Influence of Cruise Ship Size on Length of Stay in Port

ABSTRACT: How long the cruise ship is staying in port? Does that value change during the year? Is the period linked to the number of passengers and the size of the ship? What influences overall period of the stay in port? These questions are just a sample of questions appeared before the research team which tried to establish rules of the Cruise ships seasonal pattern on the East Coast of the Adriatic Sea several questions appeared. Answers to cited questions are presented in this article, obtained by analysing the behaviour of cruise vessels in three biggest ports on the East Coast of the Adriatic Sea during the period of two years.
