BASSETERRE (31st October, 2017): The first three-cruise-ship day of the season took place on Monday, which also included the inaugural arrival of the Zenith.
The Viking Sea arrived in St. Kitts with a maximum capacity of 930 passengers, and the Crystal Serenity with a maximum capacity of 1,140 passengers. The Zenith arrived for the first time to St. Kitts with a maximum capacity of 1,750 passengers.
