I don't think cruise ships are really that big of a target.

The economic impact of losing a cruise ship is nothing.

I'd think sinking a massive oil tanker off of California or Alaska would be a higher threat risk.

Worse would be running into a tanker that is docked off of LA Harbor... you could really screw up the oil prices in our nation if the idiots did that.

I cancelled a cruise last yr.because all I worried about was a terrorist "passenger" or "crew" infecting the food with some sort of bioterror that could be taken back upon disembarkment to spread in different areas of the country. When you have 3000 passengers on board from all over the country the damage that could be done is mind boggling.

In my mind it is a BIG target

The economic impact of losing a cruise ship is nothing.

But the psychological impact of a cruise ship attack would be HUGE. It would make people averse to taking cruises for quite some time.
