| A busy week in Doha

MS Island Sky, part of
the fleet operated by Noble
Caledonia, which is part-owned
by APT, was one of three ships to
call at Doha, Qatar this week as
they explored the Arabian Gulf.
Qatar is ramping up efforts to
expand its cruise tourism, with
Island Sky the first ship to dock
there as part of the Cruise Arabia
Alliance, while other arrivals
included Seabourn Sojourn and
Hapag-Lloyd’s MS Europa 2.
Passengers received a warm
welcome complete with Arabic
coffee, a traditional performance
and a falcon photo opportunity
before undertaking tours of
Qatar’s key landmarks.
