Royal Caribbean bringing Central Park replica to ocean

I think this is a fantastic idea. After all these difficulties in mass markets, I think tourists will be excited to see something new and interesting.

And just think, now they can add a new on board game - it's called "Count the bodies floating around the Bahamas". The correct coutner gets a free martini.

They can also have a game where you guess how many passengers will "fall" off the ship and be lost at sea by the end of the voyage...

The winner of that one gets to eat from the buffet that isn't infested with ecoli.

I've been on plenty of cruises and this stunt is just plain stupid and panders to the dorky New Yorkers that moved out because they can't afford to live there.
Nothing worse than a ship full of low rent New Yorkers...

Yes this is a stupid idea. Who wants to go on a Carribean cruise and be constantly reminded of New York City? Just as you said, it is probably a marketing ploy for all of those fat, loud, obnoxious, self-absorbed Yankee-fan losers who moved to Florida and are in the process of ruining this state.

Better not sneeze...they'll throw you overboard! Their so called ship's "doctor" on board is a quack, and they kick off unsuspecting families in the middle of the night for having a baby with a tummyache. NEVER will I travel with this cruise line!

Which cruise line do you like better? I think Royal Caribbean is pretty close to the top as far as cruise ships are concerned.

Its going to be interesting to see it in real life.

That might even make the ship run more economically since that area does not have to be Air Conditioned anymore.

Very cool thought though!

I wish I could say I have a favorite line, but I have never been on a cruise before. I really want to, so I did some on-line customer service searches, and they didn't fare so well...especially after this latest story in the news.

Recommendations?

I recommend Royal Caribbean. Seriously, I've been on half a dozen cruises or more, and I had the best time on that one.

BTW, those opinion polls on the web are only reliable to a small degree. Seldom do people take time out of their day to praise something good.
