Wish he wrote more about how the crew works and lives on a ship. About crew attitudes weather they think they are treated as slaves or happy in their jobs.

I thought it was kind of funny that even a crew member would describe a cruise with lots of kids aboard as "h*ll"! http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

I also thought the reference to HAL and PRINCESS as being old ("one-way cruisers") was interesting. http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif
