Aviator of the Seas Posted August 16, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 16, 2022 (edited) The same operator as Barcelona, Valetta, Malaga and others, has been selected by the Government of Puerto Rico to run the cruise piers in San Juan Harbor. Just announced in a presser by the Governor of Puerto Rico, the Puerto Rico Ports Authority and Global Ports Holding. Good or bad? Have you had any experience at the other ports managed by this company? The chief local complaint is that they will take over ALL services, to include port agency, passenger transportation, sightseeing tours, shops, restaurants, etc. Now, everyone agrees that the cruise ship piers in San Juan need investment, and the Government of Puerto Rico is broke and can't afford that, but to establish a monopoly which the major cruise lines have objected to (see earlier post that includes the letter from the cruise lines)...
