First cruise ship in port since 2019

The Crystal Symphony will arrive in Boston on Wednesday, before embarking on a scheduled weeklong trip to Bermuda this Sunday. The cruise line announced last month that it would host four trips from Boston to Bermuda, starting this Sunday, August 22nd. Both passengers and crew will be fully vaccinated.

City and state public health officials have signed off on the port agreement and the ship is arriving early to clear the last few standard items to get CDC approval.
