- We had hoped for five cruise calls that were booked this summer.

That they would be canceled was unfortunately no surprise, says Jenny Carreberg at Destination Kalmar. 

She hopes that instead - like last year - bookings will arrive at short notice in the autumn. 

- In September, we have booked a call so far.

We do not see it as an impossibility that more calls will be made after the summer at short notice, says Jenny Carreberg.

A booking in Västervik in October

In Borgholm, you are usually visited by 2-3 cruise ships every year.

Last year they were canceled, and this year there is still a booking - this autumn. 

Oskarshamn has never had a visit from a cruise ship, and Västervik had its last visit in 2018. But this year, a day stop of a ship is booked in October. 

- Västervik is not a large cruise destination, says Thomas Eriksson, CEO of Västervik Framåt.
