>>hose big new ships have 5-6,000 passengers...<<
I should have remembered that — heck I was in Puerto Rico at the Marriott at the dock in San Jose back in 2018 so I saw the Splendor and Oasis from my window all the time.
How long before they start doing 10K or even 20K ships? maybe the lines will learn a lesson from all this.
I did one on Oasis towards end of 2019. I love that ship. Least crowded ship with 6000 passengers. There are open spaces galore including a forest preserve in middle of ship where birds are living permanently.
