MIAMI (WSVN) - Norwegian Cruise Line hosted a dedication ceremony for a new modern terminal at the Port of Miami, Thursday.

“This new terminal will be an iconic part of Port of Miami, it will assure us that we will continue to be the cruise capital of the world,” said Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez.

The terminal will feature new technology for quicker security screening, luggage check-in and more. It is also expected to expand tourism in Miami.
