– attract new passengers,
– promote new destinations
– contribute to the economic recovery of many coastal
regions.
Cruise, Employment & Social inclusion

record;
• sophisticated, state-of-theart ships that are safe and
secure;
• equipped with competent
crews.
Passenger Spending
€3.1 billion in passenger
and crew spending or about
€70* per passenger on
embarkation ports
€ 61 in each transit port.
€ 16 per crew member on

Bringing more ports in the game
• Beyond the world-famous marquee ports
– Absolutely necessary for every itinerary
– attract passengers and sell the cruise itinerary.
• Bring in discovery ports
– The concept: one that is not world-famous, but
provides a different sense to the cruise passenger
V. Take advantage of potential new
Markets
• Drive-to Train-to Homeports

… need to address the impact
• Environmental impact generated by cars and road
transport
• Development planning of tourist destinations
• Preserve natural resources and offer environmental
quality.
• Overall: balance maritime and tourism dimensions
of cruise activities.

Work to sustain the effective and efficient way that have
served the market
•
– Capacity
– Berth allocation –MedCruise guidelines
– Pricing
– Ground transportation and access
– Passenger and luggage (terminal)
• Addressing users requirement and in parallel several considerations

Regulations – ISPS Code
People – background and training

• Euro-Mediterranean network of ports for the
cooperation in the management of waste
– To maximise the opportunity of waste recovery
– To improve energy efficiency
– To quantify the reduction of CO2 emissions deriving from
sustainable management.
– To define a new type of voluntary certification regarding the
treatment of waste

Recycling) and Marpol Annex V.
The issue: Emmissions
• GHG emissions from shipping
– 4% of the EU GHG emissions.
– expected to increase significantly in the future.
– the only transport mode not included in the EU GHG
emissions reduction commitment (yet?)
• CO2 emissions from maritime transport related to intraEU routes
– +48% between 1990 and 2008.
– +51% by 2050 - despite the adoption of minimum ship
efficiency standards for new ships by the International
Maritime Organisation (IMO) in 2012.
The issue: emissions
• Welcome the intention to create a European system of
monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) of carbon
dioxide (CO2) emissions from large ships as from 2018.
– a prerequisite for setting both emission reduction targets and for any
market-based measure or efficiency standard
• But don’t create modal disadvantages
– i.e. like those created due to customs and formalities when use shortsea shipping
– Blue Belt strategy needs to be a reality by 2015 if Europe 2020
strategy is going to succeed.
