Disagree strongly. Gourmet meals are included and nothing beats waking up to a different view on your balcony every day. Plus there’s so much to do on the ship, you hardly have to even get off at the ports (but of course you still should).

Best vacation ever. If I lived near the east coast, I’d go on a cruise every year. They’re a lot less expensive than you think. The flight is the most expensive part.

Cruises are cool. The problem is that modern cruises are ecologically ass and only reasonably affordable to the rich.

I don’t get that opinion. It’s a place where you, depending on what you pay for, get to eat and drink as much as you like, while reading in the sun. Sometimes you even stop in ports and find other cool places to visit later. If you can’t ignore the other passengers, then you need a higher level in Ignore.

You misspelled “floating viral incubator”

there’s also the weaponized floating parking-lot
