Neil, don't most ships sail at near 100% capacity? Even a repositioning cruise from say Ft. Lauderdale to Vancouver will lose some at Acapulco, L.A. or San Francisco; but if the marketing department is on the ball the vacancies will be filled as a "coastal cruise".
I don't think I've ever heard anybody say, "gee, we're only at 70% capacity this cruise". With all the retirees able to travel at the drop of a hat I can't imagine any ship sailing at much less than 100%.
Yes? No?
