This insider documentary is about the world’s largest cruise ship…it looks spectacular inside..
Wonder how many GNs have experienced this type of cruise and would you it?

Personally I can’t excited about any cruise ship with thousands of people and wonder how I would feel if I fell sick on board

Am an air traveller in the past but don’t feel comfortable booking cruises…

Any positive thoughts ?

Sorry no. This would be a nightmare for me.

Whilst I’ve been on one cruise, to me this ship looks utterly horrendous!

Some of these cruise ships are so huge, they must be environmentally damaging to where they dock

I think the fact that there have been contagious outbreaks on them where all the passengers are cooped up and quarantined on the ship in what can sometimes be dire circumstances is somewhat off putting. Having said that, some of the destinations look great. I haven't been on a cruise because my husband couldn't get the ferry across the channel without being sick, he was mighty pleased when the channel tunnel opened. He's ok on a river and would consider a river cruise, they also go to some interesting places, but we haven't done anything about organising anything along those lines.
