Danat Dubai Cruises report increase in passengers

Up 45% in January and February 2004 compared to last year, Danat Dubai Cruises have catered for an impressive over 20,000 passengers from March 2003 to date.

Mr Salah El Khayat, Executive Director of Danat Dubai Cruises said, "Danat Dubai Cruises has seen demand grow over the last year and is gearing up for a continuous rise in passengers. With the political situation in the Middle East now stabilising, figures are showing that tourism is up and Dubai is experiencing an influx of executive travellers as well as package and independent tourists. Danat Dubai Cruises is continuing with the expansion of its fleet in order to cater for the demand it is seeing and is focusing this year on corporate hospitality within the local market".

Danat Dubai Cruises have been providing cruises in the Dubai Creek and along the UAE coastlines since 1999 and strictly adhere to International Safety Standards. Due to its fleet expansion Danat Dubai Cruises offer scheduled cruises every day of the year and additional vessels for private charter 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Recently catering for honourable guests, the Prince and Princes of Belgium, and being used for special promotions by the "Nation's Stations" Radio 1 and Radio 2, Danat Dubai Cruises is proving to be a venue for exclusive events as well Dubai's number one cruise operator.

Mr Salah summed it up by saying, "With construction happening all over Dubai it can be difficult for corporate clients to find appropriate venues which still offer first class service with an excellent view. Danat Dubai Cruises can always guarantee both of these things, as well as the added bonus of offering our clients true traditional hospitality".
