WCT (Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Cruise Terminal) Proudly Welcomes 800th Passenger Ship Call
Worldwide Cruise Terminals (WCT), manager and operator of Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, on November 12th proudly welcomed its 800th passenger ship call since the commencement of operations in June 2013.
The vessel calling on this momentous occasion was the Genting Dream,
which was also the first vessel to recommence passenger operations in Hong Kong
on July 30th, following an extended suspension of cruising.
Managing Director of WCT, Jeff Bent said, “We are delighted to celebrate this
milestone with the Genting Dream, one of the most frequently visiting cruise ships at
the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal. Today’s arrival of our 800th passenger ship call marks an
incredible chapter in our books. Per general estimates of the economic benefits, this
ship call marks the point at which the terminal achieves ‘payback’ on its initial
investment. We look forward to generating further economic benefits for the people
of Hong Kong in the many years to come at this magnificent facility.”
Kent Zhu, president of Genting Cruise Lines added, “Genting Cruise Lines would like
to congratulate Kai Tak Cruise Terminal on reaching its 800th passenger ship call with
Genting Dream and we are proud to be able to play a part in achieving this
milestone. Hong Kong is a premier destination for the cruise industry because of
state-of-the-facilities such as the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal and continues to play an
important role for Genting Cruise Lines as both our home and headquarters.”
