The cruise world is currently awash with news on the biggest mega ships. With thousands of passengers, mall-like shopping arcades, Broadway-style shows, and more restaurants than there are days of the week, these ships are like floating cities -- some even have their own zip codes. But while they offer something for just about every resort-lover, just try going off the beaten path when you're carrying more than 3,000 passengers. Take a big-ship cruise, and you'll probably have to "tender" (a cruising term for taking shuttle boats in from the harbor) at ports where the ship is too big to dock. |
