One of three luxury cruise liners which spent over a year docked in Glasgow during covid recently made its return to Scotland's west coast.
The Azamara Quest was tied up at Shieldhall's King George V Dock alongside sister ships Azamara Journey and Pursuit as covid brought the cruise industry to a halt. The Quest arrived in our city in June 2020 before finally sailing down the Clyde over 12 months later, with crew onboard not even allowed to leave the docks because of covid lockdown regulations.
In that time the ships and their crew developed a real affinity with Glasgow and its people, hundreds of whom lined the banks of the Clyde when the trio finally departed the city in 2021.
