Yes..... cruise ships/companies could and should do a hell of a lot more to be more eco-friendly. Too often they only take corrective measures after being fined or pressured.

I used to think they were a pretty cool idea, but realize it is just an excuse to float an entertainment complex on the ocean and take in a few views. They don't even stay at places long enough to experience much.

"Will we ever take cruise holidays again?"


I love cruises, but don't see myself inside one of those things any time in the near future. Also.... these cruise line companies always trying to build a bigger and bigger ship. That should definitely become a thing of the past. Who the hell wants to walk into a floating petri dish with 8 thousand other people??

If the prices go down I may be able to afford to go now and have the whole Ship to myself!

A pandemic is definitely the very worst moment possible to be on a cruise where contaminated people are, but even then, I've never been super keen on seacruises, as I think it's pretty much expensive to be caught on a boat, especially if we do consider all the pollution it does.
