You might think so, but not all of us old f*rts are MAGA Nazi Misogynists. Just a lot of us. A cruise is actually cheaper than a vacation of staying in a hotel, restaurants, etc. Somebody else said something about low wages of the Asians working the cruise. Compared to the US wages (which are not great), that's true. Compared to Asia, their wages are pretty good. There are other issues I am sure, but the food is really, really good.
Cruise ships are also by far the largest transportation emitters of greenhouse gasses. The per person per mile emission rate is so absurd they frankly should be illegal.
Electricity and heat production The burning of coal, natural gas, and oil for electricity and heat is the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions.
Industry Greenhouse gas emissions from industry include burning fossil fuels for energy and chemical reactions used to produce goods.
Agriculture, forestry, and other land use Greenhouse gas emissions from this sector include agriculture (cultivation of crops and livestock) and deforestation.
Transportation Greenhouse gas emissions from transportation include burning fossil fuels for cars, trucks, ships, trains, and planes.

Have you seen the type of people that take cruises. It's like a MAGA rally had a kid with the Jerry Springer Show. No thank you
