) cruise calls in the month of December. This signals a productive and profitable season for tourism and hospitality stakeholders who are heavily reliant on cruise sector activity.
The Government of Dominica will continue its effort in the development and promotion of Dominica as a desirable cruise destination.
