Answer

Hi Lotus, so your teacher was an authoritative answer from WTO or CLIA or whatever? Well, sorry to disappoint your instructor but there is no definition. It has a meaning or terminology determined by industry usage. It is a "shorthand" meaning for "any tourism which includes a substantial amount of cruise travel". Just like we refer to "people", as "pax". It is very common for all industries to assign codes or abbreviations to actions which are commonly used in that industry. It helps to say a lot of words in just a few. By the way, I have over 20 years experience in the travel industry.
