This.
Add to it that it is a FILTHY industry. Time and time again they have shown complete disregard for international pollution laws. The industry has paid out hundreds of millions of dollars in fines in the last ten years in the US alone, but they don't seem to care, their practices have not changed. They have also destroyed many of the world's pristine places and ruined many unique cultures to build ports.
One of my former employees, a Brazilian, worked for the cruise industry for three years. He described it as indentured servitude, almost slavery.
The ships themselves can be crime ridden and dangerous. Many of the crimes, ranging from petty theft to rape, are not investigated in any meaningful way.
They also promote obesity, greed and alcoholism.
In no way should they be bailed out. We, as a world, need to take this opportunity to put an end to the industry in its current state once and for all. No more cruises for more than 200 passengers at a time. It will be painful in the short term from an economic standpoint, but is the correct long term move.
