Haifa will be a port of call for some of the world’s most famous cruise ships in 1980, the Israel Government Tourist Office announced here today. Four vessels making round-the-world cruises have Haifa on their itineraries. They are the British Queen Elizabeth 2 and Canberra and the Norwegian Sagafiord and Royal Vikiag Star. The first named departs from New York on January 17 and will embark passengers later at Port Everglades, Fla. and Los Angeles. She is due at Haifa on March 11 and sails for New York and Port Everglades March 12. Sport segments of these three month cruises may be booked, including the Haifa-U.S. sailings, the Tourist Office noted.
