There are over 417 million Spanish speakers world wide and Crystal Cruises are focusing on them!! Crystal Cruises, which is a Luxury cruise line, have released a 211-page world Atlas that outlines their entire 2011 cruise itinerary in SPANISH!!! But, will this affect the language barriers that already exist on board cruise ships? Will it open doors for English speaking passengers to learn Spanish prior to boarding so they can communicate with fellow Spanish speaking passengers?
There are many positive reasons for Crystal Cruises releasing their “Spanish Atlas,” but are there any negative ones? Even though within Spanish speaking countries there are potential clients that could afford going on a cruise, there is a great majority that cannot afford to pay for a Luxury Cruise or any cruise in that case!!!
