PT Pelabuhan Indonesia (Persero) Regional 3 targets 107 cruise ships or cruises to dock at its regional ports during 2024 and 172,750 passengers.

Senior Manager of Law and Public Relations of Pelindo Regional 3 Karlinda Sari in her statement in Surabaya, Thursday, March 7, said that her party was optimistic that the target would be met because of the improvement in port services and facilities that had been carried out during 2023. During 2023, he said, Pelindo Regional 3 succeeded in serving 146 cruise ship visits from target 33, with a tourist passenger flow of 191,438 people. "The target has increased three times compared to the 2023 target," he said, quoted from Antara.

Karlinda explained that a number of factors were considered to be able to boost the visits of cruise ships significantly in 2024, including improvements in port facilities such as the provision of mobile and telescopic gangways, to handling luggage services and turn around passangers at the main terminal of Pelindo Regional 3. "This target is not without reason. Improvement of facilities and services at terminals that implementation from other international terminals is one of the bargaining values we are trying to provide to cruise ships that will dock, it is proven with many cruise calls entering earlier this year," said Karlinda. Karlinda added that the construction of the Bali Maritime Tourism Hub, which has entered the final stage, has also become an additional crude attraction for sandars, especially early last year Pelindo successfully served a turn around 4,000 passangers and handles at Benoa Bali Port.

Selain itu, selama 2023 pihaknya juga sukses melayani beragam cruise lines dengan rute Asia Pasific-Australia.“Tahun 2023 menjadi salah satu momen terbaik kami ketika berhasil menyadarkan salah satu cruise ukuran jumbo Celebrity Solstice di Pelabuhan Benoa. Selain itu juga kami telah melakukan layanan turn around 4.000 passanger awal tahun ini," ucapnya.
