TOTAL NEW SHIPS ON ORDER 41
TOTAL GROSS TONNAGE ON ORDER 3,809,300

As with all aspects of the cruise industry, the information is subject to change. Current tonnage on order once again has surpassed the 3.8 million gross ton mark. The most recent contracts are nearly evenly split between vessels over 100,000 gross tons and those below that figure. A significant area of growth has been from orders placed by luxury cruise operators. As these newbuilds come on line, the cruise industry will continue to see significant expansion from now through 2012 - Shawn Dake.
