On November 23, the Port of Xiamen officially resumed direct yacht voyages after a six-year hiatus, signaling progress in diversifying its port operations to integrate aviation, Xiamen-Kinmen "mini three links" passenger routes, cruise ships, and yachting into a multi-dimensional framework. This year's continuous growth in cruise services has energized the port. In September, Star Cruises' "Star Voyager" launched the Hong Kong–Xiamen–Hong Kong itinerary, reinforcing collaborative development between Xiamen and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. As of November 15, the Port of Xiamen had received 15 visiting cruise voyages, processing nearly 30,000 inbound/outbound passenger entries, reflecting sustained momentum in the cruise economy.
