rough seas on transatlantic crossings โ€” Choose Cunard ships as they are built sturdy with a double hull and narrow front for Atlantic crossings.
lack of active entertainment like waterslides or game shows โ€” Understand it's a traditional cruise focused on lectures, planetarium shows, and ballroom dancing.
