I’ve never seen a sail on a cruise ship. Some of the small cruise ships have sails.
Almost all have less than 250 passengers and have avoided the strict regulations placed on the much large cruise ships that carry thousands of passengers. -Tom

There used to be one but it was more of a technical wing or foil.
But, yes I get it and I can’t really stand journalism when they talk about modern naval ships that sail. Modern naval ships don’t sail, they deploy or they get underway.
So a Cruise liner doesn’t necessarily deploy on a mission, but they do get underway.

I have.
We sailed on the Fantome out of the Bahamas in the 80's.
