Malaysian-based stargaring cruises already slapped a daily fee on Asia sailings, booked after March 20th, hitting between 19 and 26. Dollars per guest per day for anyone two years and up. Larger lines might follow suit, since most contracts hide clauses, letting them add 9-12 dollars per person per day if oil tops certain. Levels. Both folks are spotting this in the fine print, even on fully paid trips. Passengers are fired up online, venting in groups like Royal Caribbean's that they ditch a line pulling this post payment.
