Why do these cruise lines insist on docking at industrial ports?
It's a rhetorical question really because I already know the answer.
It's cost, I understand that it costs less to dock in industrial ports ; that's fair enough, I get the fact that the company needs to save money.
But when you are in an industrial port, you are not allowed to walk around the port or even walk to the port gate.
Fine I get that too, it's all to do with safety, but why do the cruise company insist on charging $12 or $15 for the shuttle?
It was their choice to dock there, but if we want to visit the town we do not have the option of making our own way.
Take Ashdodl as an example, the cruise compass leaflet tells you how nice the town is, but if you want to get out of the port to visit it, it will cost you $15, if you had the option of either walking or getting the shuttle that's fine, but you don't have the option.
The cruise line as usual has you by the balls.
