I don't think I'm cut out for boat trips over a long distance and long period of time. I'm definitely not a sailor at heart. 😖

But I have always wanted to do one of those overnight transcontinental train rides, like the Orient Express. Or those train trips you can take across Japan!

Yes! Some of the new trains are so luxurious with their own showers attached to the suites. But the prices are extortionate.
Luxury river cruises, like one down the Nile, might be a good compromise

I think I could do a river cruise, that might be interesting.

My friend just did a 3 day Nile River cruise as part of his tour package of Egypt and he loved every minute of it.

I’ve never been on a cruise and don’t think I would like the huge ones with thousands on board. But the Broadway, Star Trek and 80s ones sound like fun.
Can someone report from the furry one?

One my friends told me the gay cruises are just free-for-all orgies. People having sex absolutely everywhere on the ship. He loves them lol

I know someone who’s been on three BSB cruises. Idek what I’d do on one. Like their one concert in my 20s was enough for my inner child. That’s it.

I’ve only been on one cruise ever and it was fun, but mainly because of my friends. If we hadn’t made our own adventures on/off the boat, it would’ve been such a waste of money. I cannot imagine liking anything so much that I’d spend days at sea for it. No thanks!

My ex's commanding officer went on multiple NKOTB cruises. They recognize her now.
I just can't imagine being a celebrity and being stuck on a ship full of fans for days.

Even though I’m sure they have plenty of security, they literally have nowhere to run. That would make me so uneasy if I was a celeb. Ew.

Some of them actually fly into one of the stops and are there only for a day. I know Kristen Chenoweth on the Broadway cruises to Bermuda just flies to Bermuda, boards the ship, performs, then leaves.

i'm sorry, a PARTIAL charter for the furry cruise? that sounds hellacious for the non-furries aboard. i would watch that movie.

Yeah, I highly doubt a furry cruise could sell out 4,000 tickets, so from what I saw it looked like a lot of confused people taking videos.

I would go on it to kink shame and then end up crushing on one of them knowing my luck.

Yeah I'd walk on board smirking and disembark as an ocelot or some shit... I just have the feeling that furries would be more fun.
