Say goodbye to golfing at sea.
Just like hotels adapted to modern times, so have large-scale cruise ships. For example, out with the ball gowns and in with athleisure. Some amenity tweaks have to do with safety (you just can’t have golf balls zipping into the open water), while others fall into environmental conservation (do we really need a ship full of plastic water bottles?). Other changes are simply a response to social cues: people don’t want to don a tux or glittery ball gown at sea, now do they?
If you haven’t cruised in a while, here are things you are not likely to see at sea anymore.
Top Picks for You
I assume the "nothing overboard" policy means that skeet shooting from the fantail is also a no-no. Can you still spit over the rail to see how long it takes to hit the water?
I like the buffet decision for the staff to serve you.
For one, only one person is handling the serving spoon and 2nd people can be so wasteful. Last cruise I was on kids filled 2 tables with plates full of food and took one bite and left..sinful and the parents in the next table saw nothing wrong with that.
