A cruise ship or cruise liner is a passenger ship used for pleasure
voyages, where the voyage itself and the ship's amenities are part
of the experience. Cruising has become a major part of the tourism
industry, with millions of passengers each year. The industry's rapid
growth has seen nine or more newly built ships catering to a North
American clientele added every year since 2001, as well as others
servicing European clientele. Smaller markets such as the Asia-Pacific
region are generally serviced by older tonnage displaced by new ships
introduced into the high growth areas.
Cruise ships operate mostly on routes that return passengers to their originating port. In contrast, ocean liners do "line voyages" and typically transport passengers from one point to another, rather than on round trips. Some liners also engage in longer trips which may not lead back to the same port for many months. A river cruise ship has similar amenities, however is shorter, narrower, and has a shallower draft, allowing it to travel inland waterways.
