In 2020 the embarkations on the cruise ships of the world fleets have collapsed by -81%
CLIA believes that in 2022 companies can recover much of the lost ground
January 28, 2022
The development of the industry in 2020 is focused on the Annual Report "2022 State of the Cruise Industry Outlook" released yesterday by the international cruise association Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA), which highlights how the health emergency, in addition to the -81% drop in the embarkations of passengers, has led to a sharp decrease in the number of work supported by cruises, which decreased by -51% falling from 1.17 million in 2019 to 576 thousand units, so as a sharp contraction in the contribution of cruises to the world economy which was 63.4 billion dollars, -59% compared to the previous year.
The report also focuses on the progress made in the restart of the cruise industry, which currently records more than 75% of the capacity of ships from ocean cruise of CLIA member companies back in service, while it is expected by next August on return to full operation of all capacity offered by fleets.
This year, in addition, the entry into service of 16 new CLIA vessels, including five powered liquefied natural gas and nine expedition ships, for a total of 272 ships of the member companies active during 2022. If for 2022 the association predicts that the number of cruise passengers who will will embark on all world fleets will be included between 78% - in the worst case scenario - and 101% - in the best - of the 2019 issue, the CLIA believes that in 2026 the growth of the number of passengers will still be higher by +12% compared to 2019 levels.
