You've heard of chartering a yacht for vacation, but how about the world's largest cruise ship?

Royal Caribbean's Allure of the Seas will set sail Sunday from Port Everglades on its first charter with nearly 5,400 gay and lesbian passengers. The "world's largest gay cruise" sold out in just three weeks, according to the sponsor, Atlantis Events Inc. of Hollywood, Calif.

Rosie O’Donnell likes these cruises. She made a documentary of one of them which was on Home Box Office in heavy rotation a couple years ago. It was billed as a “family cruise”, and Rosie and her people were shocked that some place in the Caribbean didn’t want the ship to dock there.

Liberals don’t always appreciate that some places in the world just don’t celebrate their diversity the way they are used to here in America.

can't stand him as soon as he is on I switch over. Also if these homosexuals want their privacy then why do they segregate themselves ? Now if a normal couple went on this and was refused then surely that would be discrimination and a lawsuit, mmmmmmmm who needs money? Besides I hope they get more homosexuals with their agenda on that ship and they sail off never to come back

It’s like a floating insane asylum.

Maybe they should cruse over to the Egypt and help the muslim brotherhood out. I hear they have their hands full and could use some extra lefty’s.

To be able to do that on such an exciting ship, it was just something people could not resist," said Atlantis spokesman Steve Roth.

So Do I!!!

never thought of it like that, imagine this massive ship coming into port and the seeing thousands of homosexuals prancing off the ship taking over a small town where other normal tourists are.

sick, maybe they can go to the Antarctica

The cruise ship industry is hurting and gays have a whole bunch of disposable income.

However, I can think on no more of a nightmarish vacation than going on a cruise.

Crabs, STD Warts, HIV, Hepatitis...that ship is big rolling septic take.

Great minds . . . :-)

Just imagine some unknowing honeymoon couple taking a trip on that ship - YIKES!

[Celtic Cross]

My thoughts exactly.

Seriously, the hospitality industry I would expect to show them a good time and a good value for their dollars.
