If you Owned the cruiseline...

[JoeyandDavid]

If you owned the cruise line what would be your main focus..The food? The Entertainment.. Customer Service? Something Else? What would make your line stand out from all the rest?

That's a tough one.......For me the food is important but not a deal breaker as long as it's edible.

I guess I'd want to be known for service! My cruiseline would have no tipping and the crew would be paid a real wage so they wouldn't get stiffed by passengers. I hate that! Guess that means I'd have to charge more but for excellent service I think we'd do OK.

I go along with that - 100%!!

My first change would be to go back to real bag tags that stand a chance of staying on your luggage until they reach your room! Pet Peeve!

You've described Regent which is why I love it. Of course, the food is much better than edible--it's great!

I think that most people would not really appreciate true gourmet food, so I think that what most lines do today is right for the masses. I think that I would really emphasize the service area. This is what tends to impress people the most. The other thing I would do is make the cruise truly all-inclusive.

probably food that i would have gain weight LOL joke!!!

I don't think I want to own a cruiseline; but if I inherited a 200' yacht, I'd put it to good use.

On my cruiseline - all the food would be lo fat - lo cal but taste exactly the same as the good stuff.

And the chocolate buffet would not go past my lips straight to my hips!

Hey this isn't reality is it???
