274 day Royal Caribbean Cruise - Could you be on a ship for 9 months?

Someone will be stupid enough to do that. Because it’s broken into so many segments, you’ll have your vacationers who get amongst it. If you’re there the full 270 days and you go into a mad dash on day one? You’re an animal for one… and probably going to die/regret life. Maybe you don’t do that one lol
No thanks. I’ve never done a cruise and not sure I want to

So many possibilities for a disaster. Night one hookup and UH OHHHH…. Expecting on a cruise ship? No one would be that stupid right? Consenting adults and all that is fine, but like maybe be real smart about this oneImagine a single person making the wrong hookup early on?
One month would be my limit. I'll take one as soon as I hit the lotto!
On board pharmacy would be ideal, for a lot of folks, antibiotics and what not...

My son does it all the time, but he is in the Navy. Could I, no. I start to miss my house after a week and long to go home. Traveling is nice, but home is where the heart is.
Wifi, good luck with quality all depends on where the ship is located. Also it cost. AT&T offers $50 for a full 30 days, customers get 50 minutes and unlimited texts while cruising on select ships. So interesting cost info by ship line. https://www.cruisecritic.com/articles/cruise-line-wi-fi-and-internet-packages#norwegian-cruise-line
I too, am not a fan of cruises. Being stuck on a container with thousands of others isnt my idea of vacation.
Have never been and will never. A giant petri dish if you ask me. No thanks. Have a hard enough time couped up in a plane for a few hours
I've been on a few, but it's been a while now. Greatly prefer just travelling to my destination than being shipped there.
The only somewhat appealing "cruise" for me would be to Alaska to be able to view the coastline but even then I think I would prefer to just fly there and take a charter or something. Haven't really given it a lot of thought though
Helicopter ride.

The Antarctica voyage had me ponder a hot second about going on one. Same with an Alaskan or Norwegian fjord cruise. They have all been pretty badass from people who have gone
My parents did a Norwegian cruise last year, they absolutely loved it.
I wouldn't mind trying it out on The World. It's a cruise ship owned by the residents that own the cabins. So they get to have a say in where the cruise is going to go, i.e. they plan their own itinerary every year. And they don't need to be aboard all the time, they rent out their residences as well. The only downside being, you need 7 or 8 figures to own a residence on The World. You'd be more flexible than doing a 'standard' cruise, but at a price. Mind you, standard cruises can become quite costly as well. If you're into it, like many (older) couples, then why not.

There are worse ways and places to wake up
Wifi is included and free
I have done one cruise for a week and that was enough for me. I am out on this concept.

Lucky you, it was not on the last 3 cruises we were on. the wife went to Spain and cruised and it was horrid even while paying to get access.
