Great Lakes cruises projected to bring in 23K passengers, $300M in economic impact in 2026
The Great Lakes cruising season begins soon, and it’s expected to be another record year for ports and ships along the Great Lakes.
Late last year, Cruise the Great Lakes, the region’s cruise marketing program, said that it expects to see a 25% increase in economic impact from 2025.
That means more passengers, more port visits and more spending during the season, which runs late spring through early fall.
According to the organization, Great Lakes cruises are expected to bring in $300 million in economic impact on destinations across the lakes.
