Why There Is Only ONE Ocean Liner Left?
While hundreds of cruise ships sail the globe today, only one true ocean liner remains in service. Here is why the era of transatlantic ocean liners came to an end, and the unique engineering that keeps the last one afloat. In this video, we explore the rise and fall of great ocean liners like the Queen Elizabeth 2, Titanic, and SS United States, and why modern cruising shifted away from dedicated liners to mega cruise ships. — SUPPORT CHRIS: 📚 Buy My Books: https://www.frameandcross.com/books/ 👕 Buy My Merch: https://chrisframeofficial.teemill.com/ 🛳️ Subscribe to The Maritime Historian on Substack: https://themaritimehistorian.substack.com/ 🛳️ BOOK A CRUISE: Whatever type of cruise you’re after, it’s important to have a knowledgeable cruise-focused travel agent to help you navigate the more than 300 cruise ships on offer.
