Not true. There is the same percentage of overweight people on cruises as in society. Most people who cruise are athletic seniors who love tours that include lots of walking.
Casino more likely.
If it isn’t good enough for kids it isn’t good enough for me.
We just took an Alaskan cruise.
A few days ago we received an email from the Cruise line that they discovered that a passenger on our had measles.
You know I was told the buffets were a big thing on cruise ships. Dawg and I did not see one single deck shuffleboard, that’s what I’d wanna do on a cruise while watching the waves.
which is why people don'the want to have children As much Anymore...children are a nusince,inconvenient.
i'do rather spend time with kids ..exciting and energetic and fun loving get kids then with a bunch of smell the olfactory farts who talk about their gout and their bladder leakage and their skin cancer on their faces.
we either accept and rejoice in children or we don't....
A Democrat.
Same here.
I want to relax and enjoy some peace and quiet if I vacation.
Loud noise, big crowds, out of control brats I don’t want around.
I have heard nothing but good things about Alaskan cruises until now.
Oh well.
Why would I want to sail on a ship that would have somebody like me as a passenger?
Tip of the hat to Groucho.
it’s a good idea. Adults should be able to spend time without children, period.
there are many family cruise ships out there.
then knock yourself out, cherry. Go spend tomorrow at a Chuck E Cheese.
Nothing wrong with adults having time without children. I had 2 little girls and gasp! sometimes i wanted to amongst adults for a few hours. Maybe even days.
Especially when they have their faces glued to an iPhag screen all the time.
When we could cajole our parents, trade with other parents, or actually afford overnight sitters, the last thing we desired was listening to other people’s kiddies.
While I adore families and kiddies, especially when well behaved, fewer fit that category today.
Even at very expensive restaurants, late into the evening, kids have the run of the place!
I really don’t envy the wait staff, who have to dodge and weave, carrying large trays of hot plates and when cleaning up the table areas, it looks like pigs were slopped rather than human beings. Of course, some adults’ table areas are just as bad, so that only adds to the once fine dining experience, a thing of the past.
If I now want to spend my precious dollars without the little ones, I’m happy to find a company that would cater to my desire and should I desire the company of families with children, I know where to find them.
Now if I could only find a cruise line that excluded boorish “adults” that have yet to grow up!
learned all i ever needed to know about kids on cruises the first night at dinner as we were assigned first seating, WHAT A ZOO!!!
soon as we finished we changed to second seating, very few/almost no kids...
what a difference
Wall-E bump. Really interesting movie. Almost like several movies in a movie.
I certainly don’t.
A cruise without children and rude, impolite, teens would be great.
Mr. Inspectorette and I took the Viking Paris to Normandy cruise in 2012. It was the experience of a lifetime, particularly visiting the solemnity of Omaha Beach. The entire cruise was steeped in history, but definitely not geared to kids.
