The title speaks for itself.
A cruise-liner with replenishment-at-sea, where a supermarket liner comes alongside once a week, and eager passengers are winched over by breeches buoy to stock up on beer and ready-meals to be re-heated in their cabins.

But wait, it's not cheaper, it's more expensive [zeno, Oct 06 2010]

So each cabin needs to have a kitchen? Or are you
suggesting that they'd get airline food, but cold
instead of hot? |
|
| |
You know what they say though, give a man a fish... |
|
| |
//So each cabin needs to have a kitchen?// Yes, but that's simple, because you've eliminated all the cabins required by the restaurant staff. |
|
| |
Also, replace cruise ship cabaret with a likely similar karaoke disco. |
|
| |
Or, you could just let people rent out an empty cruise liner and get them to do everything. |
|
| |
Do we get to drive the boat, too?? |
|
| |
I believe the preferred method used by Easy Cruise is
to make the cabin as small and spartan as possible
and encourage the passengers to spend more time
and money in the common areas. |
|
| |
Edit: Hehe, Spartan cabins. Raaaaaawwww. |
|
| |
Or simply replace the buffets with vending machines. No, wait. The ship would then become top-heavy from all the passengers having to carry around bags & bags of coins... |

You could do Iron Chef cruises. ... Get a Gordon Ramsey
type to plan the menu, have a group of chef wantabe's do
the preparation under 'Gorndons' watchful eyes, and the
rest of the patrons determines who gets to cook on a real
cruise liner, who gets honorable mention, and who get to
get keel hauled for messing up to bad! ... Also, get corn
based china look-alike dishes, so the dirty ones can just
be washed and dissolve. ... Don't throw plastics
overboard! and no dishwasher people. Still need some
janitorial staff. ... |

It wouldn't do away with staff, but it would reduce it
significantly. Do the same for the bar tenders, and
entertainers. |
|
| |
What mode of transportation is "messing up", where
is "bad", and why would I want to get there? |
|
| |
I like having staff onboard. The more the
better. In fact, let's eliminate the engine and
replace it with slave rowers and a drum.
Then we could participate in cruiser wars,
ramming other ships like on Ben Hur |
