It is the first time that Papua New Guinea has hosted the Summit on behalf of the 21 countries that make up the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC).
‘Our support during APEC is much more than a one-off event and highlights the depth of our connections with the people of Papua New Guinea,’ said Carnival Australia chairman Ann Sherry, a Summit delegate.
Three ships berthed in Port Moresby
‘Basing the three ships in Port Moresby is a natural extension of the relationship established through the contribution of cruise tourism,’ Sherry said.
‘Our ships were already top of mind in PNG in planning for APEC and represented a practical solution to the challenge of providing accommodation for thousands of visiting delegates and international media.’
Ships from six Carnival Australia brands — P&O Cruises Australia, Princess Cruises, Holland America Line, Cunard, P&O Cruises World Cruising and Seabourn —call at PNG destinations.
