CGBCruiser Posted July 26, 2012 #2 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Interesting...will have to ask my friend about that! I'm sure they would love to have a ship in port there again. Driving through Mobile a couple of weeks ago was the worst! Sat in traffic on the West side of the tunnel for over an hour. We've driven through there several times but this was awful.

wdowns9 Posted November 16, 2012 #5 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Pipe dream for Mobile..According to the news this week - they are trying to get anything as the cruise terminal is costing around $5k a day and they can only manage to book proms and mardi gras events. The tax payers are taking a bath on a bad investment. As a result of the lost of Mobile we have to go out of NOLA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvsullivan Posted November 16, 2012 #6 Share Posted November 16, 2012 With Houston back on the cruisers list, this can't be good for Mobile either? Now we will have, Tampa, New Orleans, Galveston and Houston as choices for Gulf cruising! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas Tillie Posted November 16, 2012 #9 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Which line sails out of Houston? Thanks Currently Carnival has 2 ships year round and Royal Caribbean, Princess and Disney are sailing winters from Galveston. Princess will be moving to the Houston (Bayport) terminal in 2013 ans NCL will be there in 2014 - both just seasonal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waveblaster Posted November 20, 2012 #10 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Pipe dream for Mobile..According to the news this week - they are trying to get anything as the cruise terminal is costing around $5k a day and they can only manage to book proms and mardi gras events. The tax payers are taking a bath on a bad investment. As a result of the lost of Mobile we have to go out of NOLA. I think Airbus building their final assembly plant in Mobile takes a bit of the sting away. They had a good 7 year run, though. In the beginning, it's kind of hard to see that it might be a bad investment when you don't know that it will unravel 7 years down the road.
