  • Cruising in the Twenty-First Century
    Chapter 1 Cruising in the Twenty-First Century he idea of a cruise vacation is almost mythic. Our perception of cruises Tis often based on idyllic images we’ve seen in movies and on television. Such images usually depict classic ocean liners, which are quite unlike the ships commonly used today. As well as being significantly larger, today’s ships are no longer designed primarily for travel but rather are large-scale, water-based resorts. Despite these significant changes in cruising and the cruise industry over the past fifty years, glamorous images of opulence and “class” have remained relatively intact. These elements frequently underlie the motivation for choosing a cruise vacation. Consumers are buying an image of what they believe a cruise will be—an image more informed by what cruising used to be. Most consumers, for example, still assume a cruise is all inclusive. This is no longer true, and most cruise lines have dropped claims of all inclusive- ness from their advertising and brochures. But this may not be obvious to consumers because cruise advertising is purposely abstract and scarce on concrete statements about the cruise or ship itself. Cruise advertising is full of “feel good” messages. Examples include Royal Caribbean’s “Get out there” commercials, which highlight activity and adventure, and Carnival’s dancing palm trees. These abstract ads leave viewers to focus on whatever is most appealing to them about a cruise vacation. The cruise industry enjoys an image that is more positive than deserved. This is in part a product of collectively spending more than a billion dollars a year on advertising and public relations.

We expect the actual result for the full year to be at the top end of or above this range, with all four quarters of 2002 likely to show year over year increases in earnings per share * 2002 sailings are now almost fully booked * For the third quarter, we expect yields for the Group as a whole to be above our previous forecast, showing a decline on a like for like basis of 5%, with favourable exchange rates reducing the fall to 2% on an absolute basis * We expect Group yields for the fourth quarter to show a year over year increase, on a like for like basis, of 2% to 3%.
