Have to say after reading your list of questions that in my opinion it is a bit too long.
Also ....If you took some time and went through the different sections of cruise chat, you would get lots of answers to most of those questions and then you could come back and ask about the few things you need help on.
There is lots of helpful information on here if you read through that will give you a good insight into cruising.
This is a friendly forum and you will find members will be pleased to help but maybe first we can learn a little more about you.
1) what subject are you studying at the university ?
2)What is the title of this project ?
3)What relevence has this project to the course you are doing ?
4)What year are you in at university...is this your last year ?
Also ....I hope you don't mind me asking this ,but i am puzzeled by the way you have worded question 9.Are you actually writing a humourous book on cruise addiction and trying to find out if it would be popular ?
Anyway I'm sure that others members will be delighted to assist you....but as I said ,I think you would get a great feel of cruising addiction and have alot of fun reading the previous views of members.
1.54, 2.F, 3.M, 4.daily, 5. Yes, during 1st cruise, 6. can't get enough, 7.1,6, 8.cruise, visit websites, read, look at my pictures and videos, 9.Sure, 10.through the cruise line, 11.No,too much else to do, 12.daily, both, 13.internet, 14.Cruise-chat, pretty much the same thing as #8.
Jack2007 is correct, look through the posts and I'll bet you'll find a lot of information. Better yet, take a cruise and then you'll have first hand insight

I am a senior Marketing major at The Ohio State University, so yes this is my last year. The project is to develop a business strategy for Dr. Kruz Nutty, who has recently written a humour book on cruise addiction. We have to research potential customers (cruise addicts!) their motivations, unmet needs etc.

Thank you for being so honest with your reply CruiseStudent....its good to see you are taking a close interest in the responses.
What I said before still goes...if you look further down General Cruise Chat you will see we have at least 2 topics that may help...."is it really that good & Do I have cruising addiction.
I'm sure that you will get some more replies to assist your research
Also now you have an interest, as Penny3333 suggested why don't you try going on a little cruise next year
