The F kind of scam is this? Even prison cells are bigger.

I wondered about that too because it would be something like 4x3 feet. I think that maybe they meant sq meters which is about 139 sq feet, which is something like 10x 14 feet.

My spouse wants to do this as well - we've been looking at Semester at Sea, which takes a number of retired people each cruise. The bonus are the courses you can attend (without exams/papers for the returned people).

I'm the PP you quoted and I actually did SaS in college! It is an option, but definitely not the vibe we would be looking for in retirement. It is a relatively small ship with no "luxury" vibe, and teeming with college kids....
