Ultra luxury cruise line Crystal Cruises has given an award for its environmental initiatives by the Port of Los Angeles.
The accolade, 2012 Vessel Speed Reduction Programme, is in recognition of the line slowing its speed as it entered and left the port, thus using up less fuel.
Both of Crystal’s ships – Symphony and Serenity – were given the awards.
“Our Crystal Clean ethos permeates all of our operations worldwide,” says William Boehm, Crystal’s director of marine compliance. “From greener approaches to sailing, to our ‘Nothing Overboard’ policy and You Care, We Care voluntourism programme, we are continually seeking out opportunities to reduce our ecological impact and enhance environmental stewardship wherever we sail.”
