interesting report(at least to me).

 

Cape Liberty passenger counts dropped from 2010 to 2011. larger ships have less employers per passenger and cost less.

The ships are almost always 100 full(when counting the lower two's).

Ships leaving from the US tend to be younger than the overall fleet 8 years old as opposed to 10 years world wide.

 

The three busiest cruise ports are in Florida. The fourth is NY city's(manhattan and brooklyn)...Cape Liberty is listed separately.
