The Meaning Of Cruise Ship.
A cruise ship or cruise liner is a
passenger ship used for pleasure voyages,
where the voyage itself and the ship's
amenities are part of the experience, as well
as the different destinations along the way.

The History Of Cruise Ships
Early years
The first vessel built exclusively for this purpose was the Prinzessin Victoria Luise, designed by
Albert Ballin, general manager of Hamburg-America Line. The ship was completed in 1900.
Jet age
With the advent of large passenger jet aircraft in the 1960s, intercontinental travelers
largely switched from ships to planes, sending the ocean liner trade into a slow decline.
Ocean liner services aimed at passengers ceased in 1986, with the notable exception of
transatlantic crossings operated by the Cunard Line, catering to the niche market who
enjoy the few days of luxury and enforced idleness that a liner voyage affords.
Amenities
Until 1975-1980, cruises offered shuffleboard, deck chairs, "drinks with umbrellas and little
else for a few hundred passengers." After 1980, they offered increasing amenities. As of 2010,
city-sized ships have dozens of amenities.
Modern days
The 1970s television show The Love Boat, featuring Princess Cruises' since-sold ship
Pacific Princess, did much to raise awareness of cruises as a vacation option for ordinary
people in the United States. Initially, this growth was centered around the Caribbean,
Alaska, and Mexico, but now encompasses all areas of the globe. Today, several hundred
large cruise ships ply routes worldwide, with plans for larger vessels.
The Organization In Cruise Ships.
Cruise ships are organized much like floating
hotels, with a complete hospitality staff in
addition to the usual ship's crew. It is not
uncommon for the most luxurious ships to
have more crew and staff than passengers.
Dining
Dining on almost all cruise ships is included
in the cruise price, except on EasyCruise and
Cruiseferry. Traditionally, the ships'
restaurants organize two dinner services per
day and passengers are allocated a set dining
time for the entire cruise, but a recent trend
is to allow diners to dine whenever they want.
Regional industries.
The number of cruise tourists worldwide in 2005 was estimated at
some 14 million. The main region for cruising was North America
(70% of cruises), where the Caribbean islands were the most
popular destinations.
