Introduction:
Cruise ships are one of the means of transport specially used by the postal department to transport mail, and they also transport passengers, but general cruise ships are for sightseeing purposes. Because in the early days of postal services, intercontinental postal services relied on postal ships to deliver letters and packages from one coast to the other. These British ships often had to fly the signal flag of the Royal Mail. After 1850, the Royal Mail allowed private shipping companies to help them carry letters and parcels on a contract basis. This transformation has transformed some passenger ocean-carrying ships that were originally owned by passenger shipping companies into passenger-carrying ocean mail ships flying signal flags. This is how the term "ocean cruise" was born.
However, due to the later emergence of jet civil aviation, ocean liner gradually lost its function of carrying passengers and cargo and its competitiveness; the role of ocean liner also evolved from a cruise ship to a cruise ship only for pleasure. So strictly speaking, some of the current recreational cruises with long or short journeys can only be called cruise ships, not cruise ships, because they have lost their function of carrying letters and packages.
Different from ocean cruise ships, cruise ships usually do not cross the ocean, but travel in the most common circle. The starting and ending ports are usually the same port, and the journey is usually shorter, as little as 1 to 2 days, up to 1 to 2 weeks. Cruise tourism has become an important part of the international tourism industry, with the total number of passengers carried worldwide in 2006 reaching millions.
Modern cruise ships are tourist-oriented, just like mobile hotels. There are all kinds of entertainment facilities on board, making it a tourist destination. This industry is currently large-scale in Europe and the United States, with 300 to 400 cruise ships, taking a large number of tourists every day to sail to more than 100 countries and regions in the world, including the Caribbean, Bahamas, Bermuda, Alaska, Hawaii, the Gulf of Mexico, the Mediterranean, and Northern Europe.
According to the size of the cruise ship, cruise ships can be divided into large cruise ships, medium-sized cruise ships and small cruise ships. Large cruise ships generally carry more than 2,000 passengers, medium-sized cruise ships generally carry 1,000 to 2,000 passengers, and small cruise ships generally carry less than 1,000 passengers. According to the waters where cruise ships sail, cruise ships can be divided into ocean cruise ships, near-ocean cruise ships and inland river cruise ships. Ocean cruises generally have a longer voyage, with a sailing period of about 10 to 15 days, or even longer; ocean cruises and river cruises have a shorter voyage, with a sailing period of about 7 days or less.
