Creator's Key Takeaways

in normal years about 30 percent of what cruise companies earn in revenue comes in the form of onboard spending

studies have shown again and again that people tend to spend more when paying with a credit card versus paying with cash

seeing the smaller amount is less of a hurdle for many people to overcome to spend the money compared to seeing the price in full right at the start

the casino is always near the heart of the ship usually with easy access from the main promenade

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use your room key card for purchases to potentially spend more due to credit card convenience
Consider per-day pricing for packages to make costs seem smaller and more manageable
Look for sales and discounts on the ship for spa services, specialty restaurants, and more
