caprcorn28 Posted May 2, 2013 #1 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I have recently heard some Floridians talking about getting a new cruiseline out of Florida (they live in the Tampa area). Does anyone know anything about that? Of course I have no detail...no name or any knowledge of it.... I appreciate any help you could offer!

Rare Keith1010 Posted May 2, 2013 #2 Share Posted May 2, 2013 You may want to also ask about this on the Florida Departures Board. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted May 2, 2013 #3 Share Posted May 2, 2013 You got my attention. Hope we find out if this is true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirkNC Posted May 2, 2013 #4 Share Posted May 2, 2013 You got my attention. Hope we find out if this is true. I don't, there are plenty of lines and plenty of ships already in my book. I can't imagine it is true given the significant $$$ needed to start one and the fact that the industry already has too much capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momofmeg Posted May 2, 2013 #5 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I am guessing it will be something like the old Seaescape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted May 2, 2013 #7 Share Posted May 2, 2013 If you find out, please let us know. We like sailing out of Tampa. It's a good embark/debark port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted May 2, 2013 #8 Share Posted May 2, 2013 The only new cruise line I have heard of is Pearl Seas coming out in 2014 but do not think they sail out of Tampa Curious minds want to know :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momofmeg Posted May 2, 2013 #9 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I have recently heard some Floridians talking about getting a new cruiseline out of Florida (they live in the Tampa area). Does anyone know anything about that?Of course I have no detail...no name or any knowledge of it.... I appreciate any help you could offer! I wonder if they meant NCL started cruising out of Tampa thispast winter? I know for Tampa because of the bridge, the ship has to be small by today's standards. I wish Celebrity still cruised out of Tampa but I think even the Connie and Millie are too large. I do think though a ship that did dinner crusies and perhaps could also be chartered for weddings would be nice, something along the lines of the old Seaescape but done better, as in have better quality not just a "bargain price." I would think there are plenty of older ships that could be refurbished for that. I read the original Pacifc Princess is just lying in a dock in Italy. That ship, spruced up with a "Love Boat" TV show theme would be neat. If it was done right people would spend a couple of hundred a person for a nice dinner cruise. People spend that much money all the time at the FL theme parks. I would anyway. Others would love it for a casino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_BJ Posted May 2, 2013 #10 Share Posted May 2, 2013 OR hearing only part of the story they actually heard that RCL MIGHT bring another ship to Port Canaveral IN ADDITION TO announcements of additional ships making PORT CALLS in PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseScrooge Posted May 2, 2013 #11 Share Posted May 2, 2013 long shot but maybe the time share and vacation club salesmen and city street hawkers were talking up the celebration or a overnight ship and being fast and loose on the details and facts.
