Why do people comment on HN? Different strokes for different folks.

But basically you get to see a bunch of destinations while all your travel is organized for you, you never have to switch rooms and constantly pack/unpack, and the actual travel part is infinitely more comfortable.

A room and sundeck and pool beats a plane seat or train seat any day.

I'm not into cruises myself, but the appeal seems pretty understandable in terms of convenience.

Downside is you don’t see that much - you get 4-6 hours each day in some city and are offered incredibly expensive day tours (kinda worth it because you have so little time).
