When thousands of tourists arrive at the home port, they hope to enjoy eating, shopping, playing and other integrated activities with local characteristics. How to take advantage of their own strengths, to create a complex commercial system, to maximize the "10-hour effect" has become the home port to obtain the economic benefits of the top priority.

According to international practice, a cruise passenger's spending power during a cruise ship's stopover is between $30/hour and $40/hour, and with a minimum spending of $30/hour, 10,000 tourists stopping at the home port area for 10 hours will bring in $3 million in revenue.

"Although in the early stages of the development of the home port, tourist spending is not up to this value, but the future 'sucking money' space is very large." Relevant industry insiders analyzed that the development of the cruise economy can attract a larger amount of consumption, which will also prompt the service industry in the new area to develop in the direction of high-end and fine, which is conducive to enhancing the taste of the whole region.

According to Yang Liang, after the opening of Tianjin International Cruise Terminal, the multi-functional featured consumption such as customs clearance, special catering, hotels, entertainment and leisure, and sightseeing will be gradually improved. Among them, the creation of international first-class duty-free stores through the implementation of duty-free goods and special consumption policies in the bonded port area has become one of the highlights.

"According to the plan, Tianjin International Cruise Terminal will also develop cultural and leisure projects, which will provide visitors with leisure and tourism experiences, such as characteristic neighborhoods or theme parks covering film and television locations, high-tech product exhibition areas, entrepreneurial enterprise pavilions and other modes of business." He told reporters.

In addition, due to seasonal influences, the cruise terminal off-season can also be used as a conference and exhibition purposes to increase revenue. These include, among others, offices, hotels, serviced apartments and convention centers.
