I once took a ferry from Alaska to Washington. 4 days in open ocean/international waters. There was a full dining hall, museum/library, and movie theatre on board. Plus all the cars underneath! There were cabins, but I just put my sleeping bag on the deck. Some people had little cots and some people tied up hammocks. $300 USD (i didnt have a car), plus I had to pay for food once I was on board. I’ve never been on a cruise, but I would do a long ferry ride again in a heartbeat











It was cheaper, more fun, and had more amenities than a flight 🤷♀️ plus there was whale sightings every day and I got to meet a lot of cool people. I’m sure you are right, but it didn’t feel like an upsell. The cabins were upwards of $1k but they fit four people, and most people just slept on the floor like i described above.
