UK market shows resilience despite rising cost of living
The UK cruise market has shown resilience so far despite rising cost of living, although households are expected to face another significant increase in energy prices from the autumn onwards.
Princess Cruises has reported customer demand for 2023 sailings is “well outstripping” previous years – two months after the line achieved its record booking day in the UK, Travel Weekly reports.
Eithne Williamson, the line’s vice-president of UK and Europe, explained how the biggest-ever booking day in late June had been a key driver for the current 2023 cruise booking volumes Princess was seeing.
