Apart from when I was an infant - have never done a cruise for many reasons outlined by Lynda and husband gets extremely seasick.Sure but the big ships don't usually rock like that. Husband has been ill on a ferry in Thailand. Nothing on a rocky cruise ship. Stabilisers help immensely. The Manly Ferries act like corks in a whirlpool.
We would need do so graded exposure therapy before I can even entertain this.!! Family member has just bought a boat so I will devise a little program and manage it myself before considering forking over the filthy lucre on an actual cruise.
As we head to the next decade (our 70’s) it may be something we have to consider to keep travelling.
I prefer smaller as don't want the travel to sights when ships have to dock far away/no kids/gambling/ and better drink pricing so my non-consumption of alcohol doesn’t subsidize the rest while I have access to fizzy water and soft drink (the usual).
Ah well - I have lots of time to research.
Now where are my notes from that civil aviation medical course I did in the 90’s where the Ansett psychologist (yes it was a thing) ran paid courses for pax with fear of flying?
