Sail to New York - from Dover
Next year will see a cruise line operating luxury sailings between Dover and New York.
Holland America Line (HAL) has chosen Dover as its UK homeport for 2011 and will feature a number of transatlantic trips docking in the Big Apple - long regarded as the gateway to the US.
These will include nine round trips between May and August on two of its ships, including one of its latest Signature Class vessels, MS Eurodam.
Mediterranean, Scandinavian, Baltic and Norwegian-fjords cruises are also to be scheduled.
Kate O'Hara, marketing director at the Port of Dover, said: "We are thrilled HAL has cemented its commitment to the UK by choosing Dover as its homeport in 2011."
Lynn Narraway, Holland America Line's UK managing director, added: "We are delighted to have two of our premium ships homeporting from Dover for summer 2011.
"This shows the brand's increased commitment to growing passenger numbers in the UK."
