[quote=Anonymous] I am born and raised UMC and love cruising. Most, but not all, of the stigma is perception. As others have said, there is a range, but assuming you are talking about the vast majority of cruises that fall inbetween Carnival and Regent: It is true that: They are crowded. Lots of people in a confined space. That can feel very cramped for people. They are manufactured experiences- you don't go on a cruise to get an authentic feel for wherever you are traveling to. You can get "small tastes" but for those who like to spend two weeks immersing themselves in another culture on vacation, this ain't it. But I enjoy them because: I love staring at open water, can't get enough. They require no planning, no carrying of money, no nothing. Stress free And now that I have tweens/teens, it keeps them occupied and happy and balances quality family time [/quote]
