ORLANDO, Fla. — Port Canaveral is projecting a banner rebound in its financial projections for the 2022 fiscal year.
Port CFO Michael Poole presented the initial operating and capital budget proposal at a port commission meeting Wednesday that projects $85.1 million in cruise revenue for the fiscal period from Oct. 1, 2021-Sept. 30, 2022.
That exceeds the record set for the 2019 fiscal year that topped $81.9 million. The revenues from both the 2020 and 2021 fiscal years were hit by the COVID-19 shutdown leading to more than 16 months without major cruise lines sailing from the port.
