Are Cruise Lines Becoming the Low-Cost Airlines of the Sea?
Norwegian Cruise Line has sparked debate after introducing a $5 charge for an extra main course at dinner… a move that’s raising eyebrows across the cruise community. In this video, I break down what this change really means for cruisers, why it’s happening now, and whether it signals a bigger shift toward the “low-cost airline” model at sea. We’ll look at how cruise dining has evolved, the profitability behind onboard spending, and whether passengers actually prefer à la carte pricing or the traditional all-inclusive experience. Are cruise lines nickel-and-diming their guests to death, or simply offering more choice? Let’s talk about it. 👀 Watch my review of a fully inclusive cruise line here: https://youtu.be/i3EOBu4GKT8 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 🛳️ My website hosts one of the world's most powerful cruise search engines where you can research and even book your next cruise or land holiday.
