<p>[quote user="oltmannd"]</p> <p>Two comments:</p> <p>One, the blog misses the whole point about Amtrak and food service. Amtrak is a LOUSY food service provider in terms of quality vs. cost. The hospitality industry does a much better job. The trick is to get that expertise into Amtrak. It should improve quality and lower costs at the same time.</p> <p>Two, cruise ships don't make any real money selling rooms and food. The entire ship is a "loss leader" of sorts. The whole profit comes from selling alcohol and port activities. [/quote]</p> <p>How do you know that the whole profit comes from selling alcohol and port activities. Unless one has access to the cruise line books, he would not know that. </p>
