Cruise ships are one of the means of transportation specially used by the postal department to transport mail, and they also transport passengers. Generally, cruise ships are for sightseeing purposes.

The starting and ending ports are usually the same port, and the journey is usually shorter, as little as 1 to 2 days, or as long as 1 to 2 weeks.
