Theming for Enhanced Pleasure in Luxury Services
Theming creates cohesion and adds an element of fantasy to travel experiences. While themed environments have been widely studied, themed activities—especially on cruises—offer coordinated experiences centered on a hobby or interest. These curated events meet fragmented market demand and cater to niche communities, contributing to the popularity of themed cruises. (Source: The rise of themed cruises, 2011)
