Sat. Jan 18, 2012. Costa
Cruises confirms the evacuation of about 3,200 passengers and 1,000
crew members on board of the Costa Concordia. An incident occured near
the island 'Isola del Giglio' of the coast of Italy. The evacuation
started promptly, but the position of the ship has worsened, making it
more complicated to complete the last part of the evacuation. At this
moment, the cause of the incident cannot yet be confirmed. The Company
is currently working with the highest commitment to provide all the
needed assistance. The Costa Concordia was sailing across the
Mediterranean Sea, starting from Civitavecchia with scheduled calls to
Savona, Marseille, Barcelona, Palma de Mallorca, Cagliari and Palermo.
About 1.000 passengers of Italian nationality were onboard, as well as
more of 500 Germans, about 160 French and about 1.000 crew members.
The Guests had to embark today in Savona and in subsequent ports will be contacted directly by Costa Cruises.


Using the ideas and concepts of "Understanding Tourism" please discuss:
a. What influences let to the development of a tourism product like a one-week mediterranean cruise with more than 3,700 passengers on the Costa Concordia?
in terms of tourism
- regulating
- commodifying
- embodying
- performing
- relation with everyday
- relation with otherness
- relation with environment
- relation with past
- relation with mobility
b. How can Carnival Cruises react to the event?

Theme Park: Die Ostalgie-Welle rollt weiter: In Berlin ist ein "DDR Funpark"
geplant. In den Rathenau-Hallen in Oberschöneweide im Osten der Stadt
soll nach Angaben der Kunsthistorikerin Susanna Reich "DDR-Alltag zum
Anfassen" dokumentiert werden.
Noch sei das Projekt in der Planungsphase. Auf keinen
Fall wollten sich die Veranstalter, die Massine Productions GmbH, über
die DDR lustig machen. "Das Ganze soll inhaltlich korrekt sein und einen
fundierten historischen Hintergrund haben", Der Gang durch den Themenpark soll
DDR-typisch mit Einreise und Zwangsumtausch beginnen. In der Show können
die Besucher dann den ostdeutschen Alltag kennen lernen: Vom Wohnen,
Einkaufen, Möbel, Kleidung bis hin zu Filmen. Die Ausstellung richtet
sich besonders an Touristen.
