MIAMI and LONDON, June 8, 2021 — Landry & Kling Global Ship Services, leaders in sourcing and logistics for vessel charters, floating accommodations and cruise events worldwide, has brokered the cruise vessel MS Silja Europa, in partnership with Bibby Marine UK, to serve as housing for 1,000 of the estimated 6,500 police officers tasked with providing security for the high-profile leaders attending the 2021 G7 Summit scheduled for June 11-13 in Carbis Bay, Cornwall, England.Â
This is the first in person meeting of the G7 in two years and is the largest police operation in England this year. Cornwall is a small coastal County known for its natural beauty.
“Bringing in an accommodation ship is an ideal option for solving the additional housing needs of this summit,” said Joyce Landry, CEO Landry & Kling. “We can provide large scale accommodations and critically needed facilities, cost effectively, and with little to no impact on the environment or the local infrastructure. The vessel offers hotel grade accommodations and food service and will keep the security services nearby and in close communication.”
