Sure, economy of scale should prevail and hotels should be cheaper. But they aren't.

For C19 unsure what's better. Cramped place or randomly distributed. I hear cruise ships are not very popular at the moment.

Empty hotels have the same CPVID19 effect as empty AirBNBs.

In fact, empty hotels are serving very important roles right now around the world housing homeless and quarantined people and travelers.

Finally there is no comparison between a hote and a cruise ship. Travelers in hotels, much like Airbnbs, are all back at their homes. The problem with cruise ships is that they cannot easily get back to wherever they’re from.
