Thanks for the heads-up. So 25% of their income comes from passengers' on-board spending? Wow. No wonder they push bingo, photos, art auctions, spa treatments, casinos, drinks, specialty restaurants, jewelry by the inch etc etc.

Yes, I have heard each of the major cruise line CEO's state that they make no profit on the cruise fare, they have to make their living off onboard services and excursions.

I really like the look of this ship. I am impressed.

It's the same scenerio as the gas stations; they don't make their profit from selling gas; they make their profit from auto repairs.:D
