TUI Group is launching new weeklong sailings from Port Canaveral using the 11-deck Marella Discovery cruise ship, targeting United Kingdom holidaymakers from May to November. The holiday travellers are expected to provide an economic boost during their typical two-week Florida vacations, and Space Coast officials predict record-shattering passenger traffic this year at Melbourne Orlando International Airport. The TUI Airways’ Central Florida vacation-package hub has eight cities through mid-December, using Melbourne airport’s newly christened $72 million terminal expansion. The airport’s all-time record was established in 1990 with 765,723 total passengers. Ryals said airport officials are projecting a record-breaking 850,000 total passengers this year.
