Le Havre, a French cruise port on the European west coast, has the capacity to host the biggest cruise ships in service in the world. This spring, Le Havre will see the completion of a $1.36m project that added facilities to accommodate up to 500 passengers.
The new accommodations, to be completed by March of this year, will help Le Havre meet cruise lines’ expectations. In terms of traffic Le Havre expects another great year for 2010: 67 calls totaling 115,000 passengers are scheduled — up 25 percent from last year.
