Exciting news! "Cruise Boom" is coming to WORLD Channel! Watch it Sunday, January 5th at 7:00 PM EST or Monday, January 6th at 5:00 AM EST.

"Cruise Boom" explores life during cruise tourism season in Sitka, Alaska—a small fishing town nestled between glacial mountains and an island-studded sea. As global tourism booms, local residents grapple with its impacts, benefits, and control. The film examines crucial questions: Who profits from tourism? How much is too much? What does it mean to be a responsible visitor?
