ConwayShow Never been on a cruise and never will. I've always thought they were floating germ factories.
🛳I love a good SALE but this doesn’t look good for the cruise titan! I don’t think any other cruise/travel market is able to make the purchase. Pockets are tight in that industry. Anyone see good times ahead from the lido deck? travel vacation cruise
ConwayShow I would imagine there is only one potential buyer on Earth, and his name is Jeff Bezos. Other than that maybe craigslist?
Yes, but a) who has the money?!,and b) what bank(s), are going to lend that kind of money for a very LONG wait for a return!? And (c) are they a 'job lot' sale!?
Maybe the flat earthers can buy one cheap and sail to the south pole to test their theory. FlatEarth
