Creating a unique record in the Sri Lankan cruise segment Aitken Spence Travels, brought 4,000 passengers from three vessels on a single day on Sunday.

The simultaneous arrivals of three cruise ships—Vasco Da Gama, Mein Schiff 5, and MS Seven Seas Navigator on December 10, 2023, at the port of Colombo also helped in increasing tourist arrivals and brought on the much needed revenue via a series of excursions.

Minister of Ports and Shipping Nimal Siripala de Silva who welcomed the Cruise ships said that they will add more infrastructure to the Colombo Port.

Operated by TUI, this cruise brought three flights to Colombo for disembarking cruise passengers. Notably, the Vasco Da Gama cruise will be continuing their voyage to the Trincomalee port as well.
