Creator's Key Takeaways
It's not smooth sailing, especially on the North Atlantic.
I've done all four maiden transatlantic crossings starting in 2004 with Queen Mary 2 then Queen Victoria then Queen Elizabeth and most recently in uh January on Queen Anne
I find that I am at my most zen and most happy when I am on a transatlantic crossing without the internet.
It's a no-brainer as far as I'm concerned.

Everyone thinks a Transatlantic Crossing is just a long cruise. They are WRONG. In this video, we explain the key difference that changes everything: from the ship's design (ocean liner vs. cruise ship) to the onboard atmosphere, price, and even the route. It's not a cruise; it's a CROSSING. β Uploaded from the Celebrity Edge at sea off Cairns, Australia. β π³οΈ Subscribe to Chris' Substack: https://themaritimehistorian.substack.com π’ Read Chris' Cunard History Website: https://www.chriscunard.com π Browse Chris' Books: https://www.chrisframe.com.au/books π Support the channel at our Cruise Merch store: https://chrisframeofficial.teemill.com β Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgk7SzYDkiXWWBfMqXYH0cA/join -- πΊοΈ CUSTOM CRUISE MAP: Made using AIS (satellite ship-tracking) data, The Cruise Maps show the exact route.
