Team Prays as Arvia Docks, Marking Antigua’s Push into Homeporting
The team at Antigua Cruise Port gathered in prayer on Saturday morning as they prepared to welcome P&O Cruises’ Arvia back to St. John’s Harbour.
Her arrival marked more than a routine docking, it signaled the continuation of Antigua and Barbuda’s growing homeporting relationship with P&O Cruises at the new cruise terminal.
The turnaround operations by Arvia highlight Antigua’s increasing role as a homeporting destination, offering expanded economic opportunities for local businesses, service providers, and tourism stakeholders.
Officials say the partnership with P&O Cruises continues to strengthen as homeporting becomes a more significant part of the island’s cruise tourism development.
