Let's reflect on three inspiring days at #CLIACruiseWeek in Genoa:   A keynote address from CLIA | Cruise Lines International Association's Jason Liberty's on the cruise sector's value proposition and TUI's Wybcke Meier's panel contributions on cruise guests' attitudes towards #sustainability and #awareness point in the direction of Téthys Naval and #ComfortManagement: our products and services for the cruise sector were launched at exactly the right time.   The Response Capability and Situational Awareness Training, based on general risk analyses and safety assessments in maritime tourism regions, common ports of call and typical behaviour patterns, is a significant resource for the preparation and predictability of #CruiseComfort. https://lnkd.in/dBmwyTR8   We were delighted to see and to discuss our topics with - among others - Silversea Cruises, Royal Caribbean Group, Windstar Cruises, AIDA Cruises, MSC Cruises, with Fratelli Cosulich Group and Blue Water Shipping, with World Ocean Council, Ocean Exchange and CNN. We enjoyed the surprise of old friends, Fred Kenney, Paul Holthus, Claudius v. Hagen, and were delighted to meet new ones.   You did a fulminant job, CLIA in Europe and Marie-Caroline Laurent's team.   #UNSDG #SDG14 #SDG16 #SDG8 #shippingindustry #cruiseindustry #cruiseship #maritimelaw #ruleoflaw #privatesecurity #protection #securityconsulting #maritimebusiness #maritimeleadership #humanrightsatsea #lawsoftheseas #maritimeenforcement #justiceatsea #securitycomfort
