Are there any good statistics on how long cruises typically last? Does it vary by destination? -- Beland (talk) 03:29, 22 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Length of cruise varies a lot based on a number of factors. Most cruises I say last in between three to seven days, but I don't know anywhere that would provide hard statistics on that. SpiritedMichelle (talk) 19:27, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oldest cruise line

Cunard Line was started in 1840, four years before P&O Cruises. 2600:1700:E381:6AA0:B874:8704:FDEE:900C (talk) 13:38, 14 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

40% of energy for hotel load?

I don't believe this: "Cruise ships may use 60 percent of the fuel energy for propulsion, and 40 percent for hotel functions". Here is a source that says 20%, which I find more believable: [1] GA-RT-22 (talk) 15:53, 30 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Environmental impact on cruise ships: these are passengers who voluntarily emit high levels of foul stenches on a daily and hourly basis for many years. 49.180.189.15 (talk) 22:14, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

-== Discrepancy on linked pages ==
+== 40% of energy for hotel load? ==
-Under the "Operators and cruise lines" section, it mentions that Star Cruise Line owns 50% of Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL). ["Currently the five largest cruise line holding companies and operators in the world are Carnival Corporation & plc, Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., Star Cruises (which owns 50% of Norwegian Cruise Line; NCL in its own right is the third largest line)..."]

-However, on the Star Cruise Line page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Cruises), it says they own 28% of NCL.

-== Good source ==
-Although it's opinionated, lots of good information - and discussions about things where the Wikipedia article clearly should be expanded: https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2020/06/cruise-control/ - -- <span style="font-family:Brush Script MT; font-size:15px;">[[User:John Broughton|John Broughton]] </span>  [[User talk:John Broughton |(♫♫)]] 22:55, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
-== Do cruise ships really have a safe filled with weapons on board?  ==
-In the article it says "cruise ships have small arms (usually semi-automatic pistols) stored in a safe accessible only by the captain who distributes them to authorized personnel such as security or the master-at-arms." I did a quick google search and according to that cruise ships other than those from Italy do not carry weapons.  <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Shipmaster747747|Shipmaster747747]] ([[User talk:Shipmaster747747#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Shipmaster747747|contribs]]) 03:41, 26 July 2020 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
-== 2020 changes to the Industry ==
-Shouldn't this article by now reflect the SIGNIFICANT number of ships that were retired and sold of for scrapping last year due to the income loss forced upon cruise lines by the Corona restrictions all over the world?
-https://www.cruisehive.com/which-cruise-ships-are-being-scrapped-or-sold-due-to-the-covid-10-pandemic/40597 for example mentions over a dozen different vessels, while two dozen more change hands to other lines.
-Seems such an important interruption in service and reduction of worldwide capacity should be mentioned in the general article about the ships. --[[Special:Contributions/84.118.56.218|84.118.56.218]] ([[User talk:84.118.56.218|talk]]) 00:32, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

-== Norovirus section ==
-I have added a ''Dubious'' claim to some of the information presented in the Norovirus section. I'm not quite sure if the math is correct, and using only the CDC as a reference makes me wonder about if it makes the article too American-centric.

-== Origins ==
-There's a mixup in [[Cruise ship#Origins|Origins]] about P&O being first...
- [[P&O Cruises|P&O]] first introduced passenger-cruising services in 1844, advertising sea tours to destinations such as [[Gibraltar]], Malta and Athens, sailing from [[Southampton]].
-*current link is to P&O Cruises, which didn't exist till about 1977, when restructuring of P&O into several entities was done, instead to parent P&O (company)
-*P&O Cruises ''is'' one of successors, and inheritor of cruising tradition of the parent company that did that cruise in 19. century, but it is not the same one
-*it seems original P&O was called Peninsular and Oriental Steamship Company in 1844; I'd like to see when P&O actually got in use (but that is for the P&O (company) article)
-Current contents of this article reads as if a company not existing before around 1977 made business in 1844, which would make smart 12 years olds laugh maddly, and dismiss Wikipedia as serious source of info when laughing fit settles.
-I propose change of link from P&O (which currently means P&O Cruises) to P&O (company) at first, e.g.
- [[P&O (company)|P&O]] first introduced passenger-cruising services in 1844, advertising sea tours to destinations such as [[Gibraltar]], Malta and Athens, sailing from [[Southampton]]
-Later a section (or permanent link) to the part of that article with historically correct name could be created in that article and link changed to show there. I'll probably do the first change in a week or two, if nobody disagrees here. --[[User:Marjan Tomki SI|Marjan Tomki SI]] ([[User talk:Marjan Tomki SI|talk]]) 08:48, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
