CRUISE SHIP

A cruise ship or cruise liner is a passenger

ship used for pleasure voyages, where the

voyage itself and the ship's amenities are a

part of the experience, as well as the differentdestinations along the way. Transportation is

not the prime purpose, as cruise ships operate

mostly on routes that return passengers to

their originating port, so the ports of call are

usually in a specified region of a continent.

There are even "cruises to nowhere" or

"nowhere voyages" where the ship makes 2–

night round trips without any ports of call.
