2 TRODUCTO The outlook for the cruise industry in 2016 continues to be strong according to travel agents who were surveyed in late February. These agents, who have their finger on the pulse of consumer attitudes, expect to see cruise growth this year, both in the number of people who take cruises and in the amount passengers are spending on cruises. This anticipated growth in cruising appears to be particularly strong in destinations in or near the United tates. gents expect to see considerable growth in laska as well as the Caribbean, Hawaii and ew England. mong categories of cruising, river cruising is poised to show the greatest growth. Cruise customers are focused on value, with nine out of ten agents saying that cost and the overall cruise experience are crucial factors driving purchasing decisions, with itineraries and promotions also important. mong the amenities that are most important to cruisers, the two most significant are stateroom comfort and dining options, followed by stateroom categories and entertainment options. gents say their most important source of new clients by far is through referrals. The next most important sources for new clients are social media, brand recognition and the nternet, showing that agents who are able to navigate the online world have an advantage over their competitors. This survey proves the vital importance of travel agents to the cruise industry, said Cindy D oust, president and CEO, CL. Travel agents are able to direct clients to destinations and categories of cruising that best suit their individual vacation dreams. The return on experience of a vacation means something different to each customer, which is why the one-on-one interactions between agents and their clients are so important in identifying the right cruise for each traveler. 1

Lisa Gardner, of Farmingdale, ew York, speculated, believe the tremendous decrease in gas prices has afforded clients the ability to have more fun money, and therefore are booking more trips. 2

For example, agents who said they expect to see growth in the Luxury segment emphasized the importance of the overall experience and had less sensitivity to cost. However, agents who are experiencing growth in the Mass Market segment placed significantly more emphasis on the overall return on experience. t is not surprising that most travel agents (nearly 60 percent) report growth in booking levels for the Mass Market cruise segment. lmost as many agents cite Premium as a growth category and more than 40 percent of agents are also experiencing growth in the Luxury segment.

Carol Domme, of uthentic laska Travel, in Ketchikan, laska, explains, More young people are taking cruises, so put more focus on edgy social media and at the same time, increased my more traditional outreach programs as well as Facebook.
