$70 Oil = Cruise Line fuel surcharges?

June 9, 2009 · Leave a Comment

THE RISING PRICE OF A BARREL OF OIL

The price of oil is nearing $70 per barrel.  When the cruise lines removed fuel surcharges last year they did so with the caveat that IF the price goes to $70 a barrel they can re-impose fuel surcharges of $10 per person/per day or more.  What will happen?  Who knows?  It’s simply one more intangible cost of travel as we cruise through the current worldwide recession.
