Port of Baltimore on strike
A strike at the Port of Baltimore that has stopped all operations at the nation’s ninth-busiest port may impact cruise ships coming to town.
Local 333 of the International Longshoremen’s Association, representing about 1,000 workers, is on strike over stalled contract negotiations, and three other unions have joined the strike in solidarity.
A Royal Caribbean cruise is scheduled to arrive today, but the company says it "has prepared contingency plans in the event the longshoremen will not assist us with baggage," and declined further comment.
Carnival and American Cruise Lines also sail out of Baltimore; Carnival told TravelMole it has no ships coming through the port this week.
The Port of Baltimore handles 30 million tons of cargo each year and is a growing port for cruise ships.
