Default Carnival Freedom Europe 2009 canceled

The cruise lines have to pay thier crews in euros, as well as their
taxes and fees. And the cost of fuel is just going to do nothing but
go up. $9 a day? Sure, soon to be $12, then $15, then $18. Where
does it end?

Have you looked at cruise fares in the Med for this year vs 2007?

The airlines tried a fare hike over the weekend that didn't stick.
Then American put out another surcharge, that appears to be staying.


Not everyone, if indeed anyone is paid in euro on Carnival or RCI. MSC
for sure does, but I am not aware of the mainstream lines paying in euro
except perhaps for upper level employees who might demand such as a part
of the contract.
