Creator's Key Takeaways

why are travelers saying they won't cruise even cruise lovers some unexpected and rather surprising reasons beyond the obvious

the biggest and most important cruising audience is those people that i guess would classify as seniors so people who in their 50s 60s 70s and beyond
