Cruise.co.uk: Increased Interest In Cruising

An annual survey from cruise specialist cruise.co.uk has revealed a growing appetite for cruise holidays, with 54% of new-to-cruise guests looking to increase the proportion of their holidays spent at sea.

The findings were revealed as part of a survey of over 8000 cruise.co.uk and seascanner.co.uk customers.

The top reasons cited for an increased interest in cruising over the next two years include:

  • Retirement and more free time (23%)
  • Avoiding the hassle of flying (19%)
  • Value for money (18%), and
  • The convenience of visiting multiple destinations in one trip (15%).

The survey also found an impressive 94% of first-time cruisers reported being either satisfied or very satisfied with their cruise experience.

Tony Andrews, Managing Director of cruise.co.uk, said: “These findings reinforce what we’ve been seeing in the market – not only are seasoned cruisers continuing to make cruise their first choice for holidays, but first-time cruisers are quickly becoming lifelong fans.

“The fact that so many new-to-cruise guests rate their experience positively is a testament to the incredible service, value and variety that a cruise holiday can offer. With more ships, destinations and experiences available than ever, the cruise industry is well-positioned for continued growth.”
