As I write this, Royal Carribean cruise lines is building a vessels that, when complete, will be the size of the Queen Elizabeth and QEII combined. That ship is called "Oasis Of The Seas" and at $1.24 billion is the largest and most expensive vehicle of its kind, if not of any kind, ever made. According to WallStreetFighter, Genesis will be 1,180 feet long, 220,000 tons and able to carry 6,400 passengers and 2,100 crew members. All I can say is "wow. The ship is divided into neighborhoods such that "Central Park" is the main middle "place to be" with luxury restaurants and shops.

Largest Cruise Ship In The World Under Construction (pics)
2008-04-30 04:29:00
The world's largest cruise ship is under construction in Finland right now. My brother-in-law has been over to work on it a number of times and every time he shows us some pictures, but he is not allowed to give them out. Royal Caribbean, who is building the cruise ships, has finally released photos of its construction. The project is called Genesis and you can read more about it on the Genesis Wikipedia article. It is rather impressive as it will hold over 25% more passengers and has over 53% more gross tonnage than the Freedom of the Seas, in the current class of largest cruise ships (also owned by Royal Caribbean). Anyhow, there are a few pictures below, but you can check out the Royal Caribbean Genesis Gallery and the Genesis Renderings for more.

Cruise Ship Virus - Danger At High Sea?
2007-12-25 23:45:00
Cruise Ship Virus - Danger At High Sea?"On the last night/morning, many people were stricken with a gastrointestinal illness that caused diarrhea and vomiting. A great deal of vomit was on the stairs, elevator and other public areas by Friday morning." So a passenger from Canada, on December 30, 2005, sailing on the Zuiderdam in the Holland America Line, reported to the website cruisejunkie.com. Norovirus is a highly contagious gastrointestinal virus where the potential for someone who is sick to infect others exists from the moment they become sick, to at least 3 days after they get better. Disturbingly, some people remain contagious for up to 2 weeks after recovering. This may be a factor in successive cruises becoming infected. And it remains questionable whether sick passengers and crew are confined to their cabins for 3 days after they get better. Whilst norovirus outbreaks are by no means confined to cruise ships, the nature of a cruise increases the likelihood of an infecti...

Queen Mary 2 Best Luxury Cruise Ship
2007-12-21 16:03:00
Queen Mary 2 has just been named the world’s “Best Luxury Cruise Ship” by the editors of Travel Weekly, the national newspaper of the travel industry, at its fifth annual Readers Choice Awards black-tie gala at the Pierre Hotel in New York. The award represents a synopsis of some 40,000 reader’s opinions about the Queen Mary 2 and Cunard Line. Their reader base is mainly cruise executives, travel agents and industry wholesalers. I read this with some amusement today after having just read an article by another travel writer about a mutiny on the Queen Mary 2 a while back due to propeller problems causing a few missed ports. At that time, people were angered by this, causing disruptions on-board, sit-ins and mass meetings in theatres and public rooms. It amused me because by these people’s reactions, you might have though Cunard broke the propellers on purpose. It just points out that the electronic media is both a blessing and a curse. Irate p...

Recent Cruise Ship Sinking Could Hurt Industry
2007-11-25 23:15:00
The news of the recent sinking of the MV Explorer, a small cruise ship cruising in the waters off the coast of Antarctica is going to put a damper on bookings for a while for all cruise lines. While how much damage news like this actually does will never be known its fair to say that a number of people will be wary of cruising. Its a shame that disasters have such and effect. This is not the kind of news I like to talk about at all. Luckily all passengers and crew were safely rescued by lifeboat. Its an incident like this that shows why the muster drill that all passengers go through before sailing is so important. For those that have never been on a cruise before, in the United States it is a requirement all passengers have to do regardless of how many times they have been on a cruise. I hear more than my share of people complaining in the middle of the drill how they have done this so many times in the past that they should be exempt. Better yet, the person or group of peo...
