Abstract

This study investigates the attitude of cruise tourists towards food along several sustainability dimensions. It finds that health and cultural aspects are most important to cruise travellers. In particular, they value freshly-produced and local food. The study concludes that cruise operators should consider their guests’ needs and expectations more when designing the food supply and especially find ways to better connect to the local food of the destinations they visit.
