The myth behind luxury cruises
It is undeniable that luxury cruises have loyal fans and hateful enemies. What is fascinating though is that from the ones who claim they don’t like them, not many have actually tried to experience one. Many claim that luxury cruises are obsolete and they appeal just to old people just because it all started in the early days of the 20th century. The Britannic and Titanic are two of the big names but mainly because they were sunk. It is a fact that many luxurious boats ended up in the depths of the oceans tragically.
All of us were amazed by the story of the Titanic, especially after watching any out of the many films about that dreamboat that was supposed to be unsinkable. My aunties who were living in the US, were coming to Europe every year on a cruise boat, not because it they were cheap but because they were afraid of planes. I still remember them telling me about the fun and excitement they were having on board on their way from New York to Southampton.
The romance, is a large part of the reason that luxury cruises appeal to so many people. Hollywood with all those romance films shot on luxurious cruise boats has definitely contributed to the myth. I was never realistic about participating in any of those five star cruises my aunties were so enthusiastic about. They seemed so happy each time they were talking about those unforgettable Silversea cruises or about some Oceania cruises that it became one of my dreams into the child’s mind.
It all changed though after my wife won a pair of tickets for a luxury cruise in a competition and I was forced to join her. It didn’t stop there though and since then I’ve been in a cruise 3 more times.
