A "maiden call" for a cruise ship is the first time a new ship arrives at that particular port. Often, a ceremony is held and the port gives the vessel a plaque marking the date of their call. The plaques are customarily displayed in passenger areas near the bridge, and can vary drastically in size, shape, materials and format.
A stop for a ship is called a port of call. A cruise ship might be said to make a stopover (or port call) at a port of call.
A ship on its first voyage is a ship that is on its maiden voyage.
