Power of suppliers is relatively low (positive). The largest cost to the industry are the vessels and there are only a handful of
cruise operators around the world. CCL and RCL hold 75% of the market share. It is unlikely that the shipbuilders would be able
to significantly increase the prices of the ships when there are only few buyers. CCL sources it ships from various builders in
Europe and Japan. In situations of increased prices, the industry can extend the use of its current vessels.
