- Where else do you take what's essentially a skyscraper on its side, drop 5,000 people onto it and sail it around hundreds miles all to do it again just days later. But that's just the start...
Apart from just the size, there are some crazy things to know about cruising, from the scheduling to the design of ships to spots you'll never see. I round up some of what I think is craziest about cruising to give you a peek behind the curtain that you may not know.

At 10:05, don't overlook the difference between statute miles per hour and knots. Ships and airplanes use nautical miles per hour (or knots) to measure speed, and that's about 1.15 times faster than ground speed or statute miles per hour. So if a ship is cruising at 25 knots, that's almost 30 mph on land. Oh, and a bit of trivia, because the QM2 is built as an ocean liner, she regularly cruises at 30 knots and up to 33 or 35 knots--a good bit faster than regular cruise ships.
Interesting addition. Thanks for sharing
So the fastest I've seen a cruise ship sail is around 21 knots.
@@Cruzelycom That sounds about right, with the singular exception of the QM2 who regularly sails a bit faster.
I went down into the area where the ropes that tie the ship to the pier are stored while sailing on Carnival Celebration. It was really astonishing! I really did not realize the sheer size of those tie lines. It was really cool to see!
Your channel is my favorite cruising channel. Thank you for the great content.
Thanks for the compliment!
If you have ever had a cruise ship go past you at full speed, it truly is impressive how fast they move. Especially if you encounter one at night with it all lit up. It truly is something to see if you do get the chance.
Thank you for the enjoyable and informative video!
That number 7 triggered my OCD hard with the tile not pushed in at the bottom. 😆
Excellent and informative video
Great video but when we were on the Princess cruise last fall to Alaska from Seattle, we had a great tour. We went to a morning presentation by the staff of how things work, and then we were invited to take a walking tour of the Ships kitchen. It was absolutely educational and very informative. We met some of the people that worked at the dining room where we had dinners and we saw where those dinners were produced and how they manage inventory and walk-in refrigerators. When we’re on board, we take any ship tour we can. If I had taken pictures, I would’ve forward them to you.
I love cruising !!❤
I really enjoyed this! It was unique and well presented. Keep up the good work!😊
great video thanks
My first cruise was in 1983 on the Carnival Carnivale. It had 900 passengers
awesome video, i really enjoyed it:)
I work at Walmart and all I do is sit around and monitor camera feed so there very well might be!
If those maps went back another 20-25 years, I might be all in.
Anyone have any recommendations for an affordable hotel near the port of Miami?
We are sailing on the NCL Bliss in mid June for our 30th anniversary. Exactly 30 years ago we took our first cruise on the Carnival Ecstasy which we thought was big then. That thing would serve as a tugboat for the Bliss. Great video here. I also liked a previuos video you did on how to have a great time on a cruise. I’ve watched a ton of TH-cam videos on cruising in the last two months and there are so many bad reviews about NCL on how they nickel and dime you to death. You mentioned that on NCL, if you don’t want something, you don’t have to pay for it. If you do want something that you have to pay for, just be ready for that before you cruise and you’ll have a much better time. Thank you for that.
Our first cruise after the pandemic was from Barcelona to Copenhagen, the ship was about half full and only $200 per person for 12 days. Great experience!
Am subscribed and even hit the like button. Won't go back on RCCL. Some things were new to me.
Trying to imagine what would make a person not respect a "crew only" sign. Crazy indeed.
Hey, Tanner have you ever taken a cruise on Cunard Line?
Never on Cunard! As far as ships that sail North America, Cunard and Holland America are the only holes in my resume. Carnival, Royal, NCL, MSC, Princess, Celebrity, Virgin -- done them all. You inviting me?
Nope some rooms have exclusive restaurants
Those huge 7000 ships are way to large for me to be comfortable with
Best video on yr
I have had jobs with staff who hated other workers because of their religion, sexual orientation, and ethnicity. I can't imagine how much effort it takes to discipline a staff of people who are taught to segregate based on their country.
Showing a pool table was disingenuous. Even older ships without stabilators have had them. The tables themselves are gyro-stabilized. Also, with the cruise occupancy rate, they are starting to get a black eye with overbooking and waiting to tell people about AFTER they've traveled THOUSANDS of miles to be there.
