Conventions and Cruise Ships Create Call Surges

When a major convention is in town or cruise ships dock at the port, Long Beach restaurants near the waterfront see call volumes spike as attendees and passengers search for dinner. These are time-sensitive calls — the convention ends at 5 PM and everyone needs dinner by 7 PM. Miss the call and they walk to the next restaurant.
