But Mr. Rokaas said he does not anticipate a similar scenario. He said the previous firm, Bay Ferries Ltd., which runs ferry services in Canada, lost its focus on Miami during the tourist off-season. He said his company intends to give Miami passengers and cargo year-round attention. Carnival, Royal Caribbean and Norwegian cruise lines offer services from the port on vessels that can hold about 3,000 passengers. Infants travel free and children between 3-12 can travel free except on weekends beginning Friday, when they pay half the adult fare.
Adults can carry two full-sized luggage containers.
Cargo costs are 15 cents a pound.
