From the Blue Man Group on Norwegian Epic to a Broadway production of “Chicago” scheduled for the new Allure of the Seas in December, never have there been as many entertainment choices for vacationers at sea.
As the size of new mass-marketed cruise ships continues to grow toward the gigantic resorts of Las Vegas, the scope and quality of entertainment -- like the proliferation of alternative restaurants -- have become a major part of the getaway package.
It’s all about competition for the dollars spent by vacationers. Cruise lines such as Carnival, Norwegian and Royal Caribbean are in a race against land resorts to prove that sea vacations are just as good -- and at a better price.

Try to find that package, at cruise prices, in a land resort.
