Creator's Key Takeaways
Let's talk about the absurdity of thinking you're going to have a relaxing vacation on a ship with 7,000 of your nearest strangers.
Increasingly more and more, ships are becoming sort of the destination in itself.
For me, on most of these ships, that pain point, that friction, is in the restaurant for main dining.
It's a huge trade-off. You pay a lot more. Yes, you get a lot more, but it's a totally different vacation.

GROUP CRUISE INTEREST FORM: https://forms.gle/SHVZyxdN1ZpvQeQi9 Would you vacation on a cruise ship with nearly 7,000 other people? Tonight, we’re talking about the rapid rise of the mega cruise ship. I’ve sailed on three of the biggest examples—Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas, MSC World America, and Carnival Jubilee—and I’ll share whether they actually felt overcrowded, where the crowds were most noticeable, and which ship handled its passenger count best. We’ll also look at what’s coming next, including Legend of the Seas, MSC World Atlantic, Carnival’s enormous new Ace Class, and the growing number of mega ships already on order. Cruisers often say they want smaller ships, fewer crowds, and a more relaxing vacation—but these massive new ships keep selling. Are cruise lines giving passengers what they truly want, or are ships finally becoming too big? Join the conversation and tell me: Would 7,000 passengers stop you from booking a cruise? 🌐 Midships: https://www.midshipscruise.com 🚢 Cruise deals: https://www.midshipscruise.com/deals 🛒 Cruise essentials: https://www.amazon.com/shop/midships 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/midshipscruise 👥 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/midships Some links may earn Midships a commission at no additional cost to you. #CruiseShips #IconOfTheSeas #MSCWorldAmerica #CarnivalJubilee #CruiseNews #MidshipsLive
