Britain’s Cruise Industry Rides the Crest of the Wave

Figures released today from the Passenger Shipping Association (PSA) show that 1.65 million Brits are expected to take a cruise in 2010 – more than a seven percent increase on 2009 and more than double the figure recorded in 2000. The PSA’s 2009 Cruise Review demonstrates that cruising has continued to grow in popularity with 1.53 million UK holidaymakers taking a cruise last year despite a challenging year for the travel industry.
