Puerto Rico is on its way to breaking cruise passenger records for the second time in three years.

This week the Carnival Corporation’s Fathom cruise line announced the addition of three new shore excursions for its weeklong cruise vacations in Cuba.

The annual ‘Plan a Cruise Month’ campaign, taking place during the month of October, is designed to generate widespread awareness of cruise travel.

The company’s Odyssey ship will begin its fall 2017 season on Oct. 30 with the first of four 12-day Caribbean cruises heading round trip from Miami.

Fathom, Carnival Corporation's 10th and newest cruise brand, has added two Cuba sailing dates for fall 2016 as a result of strong pent-up demand by travelers choosing to take a cruise vacation to explore Cuba with Fathom, the only U.S. cruise line sailing from the U.S. to one of the most desired destinations in the Caribbean.

MSC Cruises has announced the name for its second upcoming Meraviglia generation cruise ship: the MSC Bellissima, which will enter service in spring 2019.
