Economics of Cruise | S3-EP. 49 | Our Take On Cruise

The cruise industry has once again helped in times of need. In the latest edition of ‘Our Take on Cruise,’ Shannon McKee and Roger Blum, delve into significant recent events in the #cruiseindustry. The cruise sector once again demonstrates its humanitarian role as Royal Caribbean International dispatches #RhapsodyoftheSeas to evacuate #USCitizens from Haifa, and MSC Cruises and Mano Maritime assist in repatriating #Israelis. The industry’s commitment to community support often goes unnoticed, but in times of need, they step up without hesitation.
Exciting developments unfold as the Grand Bahama Shipyard Limited welcomes two new giant dry-docks, a game-changer for the cruise industry. Positioned just 90 miles from #Florida, these dry docks address the need for facilities capable of handling today’s massive ships on this side of the Atlantic.
They also explore Norwegian Cruise Line’s expansion of solo cabins, catering to single travelers. Roger regresses to his studies of #economics, and love of supply & demand curves when discussing the real effect of increased future bookings (meaning reduced future supply), and how this will cause cruise pricing to increase. Roger’s unexpected expertise in economics sheds light on the dynamics of increased future bookings affecting cruise pricing.
As a delightful aside, we send a special shoutout to Marie Blum and John Seidel, just because! 🤣 Join us for a comprehensive discussion on the latest developments shaping the cruise industry.
