Cruising and pampering may go hand in hand, but when it comes to the top end of the market the operators take it to a whole new level.
As we see in the latest issue of TWcruise, passengers who sample the delights of the ‘ultra luxury’ five-star-plus sector can expect the royal treatment, from luxury suites and staterooms,and spas and treatments, to exciting activities to sumptuous food – not to mention top-notch excursions at exotic ports of call.
Luxury cruising is big money, and with passengers spending top dollar on high-end itineraries, they understandably want some bang for their buck. As a result, operators are under constant pressure to raise their game, but as we see they are more than up for the challenge.
Elsewhere in the issue we bring you the latest news and statistics from the different sectors and look at issues such as overcrowding at popular destinations in the Mediterranean.
Happy cruising!
