Several measures have been implemented to improve cruise passenger service at the Bridgetown Port, following recent complaints from cruise ship visitors about transit delays.Chief Executive Officer of Barbados Port Inc. (BPI) David Jean-Marie said in a statement on Friday that an improved operational plan has been implemented to assist homeport cruise passengers disembarking at the port.“BPI recognises that some guests who had taken the Rhapsody of Seas cruise were in recent times understandably unhappy with traffic movements within the Port of Bridgetown which may have caused a disappointing end to their vacation. The main challenge related to the transit of disembarking guests and luggage between the homeport terminal (Shed 3) and the exit gate,” he explained.As a result, the CEO revealed that BPI, in collaboration with the Customs and Excise Department, has sought to give passengers several options once they complete baggage clearance.
