Sažetak
Maritime transport has a significant role in economic exchange, and it is the EU countries that make up a crucial segment of world maritime transport. Passenger shipping is a special type of maritime shipping that continuously, using special ships, performs maritime transport of passengers. Ships specializing in passenger transport, whether on cruises or regular passenger transport, are taking over the dominance of maritime traffic. The paper analyses the system of functioning of the maritime shipping with special emphasis on its subsystem - passenger traffic and it's trends in European Union. Although maritime traffic in the past was the only way for people to travel between continents, it still has many effects today. Maritime shipping contributes to the development of coastal cities, connects islands with the mainland, is important for the development of the economy of all coastal areas, countries with access to the sea and the EU as a whole. Recently, there has been an intensive increase in demand for passenger shipping. Contribution of this paper is simultaneously marked by the following trends: it is noted that shipping companies are concentrating on a smaller number of ports of call, the number of shipping companies is reduced to several large ones through the consolidation of small shipping companies, incresing number of various services and products intended for passengers are introduced. The most significant one is the increase in the quality of services provided to passengers. Analysing development trends, today's modern passenger terminals must meet the increasingly demanding and complex needs of maritime passengers both in liner shipping and cruises.
