Also in port the same day was the Caribbean Princess with a maximum capacity of 3,140 passengers. Last Sunday, October 8, the Adventure of the Seas visited St. Kitts with a maximum capacity of 3,840 passengers. An estimated 120 vessels are scheduled to visit St. Kitts from October 7 to December 31, 2017.
