#According to Perfume Shop owner, Timothy Lightbourne, the cruise visitors who traffic Bay Street are not spending any money. He explained: “The Bahamian part of business is very hopeful. It is the tourist part that isn’t.
#“The tourists don’t have any money. You have doubled the amount of cruises available in the last 10 years. There are not enough people to fill them up, so the rates have gone down. You’ve encouraged a different type of person to cruise, and they don’t have any money. It’s all pre-paid, kind of like Sandals and Breezes on a boat.”
