SS Jeremiah O'Brien cruise sales drop as Fleet Week proceeds without military ships

San Francisco (Crohn) – If the American ships and military aircraft are not part of the fleet week, then the biggest concern is that less than the population of the Gulf region and tourists will come to San Francisco to enjoy the continuing celebrations. The Freedom Ship, Gyremia Operation, which takes 35 headquarters, is witnessing sales that are already slower for its marine flights at the fleet week.

It is located next to the 35th sidewalk in San Francisco, the SS Jeremiah O’Brien. This freedom ship, which was working with the Marine Marine during World War II, was carrying forces and goods from the United States to the United Kingdom and Europe.

This ship will usually carry up to 440 Sherman tanks. “It can carry 2000 pocket cars or nearly a million and a half rounds of ammunition,” said Ken Wright, CEO of Jeremia Operation.

The ship was restored in 1979. Now that anyone can take a self -guiding tour of the ship and see everything from weapons to the radio room to the bridge to sleeping places and the engine room, which was used in the movie “Titanic”.

“The biggest thing they got is the ability to wander around this ship and the experience of this ship mainly as it was in World War II,” said Wright.

But on Saturday and Sunday of the fleet week, an additional special thing happens. The ship makes a naval trip for a full day in the Gulf.

“We go under the Golden Gate Bridge, and we go under the Gulf Bridge,” Wright said. During the air show, we remain, and it is only called the airline, which is somewhat in the middle of the Gulf. So you have this amazing vision of what is happening. ”

Canadian ice birds will be shown in the air exhibition this year. Unfortunately, the loss of the Blue Angels caused by the government closure to hinder the sales of the Jeremiah O’Brien naval flight. In reality. Ticket sales decreased by 50%, which is important.

The two -week -old cruises are generally achieved revenue of about 150,000 USD, and this represents about 10% of our budget.

We hope that ticket sales will rise in the next few days.

If sailing in the Gulf on Jeremiah O’Brien looks like something you want to do, you can get tickets in advance via the Internet, or you can come to the pavement 35 on Saturday or Sunday morning. The gate is opened at 8:30 am, and the ship comes out at 10 am
