The Freeport of Riga Authority has become a member of CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association). Membership in this organisation will enable the Freeport of Riga Authority to cooperate with the world’s largest cruise line operators, facilitating the development of the cruise sector in the Port of Riga.
Until now, the Freeport of Riga has been successful in the cruise sector, the Port said, as the number of new cruise line operators coming to the Port of Riga has been increased.

Namely, on Wdnesady, June 20, the Port of Riga welcomed the cruise ship Queen Elisabeth for the first time. The Queen Elisabeth is one of the largest cruise ships to visit the Port of Riga this year.
Edgars Sūna, Deputy CEO of the Freeport of Riga for development matters, mentioned:
CLIA represents all aspects of the global cruise industry, and membership ensures an opportunity to meet and successfully establish business contacts, which will sooner or later transform into interest showed by cruise line operators in the Port of Riga and the inclusion of Riga in new routes.
Within the framework of CLIA, the Port of Riga will be able to meet and address the decision-makers of cruise line operators, which is particularly important for it.
