Cruise industry booms, but are crew members sharing the gains?
Original: Cruises are booming. Are the crew members benefiting too?
The cruise industry is enjoying record demand as travelers return to sea in large numbers, but attention is turning to the working conditions and pay of the crew members who keep ships running. The question being raised is whether cruise workers are seeing meaningful benefits from the industry's strong recovery and profits, or whether low wages and demanding schedules remain the norm.
Why now: Record cruise bookings have renewed scrutiny of labor conditions and pay for the crews who serve passengers at sea.
