Cruise Industry Outlook 2013 | Leisure Group Travel

Port of San Juan

Port of San Juan

Last year turned out to be a challenging one for the cruise industry. The loss of lives on the Costa Concordia off the coast of Italy in January had a negative impact on the public?s perception of cruising. Then unexpected low water levels occurred as cruising on the Mississippi River was relaunched after an absence of several years. Finally, Hurricane Sandy hurled her wrath on some islands in the Caribbean, then moved up the coast, affecting New York City, a prime departure port for some cruise lines. As the industry moves into 2013, however, industry leaders see some positive things occurring.

For insights into the year ahead, Leisure Group Travel spoke with Richard Sasso, president & CEO of MSC Cruises; Kevin Sheehan, CEO, Norwegian Cruise Line; and Timothy Beebe, vice president, American Cruise Lines.
