Isiqingatha sokuqala esinamandla ngo-2008, sibonisa ukuba abathengi bayaphendula kwisindululo sexabiso lokuhamba ngenqanawa

Fort Lauderdale – Impembelelo yoqoqosho lweshishini lokuhamba ngenqanawa kuMntla Merika eMelika ikhule ngeepesenti ezingaphezulu kwesithandathu ngo-2007, idala imisebenzi engaphezulu kwama-350,000 ngelixa ivelisa i-38 yeebhiliyoni zeedola kwimveliso yezoqoqosho iyonke, ngokophononongo lwesizwe olukhutshwe namhlanje yiCruise Lines International Association. I-CLIA).

Ukongeza kuphononongo lwesizwe, umbutho ukwakhuphe amanani abakhweli amva nje kwisiqingatha sokuqala salo nyaka. Ukusukela ngoJanuwari ukuya kuJuni, umzi-mveliso wokuhamba ngenqanawa ubone ukonyuka kweepesenti ezi-5.43 kubakhweli kwihlabathi liphela, kunye nabahlali malunga neepesenti ezili-105.

"Imiyalezo emibini ecacileyo iphuma kuphononongo lwefuthe loqoqosho luka-2007 kunye namanani abakhweli ngoJanuwari-Juni," utshilo uTerry L. Dale, umongameli kunye neCEO ye-CLIA. “Okokuqala, ishishini lokuhamba ngenqanawa laseMntla Merika liyaqhubeka nokuba negalelo elibonakalayo nelikhulayo kuqoqosho lwaseMelika kwaye ishishini livelisa uphuhliso lweshishini notyalo-mali, ukudala imisebenzi kunye nenkcitho kuwo onke amaphondo angama-50.

"Okwesibini, ezi zalathisi zintle zibonisa into yokuba abathengi bayaqhubeka nokuphendula ngamandla nangokuqinisekileyo kwixabiso elibalaseleyo elimele ikhefu lokuhamba ngenqanawa kunye nemveliso entsha efana nentengiso yeholide."

UDale uthe ukukhula koqoqosho kusisiphumo sezigqibo zamalungu e-CLIA zokubonelela abathengi abafikelelekayo, ukhetho olwandisiweyo kwiindawo zokusingwa kwihlabathi liphela, izinto ezintsha eziluncedo kunye nolonwabo, iindlela zehlabathi kunye namachweba amaninzi okuqalisa kufutshane nalapho kuhlala izigidi zabantu baseMelika.

"Nangexesha elingaqinisekanga lezoqoqosho, umthengi wase-US uyayibona le miba njengexabiso elinamandla," utshilo uDale. Ukwaqaphele ukuba abathengi bamazwe aphesheya banomdla wokuhamba ngenqanawa ngenxa yomthamo omtsha kunye nowongezelelweyo obekwe kwiMeditera naseYurophu. Igalelo ekukhuleni kohambo lokuhamba ngenqanawa kuMntla Merika likwaphenjelelwa ziimveliso ezintsha zokuhamba ngenqanawa kunye notshintshiselwano lwemali oluncomekayo lwabantu baseYurophu. Amanani kwisiqingatha sokuqala sika-2008 abonisa ukunyuka okuchukumisayo kwama-31 ekhulwini kubakhweli abavela kumazwe ngamazwe.
“Kuyakhuthaza ukubona ukukhula okuzinzileyo kwabakhweli kunye nokuhamba ngenqanawa okuphezulu. Ngelixa uninzi lokukhula kwabakhweli luvela kwiindwendwe ezivela kumazwe ngamazwe, abakhweli abavela kuMntla Melika baphinde bathumela iinzuzo zonyaka-enyakeni eziyi-.29 ekhulwini kwikota yesibini. Ngo-1995, ngaphantsi kweepesenti ezili-10.6 zeendwendwe ezihamba ngenqanawa kwi-CLIA yeendlela zokuhamba ngenqanawa zafunyanwa ngaphandle koMntla Melika kwaye, unyaka ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, loo pesenti ikhule ukuya kuma-20.5 ekhulwini. Iimarike zamazwe ngamazwe zibaluleke kakhulu kumalungu amaninzi e-CLIA kwaye kuyavuyisa ukubona ukuba utyalo-mali lwabo kule mimandla luhlawula ngokukhawuleza. "

Uphononongo olusanda kukhutshwa lwe-CLIA Economic Impact ka-2007, olwenziwa yi-BREA (uPhando lwezoShishino kunye nabaCebisi ngezoQoqosho) e-Exton, ePennsylvania, lufumanise ukuba kunyaka ophelileyo ishishini lokuhamba ngenqanawa laseMntla Melika lifake isandla kwiidola ezingama-38 eebhiliyoni kwimveliso yezoqoqosho, ukwanda kwe-6.4 ekhulwini ngo-2006, kwaye kwadalwa Ngama-354,700 emisebenzi yaseMelika, enefuthe elihle kuwo onke amazwe elizweni kwaye phantse kuwo onke amashishini amakhulu.

Inkcitho ethe ngqo kwishishini kunye nabakhweli bayo e-US igqithile kwi-18 yeebhiliyoni zeedola ukuze inyuke ngepesenti eyi-5.9 ngaphezulu kowama-2006. Kwangaxeshanye, ishishini ligcine umyinge we-105 ekhulwini lokuhlala abantu * ngelixa linyusa umthamo, imveliso eyahlukeneyo kunye nokwandisa imisebenzi kwihlabathi jikelele.

* Umthamo osekelwe kwiibhedi ezimbini (okanye abantu) kwikhabhathi nganye. Amanani anyukayo aya kudlala xa kusenziwa undwendwe lwesithathu okanye lwesine kwindlu enye okanye kwi-stateroom.

Iziphumo eziphambili zophononongo lwefuthe loqoqosho luka-2007 ziquka:

• Inkcitho kushishino lokuhamba ngenqanawa kunye nabakhweli bayo benze i-$38 yeebhiliyoni kwimveliso epheleleyo e-US, ukusuka kwi-35.7 yeebhiliyoni zeedola ngo-2006.
• Inkcitho ethe ngqo kushishino kunye nabakhweli bayo e-US iphelele kwi-18.7 yeebhiliyoni zeedola, i-5.9 yepesenti yonyuka ngo-2006.

• Ezi mpembelelo zoqoqosho zizonke zichaphazele onke amazwe angama-50. Amazwe ali-10 aphezulu athatha i-78 yeepesenti yokuthenga ngokuthe ngqo kunye nama-82 ekhulwini eempembelelo zengqesho zizonke kunye nengeniso: 1. Florida, 2. California, 3. Alaska, 4. New York, 5. Texas, 6. Hawaii, 7. Georgia, 8. Washington, 9. Illinois kunye, 10. Colorado
• Ngaphezu kwama-60 epesenti yesiphumo esipheleleyo kunye nama-40 epesenti yokudalwa kwemisebenzi kuchaphazele amaqela asixhenxe oshishino (abekwe ngokolandelelwano lwemveliso): ukwenziwa kwezinto ezinganyamezelekiyo, iinkonzo zobuchwephesha nezobuchwephesha, iinkonzo zohambo, ukwenziwa kweempahla ezomeleleyo, iinkonzo zemali, uthutho lweenqwelo-moya kunye norhwebo lwehoseyile.
• Phakathi kwezinto eziphambili ezinegalelo kwimpembelelo entle yezoqoqosho:
•
o Ngokwanda kwe-8.8 yeepesenti kwiintsuku zokulala ezifumanekayo kunye nokunyuka komndilili wobude bokuhamba ngenqanawa ukusuka kwiintsuku ze-6.9 ukuya kwiintsuku ze-7.2, ishishini liye laqaphela ukunyuka kwe-9.8 ekhulwini kwiintsuku zokulala zabagibeli kunye nokusetyenziswa komthamo obanzi we-104.9 ekhulwini.
