The first for this year tourist liner Princendam with 800 tourists onboard, docked at Port Varna on the Black Sea coast. For the many cruise ships that were expected to dock there but did not, there one single reason – the crisis in Ukraine, comments Vladimir Karadzhov, cruise ships operator for Bulgaria. This year there will be only 8 liners docking at Port Varna, unless any one of them changes route in the last moment. However, there are no bookings for next year, again because of the military conflict in Ukraine.
