CHARLESTOWN NEVIS (November 22, 2006)
Tourism officials on Nevis are looking forward to a busy 2006-2007 Cruise season. According to the Nevis Tourism Authority’s (NTA) 2006-2007 Cruise Schedule, the island is expected to receive 57 cruise ship visits, four of which will make their inaugural call.
Ms. Helen Kidd Chief Executive Officer of the Nevis Tourism Authority told the Government Information Service in a recent interview that Easy Cruise.Com from England with a capacity of 170 passengers is expected to call on Nevis from December 14th; the Lili Marleen with a capacity of 50 will visit on January 12, 2007; the Silver Wind on February 18th, 2007 with a capacity of 296 and the MV Coral, which is expected for the World Cup Cricket tournament, with a capacity of 676 will visit from April 03, 2007.
She said the NTA had also enjoyed success in attracting the lucrative private yachting market to Nevis since mid 2006. However, work was ongoing in conjunction with other Nevis Island Administration departments in an effort to market Nevis as a yacht friendly destination.

CHARLESTOWN NEVIS (November 21, 2006)
A group of top travel agents from the United Kingdom will leave Nevis on Tuesday November 21, 2006, following a four day visit to Nevis with the compliments of British Airways. While on the island, the group was hosted by the Nevis Tourism Authority (NTA).
Ms Helen Kidd, the Authority’s Chief Executive Officer, in an interview with the Government Information Service (GIS) on November 18, 2006 at a mini Market Place at the Mount Nevis Hotel, said it was important for the agents to see the best Nevis had to offer. She said it was important to remember that these travel agents dealt with independent travellers rather than persons who bought travel packages.
