Port charges may be based on a per guest charge.
Or a combination of factors. The port may charge by the length of the ship when computing dock space plus the local immigration/customs people may charge per person. Need a tug boat? That may be by the vessel's gross tonnage or perhaps on an hourly basis. A port-supplied pilot may be a flat fee. I once read that ships home porting at the Port of Los Angeles paid fees to 17 different entities including the Coastal Commission and the LA County Air Quality District. For the latter they were charged per ton of CO the ship generated while in the port. |

I've never been on a poorly booked ship. In fact, I think most of the
ships I've been on have been at capacity. The last cruise I was on (Rhapsody out of Galveston) was sold out. I asked the gal at the check in area what the census percentage was and she said that the ship had been sold out since they started sailing out of Galveston over a year earlier.
