The first “blow” is even less tourism to Santorini still suffering seismic activity from cruise.
The first cruise ship, the “Viking Star”, “open” this time in a most famous planet destinations, the route is restored and reached by Chania on February 10.
It was noted for February, according to the Municipal Port Authority, only two trips, from the same ship, on February 10 and 15/02/2025. Next cruises are expected on March 11 again with “Viking Star”) while the total ten cruise ships are expected in March.
The ports
However, as industry agents say, because everyone smoothly improved what to call companies and predict closure of landslide, Armeni, Korfou and Old Ports of Fira. So to restore the cruise, it is necessary to bring the cruise ship management steps to the cruise ship to access visitors to the island. On a scale that this problem can be answered as long as the butthinos port remains open.
Christmas
In any case, what a “bet” is for the tourism industry, because the worst seismic activity is avoided, where the market has high expectations while these Catholics and Orthodox. If seismic vibrates continue for a long time then there is a high risk of losing Easter for the island.
Also, the evolution of seismic sequence will show up any hope in “rescue” in domestic tourism, primarily, at the meal at the carnival and March 25 holiday.
But what comforts tourism involves, knowing that great destinations are quick to recover after normalizing any bad condition. It is shown in the international coronation experience and the Rhodes case after several fires.
Strengthen without decisions made by airlines, cruise companies or other cancellation involved, even if the weather changes.

The gates of escape
Seismic vibrations are taken back to the above and the island’s infrastructure disability, with a priority issue because of the conditions, creation of “escaping gates”. Na, the port issues have been completed for auction issues for the “Sea Gatekeeper Gate Escape to Vlychada Island Fishery Fishery Fishery” Budget 3 million.
Such projects can be sure that if there is a problem with the port of athinios, it is possible to supply the island in emergencies.
