More affluent Americans say they intend to cruise
The American Affluence Research Center has been tracking wealthy consumers' intentions to take a cruise for the past seven years, and it appears the tide is turning for cruises. In April, 12% of respondents said they intended to take a cruise in the next 12 months, while a more recent survey found that 13% of respondents have the same intention. The percentage of respondents who typically say they intend to cruise is around 15% to 19% and has been as high as 22%.
