Have You Ever Traveled By Cargo Ship?

Many of the cargo ships offer passenger bookings. I’ve been watching videos and it’s interesting. I guess it depends on which cargo company you book but some have good sized cabins and private bathrooms, some not so much. Meals are included but it varies.

It would be a much more interesting trip than a fantastic plastic cruise

@SW-User wouldn’t have a lot of children running amok or drunks. Some of the cargo ships prohibit alcohol, some have small lounges with alcohol.

@SW-User sometimes I watch a video and wish I’d gotten a job on one of the cargo ships when I was young to see how I would like working on one. You go off for months at a time, I don’t know if you have to rent something in between jobs or go back home to your parents or what. Sometimes you’re away for 9 months at a time. Seems good not to have to drive back & forth to work. But you don’t really get a day off either, the work is continuous.

@SW-User everyone has a job to do and there are women working on those cargo ships
