Cruise Industry: Royal Caribbean plans third ship for Port Canaveral, Florida

Port Canaveral expects Royal Caribbean International to announce that it is basing a third ship at the port in the winter of 2014-15, as the cruise line tests the waters for expanded service from Brevard County's seaport.

Port interim Chief Executive Officer John Walsh said an official announcement from Royal Caribbean is expected in about two weeks that the cruise line will have another ship at Port Canaveral, joining the Enchantment of the Seas and Freedom of the Seas for part of the year.

In addition, Walsh said during an interview with FLORIDA TODAY that he is in "accelerated" discussions with Royal Caribbean about the potential for bringing one of the cruise line's new megaships to Port Canaveral.
