Carnival inclined to invest in new Mexico cruise ports
By Donna Tunney
Carnival Corp. might be open to investing in port initiatives in Mexico, said Carnival Cruise Lines CEO Gerry Cahill.
According to a statement from Carnival, Cahill gave Mexico President Felipe Calderon a letter on behalf of parent company Carnival Corp. expressing "interest in possible investments of $150 million in port projects in Calica and Puerto Cortes, located within Mexico’s Caribbean and Pacific coasts, respectively.”
No details about the projects have been released. Carnival already has invested an estimated $100 million in Mexico ports, including Cozumel.
Cahill was in Cozumel earlier this week to meet with Calderon, Quintana Roo Gov. Roberto Borge Angulo and Mexico Minister of Tourism Gloria Guevara.
