  • Cruise Ship Owners/Operators and Passenger Ship Financing & Management Companies
    More than a Directory! Cruise Ship Owners/Operators and Passenger Ship Financing & Management Companies 1st Edition, April 2013 © 2013 by J. R. Kuehmayer www.amem.at Cruise Ship Owners / Operators Preface The AMEM Publication “Cruise Ship Owners/Operators and Passenger Ship Financing & Management Compa- nies” in fact is more than a directory! Company co-ordinates It is not only the most comprehensively and accurately structured listing of cruise ship owners and operators in the industry, despite the fact that the majority of cruise lines is more and more keeping both the company’s coordinates and the managerial staff secret. The entire industry is obtrusively focused on selling their services weeks and months ahead of the specific cruise date, collecting the money at a premature stage and staying almost unattainable for their clients pre and after cruise requests. They simply ignore the fact that there are suppliers and partners around who wish to keep in touch personally at least with the cruise line’s technical and procurement departments! The rest of the networking-information is camouflaged by the yellow-pages industry, which is facing a real prospect of extinction. The economic downturn is sending the already ailing business into a tailspin. The yellow-pages publishers basically give back in one downturn what took seven years to grow! Cruise Ship Financing It is more than a directory as it unveils the shift in the ship financing sector and uncovers how fast the traditional financiers to the cruise shipping industry fade away and perverted forms of financing are gaining ground. Admittedly there are some traditional banks around, which can maintain their market position through a blend of sober judgements, judicious risk management and solid relationships.

  • Cruise Ship Locations 16 May 2021
    CRUISE SHIP LOCATIONS 16 MAY 2021 Compiled by Mike Pryce, Wellington NZ (Information believed correct at this date. Compiled from various sources and internet AIS, especially www.cruisemapper.com. Excludes ferries and cruise ferries. Many cruise ships have been in “warm” lay-up, when they have periodically moved from their berths or anchorages and gone for short voyages locally to give their engines and equipment “a run”, and including production of freshwater, before returning to lay-up. Ships at anchor periodically need to berth to take onboard fuel, food, provisions and other supplies. Some inter-ship crew transfers at sea are being made, outside port limits. With the resumption of “normal” cruising looking very uncertain in many countries in the near future, more cruise ships are likely to move to “cold” lay-up until the situation becomes clearer, whilst others go into shipyards for overhauls and surveys. Many cruise ships have been in lay-up for over a year, as the initial “pause” has been continually extended due to more Covid-19 outbreaks, and many financial assumptions made on the expectation of an initial two-months lockdown have needed reviewing. This has resulted in many recent sales of older ships, and limited cruising in the Mediterranean and Europe, where these areas are being affected by sporadic outbreaks in Covid-19 infections. The largest concentration of laid-up cruise ships is on the Bahamas Banks (east of Miami and south of Freeport) A large number of cruise ships are anchored off the south coast of England, west of Southampton. Another large group are anchored in the South China Sea, NE of Singapore.

  • THE SUPERLINERS: TWILIGHT of an ERA a National Geographic Film
    JUNE, 2018 VOLUME XXXV, # 6 Friday, June 22, 2018 - 6:00 PM THE SUPERLINERS: TWILIGHT OF AN ERA A National Geographic Film At The Gallery at CCNY, 28 East 35th Street, Manhattan – PLEASE NOTE CHANGE OF VENUE! The legendary QUEEN ELIZABETH 2 arriving in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida in 1979 (Pat Dacey) This educational film produced by National Geographic in association with WQED in Pittsburgh was filmed in 1979 and released in 1980. The film documents a westbound crossing in the QE2 with both crew and passenger interviews, footage from public spaces and working areas of the ship including the bridge and engine room. Also shown is a rare glimpse of her dramatic unassisted docking in New York City by Captain Ridley during a tugboat strike and a commentary about her reduced six-hour turnaround. The film, for which Frank Braynard served as historical advisor, provides rare insight and footage of the QE2 during a period where her future remained uncertain, as rising fuel costs and the competition from air travel challenged the time-honored tradition of crossing the Atlantic by ship. Through archival film footage, the film also examines the role that the ocean liner has played as the "Atlantic Ferry" in times of peace and war, with a discussion of the immigrant trade, the Blue Riband and the superliners of the times. Historical footage captures the NORMANDIE, QUEEN MARY, QUEEN ELIZABETH as well as other liners plying their trade. The film is 50 minutes long and will be shown in its entirety followed by a discussion on the screening as well as recent developments with QE2’s restoration and its grand opening as a floating hotel this October (limited opening on April 18, 2018).

Most of the cruise companies have gained their clienteles trust and have a prominent place at the cruise industry. The majority of them were founded in the second half of the 20th century, and specifically for cruising, some other were founded over 100 years ago as cargo shipping lines. After many failures and mergers in the 1990s , many companies that were used as company brands, within the big corporations came to rise through the constant support of their customers and the loyalty that they provided. Due to the constant changes in the industry, ship owners are always on the hunt in order to keep their vessels updated, by renaming, renovating or even selling them from time to time .The main purpose of a cruise company in general, is to provide to their customers leisure travel, cruise tours, and entertainment and many more amenities, in order to differ from their competitors.
