Caribbean Cruise 365 - Houston Cruise Terminal

Welcome to Caribbean Cruise 365! A recent article in the Houston Chronicle announced that there's a new $80 million dollar Bayport cruise terminal at the Port of Houston that is set to open soon, most likely at the end of the summer.

Though the port will be open soon cruise ships aren't set to begin departing from the terminal quite yet.

Most likely in fall 2009 ships will begin leaving from the terminal, but this is not fore sure. The port hopes to make deals with cruise lines like Princess Cruises, Holland America Line, Mediterranean Shipping Company's MSC Cruises, and Norwegian Cruise Line.

None of these cruise lines have yet to publicly announce plans to travel to the port. Once the Caribbean cruise market improves and begins moving more ships back to North America they figure that the cruise terminal should be totally fine and ready to open.
