Thanks, ESAD.

Sooner or later the word will be on the streets about Carnival. Disney will
probably raise their
prices. Damn shame, but a cruise on the Disney Magic across the ocean to
Barcelona will still be
worth it. Disney must be about the only cruise line that uses ocean liners.
Nice!

The Disney ships are not ocean liners. They are cruise ships decked out as
ocean liners. The only true liner is service today is Queen Mary 2,
currently in New Zealand. She's the only one that braves winter North
Atlantic.


Why would anyone want to do a repeat of the Titanic adventure? If I had
the choice of going on an ocean voyage I sure as hell wouldn't pick
crossing the North Atlantic when I could float around the Caribbean.

Hopefully the cruise liners will fare better than the ocean liners.
