to Florida in 2014 hit a record of
320,000, with arrival anticipated
to have grown substantially in
2015, according to Shari Bailey,

confirming the state is benefiting

With five ports in Florida all

port upgrades are continuously

Fort Lauderdale is currently
undertaking an expansion, with a
hotel set to open in 2017.
