Summary |
Charleston, South Carolina is achieving unprecedented success as a destination. In November 2011, the city was named number one destination in America by the readers of Condé Nast Traveler; the city became home to the new Boeing plant for manufacturing the 787 Dreamliner; and the city was awarded and began new airline passenger service from the award winning Southwest Airlines. During this same period of great successes, the Charleston community was wrapped in a major debate. In 2009, press about a multi-year, year-round passenger cruise contract with Carnival Cruise Lines and a proposal for the redevelopment of a pier inside the gates of the South Carolina State Ports Authority triggered a multi-year highly contested dispute over expansion of the passenger cruise business in the Holy City. This case details and examines the tourism management dilemma surrounding the redevelopment and expansion of the passenger cruise business in Charleston, SC |
