I fail to see the argument of methane emissions. LNG boil-off is used as fuel and excess is re-liqufied by compressors back to the tanks. more problems are from those thousands of bums squirting poo. sewage is treated to required standards, but only when systems are working correctly.

How long before some terrorists decide to target such things.?
On my headstone it will say: Please switch off mobile phones. I'm trying to get some sleep.

I have never understood the appeal of holidaying on even a much smaller one, but this would be a nightmare for me.

I can’t imagine actually being on that, it’s bad enough seeing the picture, besides any environmental damage it causes!

Be grateful of such monuments to human herding madness.
At any moment in time, it ensures that up to 8000 sad individuals are well away from folk such as us.

We've had a couple of Nile cruises on Viking 1 & 2 which were old very small twin ships (boats?) which took about 25 folk on each & ran in convoy to different destinations for daily excursions.
Brilliant holidays mixing guided sightseeing with slowly wandering down the Nile drinking beer & watching things go by with excellent personal service by staff.
We'd go again if things were not so fragile & the boats still existed but alas nothing remains the same.
Excellent food & company each time.

Yes L Austin France,we have often looked at the Douro cruise from Portugal into Spain having seen it on tv.
Same for the Rhine and Rhone, both with small cruise boats, just never got round to it.
As for those stupidly huge monstrosities, one will go under one day.
