Ocean Liners vs. Cruise Ships
Cruise ships and ocean liners are really two very different types of
vessel.

OCEAN LINERS
Ocean liners came first.
Built for the open ocean routes.
Designed to transport passengers from point A to point B.
Have storage for more food, water, and fuel than their
cruise ship counterparts, and are built for the rougher
waters of the open ocean.

vessel.

OCEAN LINERS
They typically have more freeboard than cruise ships,
which simply means their highest open-air deck is higher
off the water than that on a cruise ship. This makes an
ocean liner a lot more expensive to build than a cruise
ship.

Their bows are long and tapered to allow them to
cut through the waves.

vessel.

Cruise ships
