Current Trends Influencing the Cruise Market's Direction
Sustainability is becoming a central priority for cruise companies, with many investing in eco-friendly technologies. One notable advancement is the development of LNG-powered cruise ships that utilize liquefied natural gas instead of conventional marine fuels. This switch not only reduces harmful emissions but also increases energy efficiency and may lower operational costs over time.

A practical illustration of this innovation took place in February 2024, when Princess Cruises launched two LNG-powered vessels, including the Sun Princess. Equipped with two LNG tanks holding 70,000 cubic feet each, these ships highlight the industry's commitment to reducing its carbon footprint and aligning with global environmental goals. Such steps signal a broader move toward cleaner, greener cruising experiences.

1) By Type: Ocean Cruises and River Cruises
2) By Size: Small, Mid-sized, and Large vessels
