CLIA predicts 23M passengers on cruise lines in 2015

The Cruise Lines International Association forecasted that around 23 million passengers will sail in cruise ships around the world in 2015 at a New York press conference on February 9, a number which is a 4% increase from 2014’s recorded data, the Miami Herald reported.

Adam Goldstein, president and chief operating officer of Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. and the association’s new chairman, said this outlook was based on the fact that many of CLIA’s cruise line members have invested in new and highly innovative cruise ships and because new ports have been constructed across the globe.

Cruise ship passengers are vulnerable on cruise ships due to their isolated location on the world’s oceans. This can become dangerous when an injury occurs, as sufficient medical care may not be immediately available.
