Philadelphia's Cruise Revival Starts with Norwegian Jewel Debut at PhilaPort
The Norwegian Jewel marks Philadelphia’s return to regular cruise service after 20 years, docking at PhilaPort to Bermuda with about 2,000 passengers boarding and roughly 2,200 disembarking; the port’s new terminal is still under construction but won’t disrupt this season, and officials project thousands of jobs and up to $295 million in economic impact from the revived cruise activity, with additional itineraries and the Norwegian Pearl joining later this year.
