We spent a weekend on the most futuristic cruise ship out there, Quantum of the Seas. There are robot bartenders, a skydiving simulator, bumper cars, trapezes, an ice skating rink, and the North Star, which lifts you 300 feet above sea level to give you a view of the sea and the ship you've never seen before.

If you go on a really long cruise, with multiple days on the ocean, sometimes you just want to reach for the familiar. Other times, like say if your near the tail end of a long trip, you've done most of the stuff on the ship.

Connectivity is one of the reasons many people avoid going on cruises. Wifi is almost always offered in resorts, it's something the cruise industry really needs if it wants to capture a younger audience. As to your argument regarding people playing Xbox while on vacation, a lot of resorts offer entertainment lounges that have consoles as well. In my experience, people are more likely to play video games at resorts than on cruises.

Expect to spend about 1500 on the cruise itself, then you have transport to the ship and back to home. So usually you wanna add about 500-800 on travel, fees, and basic needs when factoring it in. You can do a two week cruise for like 2.5k or a single week for about 1.5-1.7k. Really not bad.

The Titanic is an ocean liner built to sail across a stormy and wavy ocean at more that 30 knots, a cruise ship, like the Quantum, is built to cruise through a calm and warm sea with occasional rough seas at no more than 23 knots. The Titanic was not at all technologically advanced, she was not the fastest or the most efficient, she was just happened to be the largest passenger ship built at the time.

I am the biggest fan of cruises, they are THE BEST vacation time ever, and i have been to ALOT of places, but rather than going to the grand canyon again or niagra falls again or hawaii again, i keep going on cruises again. 7 times, 2 more times this summer! If you havent gone on one before, your missing out. It is a must

I absolutely do love them pushing the limits in what you can put on a ship but it would be a much more powerful video for the Quantum of the Seas if they showed what technological advancements they've made in the Emergency department. Such as when all those fancy electronics don't work cause the ship suddenly went dead in the water. How fast can you get everyone off? Did you create some hidden chambers with speedboats? In other words, what new technology comes into play when shit hits the fan? I would be a lot more willing to buy a ticket if I knew.

Typing this out from this cruise ship right now! It's actually not THAT expensive considering food and a place to stay is included. We've been on numerous cruises and I can say being connected is awesome. Fast enough to stream KZbin in HD. Our cruise is about 3 weeks through Europe. There's a lot to do on the ship and excited for some of the excursions. For people saying that this isn't traveling, I would say to each his own. I personally don't think you can soak up a country's culture unless you live there for over a month. A few days won't cut it either. Personally I enjoy being able to work when I feel like it and just relax when I feel like doing that. Lots of options here. Lots of old people though. We need some younger people. My wife and I are the only ones besides staff that are 20-30 years old. :-)

I volunteer on a small 126 ft steam vessel. Everything important on it works without electricity. You'd have no lights, no communications and no refrigeration, but the whole propulsion system and steering gear is all steam driven so it would be the only thing on the water that starts and runs without electricity and computers. You'd even have running water and flushing toilets, hot showers without electricity. The generator is actually powered by a steam engine which wouldn't give a toss about an EMP I just don't know if the control circuit for the alternator would still work after an EMP.

About the future?? Are you kidding me? Why because it has robot bartenders? How ling before those break down?? Computer operated. Wont be long! Dogem Cars? Same thing. TV screens that move like the robots? Again how long before all this stuff breaks down. Its going to cost them more money to keep this ship afloat! Also the Skydiving? You dont see a Carnival theme here? Hmmmmm....maybe you should go to your County Fair and get back to me. But Thanks for playing!
@button4boy

Dude, seriously... what? Yes... the future. Robot bar tenders aren't exactly commonplace are they. Neither is a sky crane above the boat, or skydiving at sea. Sure they probably will break down from time to time, but then so do trains, and cars, and rollercoasters, and vending machines. ANYTHING that has been engineered is likely to break down at some point. And no, it won't cost them "more money to keep this ship afloat" because if one thing does breakdown, hey they get an engineer in to fix it. What the hell is your problem? What the fuck county fairs do you have where you can skydive? Again, and I think everyone will agree with me here... the focus is on futuristic stuff: HD moving screens and projections, innovations, robots, sleekness, energy efficient etc. Hence "Quantum". If the boat was all glittery, and red and white, and had merry go rounds and helter skelters all over the place, then sure... call it a fucking carnival ship.

@52rhflight56
@52rhflight56 7 жыл бұрын
The Grump 101 Negative. It is not where the ship sails from, nor is it where the owner of ship resides. The laws that apply in international waters depend only on the registry of the vessel. A ship can be registered in a country and never see a port in that country. That is why most commercial ships sail under "flags of convenience" such as Panama, Liberia, Marshall Islands, Malta, etc. It is important to note that a particular cruise line (notably Carnival) may choose to register its ships in different countries, so the laws will be different depending on which ship you choose. Around 90% of all commercial marine vessels, including passenger ships, calling on US ports are under foreign flags. There's only one big sea cruise ship registered in USA - MS Pride of America, sailing solely out of Hawaii. However, it is not the laws of the country of registry that you need to worry about. It is the cruise ship contract. Different cruise lines will stipulate minimum drinking age as a matter of corporate policy, setting more restrictive drinking ages than necessary limited by law. For example, Carnival cruise lines operates ships registered in Panama (drinking age 18) and Bahamas (drinking age 18), but the Carnival cruise line corporate policy stipulates that only passengers above the age of 21 may drink alcoholic beverages while on board. The majority of the large cruise lines have set the drinking age at 21, although there are a few exceptions. The flags of convenience are not chosen to best serve the customer, they are chosen to maximize corporate profits and minimize corporate liability.

Still wouldn't go. As part of this "younger generation" that they're trying to capture no amount of connectivity is going to make me go on a cruise. There's some interesting technology on board but it's still touristy as hell and would still be full of old people. This is not a good way to travel. Where's the sense of discovery and exploration? Where are the risks, the last moment decisions that dramatically alter your experience? The amazing people (who are out there in the world, not on cruise ships) who expand your mind and widen your perspective of the world?

Diego Jorge That's still not good enough honestly. When I've travelled around on my own you see the cruise ships come in during the morning and leave before sunset. That's such an artificial, generic and cookie cutter way to travel, where you're basically a sheep following a shepherd ("You only have X time before you have to come back), rather than an independent human being forging their own path. I know no one is making me go on a cruise, but the fact that they're trying to target my age group is why I'm voicing my opinion.
