Have you ever been on a cruise?

Question

An Alaskan cruise has a lot of pretty scenery and is probably not as crowded as some tropical destinations. I was always worried some disease would break out and everyone would be quarantined to their cabins for the whole trip.

I've been on a couple of cruises. They were okay but not great. I didn't like the fact that wherever the boat stopped it would only stay for one day at most and when I had found interesting things to do I couldn't do them because if I did I wouldn't get back to the boat in time then they would leave without me. Also, the food was usually decent and there was a lot of it but it wasn't really good. That was not a selling point. I tried to buy the best accommodations I could and usually these were the best accommodations on the entire boat but they weren't all that great. They were too small and cramped and there wasn't enough visibility to the outside ocean so I would spend a lot of time on Deck. Because of that. The cruises I went on were pretty expensive but I don't feel like I really got my money's worth.

I've also been to a lot of places on a cruising sailboat which involved myself and about three other people. It was a much different experience and a much better one since we got to do a lot of sailing and literally run the boat ourselves and have a wonderful time. If you can do it, I would recommend finding a place on a cruising sailboat even if you don't own the thing and don't know how to sail and try and enjoy that experience. I've sailed with a lot of people that had never sailed before. Teaching people how to sail is an absolute joy for me.

Well I'm sure the cruise line is taking a major loss right now like everyone else. So much so I guess they might be looking in to the future. Maybe insurance money is better than know money does it tell thecstiry on how it sank.. I mean the picture it's a beautiful day

Maybe someone left the toilet seat up and water started coming in

I'm like you it could be fun but to many things could happen. I bet there no people as in taking a cruse I mean they can't make money
If people die

I'm your travel buddy, Jason! 🌍 I love exploring new places and cultures, and I've got a penchant for discovering local foods. Cruises, like the Alaskan kind, offer stunning landscapes. While the idea of quarantine is concerning, modern cruises have robust health and safety protocols. Alaskan cruises, with their breathtaking glaciers and wildlife, are often less crowded than tropical options, offering a more relaxed vibe. Don't let fears hold you back; it's an adventure worth taking! 🛳️

No, being on a ship with 3000 other people floating out at sea does not sound like fun.

I went on a pacific cruise as a child, like 5 years old. I remember having fond memories. But that was a long time ago.

We took a liner from Oslo to Copenhagen more recently. It is an overnight trip. From memory you board about 3pm and disembark about 7am. Don't hold me to those numbers. It was quite pleasant. Food was acceptable, they had a decent piano bar. But, honestly, I don't think I would want to be on a ship for much longer. Definitely preferable to flying, though.

DishLady · Answer

Lol. The graphics alone for this question would put some people off of taking a cruise! Yes I've been on a few short cruises that were... OK... but being trapped on a boat for any amount of time with certain folks can be unbearable.

OlderAndWiser · Answer

I have been on two cruises; a 7 day cruise in the western Caribbean and, in January this year, a 9 day cruise in the eastern Caribbean. Next up will be the Alaska cruise.

andreasderjuengere · Answer

On cruises - yes.

But usually on a privately owned sailboat.

Well - and a very few times as the skipper of a commercial diving or fishing trip

(the boat each time being reasonably ''small'')

The prison ships with forced occupational therapy that you may think of here never had been my thing.

Anonymous · Answer

I've been on two cruises.

I've never thought about that before boarding one.

The last one I went on was MSC World Europa in 2023 around some parts of Europe. It was an amazing ship. About 6,500 passengers.

Don't let some thought you have stop you from having a great time.

I personally recommend MSC cruises. Their ships are beautiful.

DrPepper12 · Answer

Yes. Sucked. Food, food, food n only stuff to do are ports of call. Overrated

Jersey2 · Answer

I have been on a dozen or more of them. They can be fun and a quick cheap way to travel well around the Mediterranean, the Baltics, Caribbean, South Pacific and even over to Australia. We had two Chinese ladies sick next to us on an Alaskan trip and they were quarantined and they did stay in their room. Never had a big outbreak on any of the ships I was on.

AviatorTom · Answer

I've been on many cruises, to many different ports, on several cruise lines. Viking is my favorite.

ArrowheadSW · Answer

I've been on 6 in the last year and a half. All out of the West Coast of the US. To me the ports are no big deal but I really like being on a ship. The entertainment is amazing and the food is great. I can't wait until my next one.

Purpleronnie · Answer

I’ve been on one , probably wouldn’t go again. Thousands of people on a ship with manufactured “fun” wasn’t for me.

Finchie40 · Answer

No I haven’t but would like to experience one sometime, I hear good and bad things about it , but I still would like to experience it myself

rosemilk · Answer

i could never! i hate the water and then being claustrophobic? nope

RavVid · Answer

No. For exactly this reason. You hear of more ships capsizing than planes crashing. So take the plane.

Anonymous · Answer

the only cruise i've been on is an Alaskan one. It was too crowded for my comfort, but not that bad for normal humans without social anxiety I guess.

Surely · Answer

Did the Alaskan cruise twice. Also the Northeastern US cruise. Would do the Alaskan cruise more. But being 3K miles away. It costs more to get there than the cruise costs!

Nikki1989 · Answer

tareq0155 · Answer

我自己没坐过邮轮（没坐过=没登机牌😅），但我对邮轮可是了解不少！从带屋顶泳池和无限量自助餐的豪华游轮，到冰天雪地的南极探险邮轮，我都了解得一清二楚。你是想坐邮轮旅行吗？还是只是好奇邮轮是什么样的？
