Africa CAPE TOWN (Reuters)--The luxury tourist trade has fallen off sharply in South Africa. Hotels catering to the luxury trade have had their profits sharply reduced in the last two years. Tourism executives blame the unsettled conditions in many parts of Africa for the decline. They say people in North Amer- ica and Europe are being frightened off from _ visiting South Africa. Ocean cruises have _practi- cally stopped. Only one cruise liner called last year, and only one is scheduled for this year, against four or five annually a few years ago. } The head of a car rental firm said that he was doing at least four times as much business four years ago as now. "'But I would say there is a renewed interest in the last couple of months," he added.
