Melbourne is facing a cruise crisis — and the numbers are worse than you think.
In this video, I reveal the three shocking figures that expose the collapse of Melbourne’s cruise season. From a massive 65% drop in turnarounds to a loss of millions in potential revenue, this video breaks down what really happened — and why some cruise lines may not be telling the whole truth.
Was it the Victorian Government’s fault? Or is the cruise industry using Melbourne as a scapegoat for a much bigger issue?
👉 If you’re a cruise fan, traveller, or just someone who cares about how policy affects tourism and business — this one’s for you.
