Scarlet Lady’s Maiden Call: A Historic Moment at Catania Cruise Port

We had the honor of welcoming the Scarlet Lady, the flagship vessel from the prestigious Virgin Voyages, for its very first Maiden Call at our port. 🛳️🎉 This remarkable occasion marked not just a milestone in our port’s history, but also a symbol of an exciting new chapter of collaboration between Virgin Voyages and Catania Cruise Port.

The arrival of the Scarlet Lady was celebrated with the traditional exchange of the Crest, a maritime custom that embodies the strengthening of bonds and mutual respect between the ship and the destination. This exchange represents the beginning of what we hope will be a long-lasting and fruitful partnership with Virgin Voyages, further solidifying Catania’s position as a key Mediterranean destination for luxury and innovative cruising.

Virgin Voyages, known for its forward-thinking approach to cruising, brings a unique and vibrant spirit to every port it visits. The presence of the Scarlet Lady in Catania is not only a testament to the growing appeal of our city but also a valuable opportunity for collaboration, growth, and the continued development of the cruise tourism sector.

We are immensely grateful to @virginvoyages for trusting us with their presence and for choosing Catania as one of their premier destinations. This partnership is a promising sign of many exciting things to come. We are ready to welcome the Scarlet Lady and all her future visits with open arms and a commitment to delivering unforgettable experiences to their guests.

Thank you, Virgin Voyages, for making this special moment possible. We look forward to welcoming you many more times in the future!
