In this update, we delve into the escalating tensions between P&O, Cunard, and their workforce as over 900 crew members face the possibility of being fired and re-hired. Contract negotiations with the union have hit a roadblock, with both sides accusing the other of negotiating in bad faith. Meanwhile, the Balearic Islands are experiencing a significant surge in cruise passengers, raising concerns about environmental impact and preservation. Explore the implications of this growing trend, including the potential influence of Spain's new VAT introduced in 2023. Plus, catch the latest on Royal Caribbean's unexpected stowaway โ€“ a furry feline quarantined on the Ovation of the Seas, and MSC's significant investment with the inauguration of the Nelson Mandela Terminal in South Africa, set to create 10,000 jobs and house the MSC Splendida from November 2023 to March 2024.
