Carnival Corporation to Add Pier at Half Moon Cay Cruise Port
Carnival Corporation has big changes coming for private island Half Moon Cay, which hosts calls from Carnival Cruise Line and Holland America Line — two of Carnival Corp.’s brands. Plans are in the works for a pier, which will eliminate the need for passengers to tender ashore — a process that can be time-consuming and tedious, particuarly in rough weather or for cruisers with mobility issues.
