What's the "huh" referring to? My "huh" would be why are the cruise
lines going to bring back ships when they have excess capacity there
already. And don't tell me that consumers are shunning Alaska cruises
because of a $46 tax (which is only being reduced $11.50 according to
the article. The article even says it:
