Port Canaveral welcomes return of Enchantment of the Seas

Royal Caribbean International’s (RCI) Enchantment of the Seas was welcomed back to Port Canaveral today launching a new season of three and four-night cruises to the Bahamas from the Port. Port Canaveral was the homeport for the 2,950 passenger Enchantment until 2016. All Enchantment sailings from Port Canaveral feature a port-of-call at CocoCay, Royal Caribbean’s private island.

Building on its position as the second busiest cruise Port in the world, Port Canaveral is the homeport for the Enchantment of the Seas, which will offer a three-night cruise itinerary departing Port Canaveral on Fridays and arriving at Nassau, Bahamas the next day. The third day, the ship will call at its private island in CocoCay, Bahamas followed by an overnight sailing back to Port Canaveral. The four-night cruise will depart on Mondays and include an overnight at sea before calling on Nassau and CocoCay.

“Port Canaveral is proud of its partnership with Royal Caribbean and we are excited that the Enchantment has returned to our Port with a lineup of exceptional sailings,” stated Port CEO Captain John Murray. “We value our long-time relationship with Royal Caribbean and gratified for their confidence in our delivery of a top-notch experience for cruise guests.”

“We are excited to bring Enchantment of the Seas back to Port Canaveral,” said Michael Bayley, President and CEO, Royal Caribbean International. “With three- and four-night itineraries to the Bahamas, Enchantment is the perfect short getaway from Port Canaveral.”

Chairman of the Canaveral Port Authority Commission Admiral Wayne Justice (USCG-Ret.) joined with Port staff in welcoming the Enchantment back to Port Canaveral. The Enchantment of the Seas Captain Toni Tomljanovic was presented with a traditional plaque to commemorate the vessel’s return to the Port. “Port Canaveral continues to demonstrate its role as a premier Port for the world’s cruise market and we thank Royal Caribbean for bringing Enchantment back home,” stated Chairman Justice.
