The Titanic wasn't a cruise ship. It was an ocean liner, which is different than a cruise ship. Cruise ships aren't used to bring people to a final destination, ocean liners are which is why cruises move at a leisurely pace while ocean liners try to make the journey as fast as possible.

Its not even shady anymore, all shipping companies abuse the system.
To the topic fuel consumption: Let's accept, that the cruise ships use heavy oil. This type of oil is defined by a wight of more than 900kg per 1000l. 1 gallon(US) are about 3,785l. So we could say that 1000kg fuel are estimated 278 gallons (about 950kg/1000l). The daily fuel consumption of a cruise ship is mentioned with 150 till 250 tons daily. So a ship burns 200 tons or 55600 gallons a day. This clip also says that this ships cruise with 23 mph. So a ship can move up to 552 miles a day. When we combine the daily fuel consumption of 55600 gallons and the 552 miles, we are at 100,7 gallons per mile! 😲

Exactly, 1 gallon per mile would actually be incredible given the amount of weight they are moving, through something so much more dense than air.

As someone who's been on the second biggest oasis class ship, they're gorgeous and I didn't see a walled off room, at least not on my floor because both rooms had a balcony in my hallway. One room had a view of the ocean and my room had a balcony looking out over the board walk area and it's awesome.

Fun fact. When Hurricane Katrina hit New Orelans, my family and neighbors had a trip booked with Carnival, and the hurricane sunk the ship we were set to cruise on. We never got a refund (thousands of dollars for 10 people) so I won't be cruising with Carnival next time I can afford to. Maybe it was insensitive to expect a refund during a natural disaster, but my mom worked herself to the bone for over two years to pay for all of us. A cruise was the last thing she wanted to do in this life before she passed away, and they took the opportunity to ever go away from her by refusing the refund. RIP mom, still upset with Carnival on your behalf.

I always thought cruise ships were longer. Some of the barges I’ve pushed, on the Mississippi River, are a lot longer and wider.
@eliasshedd
2 жыл бұрын
Kind of. You're pushing a barge that even just the containers are 1000 ft long and about 150 ft wide? You're tugboats what about 130 ft long. So yeah all together Your Vessel is about 1,150 ft long. This of course means that you absolutely could land a plane if your doors weren't so bumpy. You should tell your boss to send a plane to get you at the end of the month instead of sending a van. Cheap boss.
Carnival Panorma has a ride on board the ship. I was on the ship in September and it was incredible!
This is actually useful info, I plan on owning a cruise ship one day
Being on the 2nd largest cruise ship as of 2023, I can agree that these ships are amazing and huge. I’ve been on more than 10 cruises and these ships are amazing from roller coasters to water slides circling the ship.
In fact there’s only three smokestacks on the titanic the fourth corners for looks

Hello yes a new vid
Flag of Convenience!!
the crew are in the belly, treated like a dirt, according to Liberian law - paid equally. LIberian wage.
You spoke more about how cruise ships work rather than explain in detail why Liberia!
I just have to mention the food on a cruise ship is EXCELLENT!
I was kinda hoping for a mention of full metal cruise as a themed one :P
8:03 I feel bad for whoever that is eating jamie oliver's style asian cuisine such as egg fried rice.... The fried rice should be used as moisterioser for Gordon ramsey since its so wet.. Haiyah.
As a former crew member. Very accurate.
Did you know the Titanic was designated RMS for Royal Mail Steamer because it was authorized to carry letters and cargo?
Jamie Oliver is the head chef? Chili jam Oliver? Amazon Green Thai curry Oliver? Instant rice Oliver? Ah I see why people are running to the suction toilet.

I often think in terms of Titanic's So far I haven't been a huge fan of cruise ships that are four times the size of the Titanic. I like smaller cruise ships. I like cruise ships that are only three times the size of the Titanic. Like the Carnival Breeze is more my size.
These recent videos are really not that good. But I love this channel
I was on Cunard Queen Victoria and it has a lot of black paint on the lower half of the ship

queen marry 2 is an ocean liner. there's a difference between a cruse ship and a ocean liner. for a cruse it's about the voyage itself but with an ocean liner it's about geting from point A to point B

A little Titanic (RIP) trivia. The fourth smokestack was put there just to boost the look of the ship.
Freaking cool
This could’ve been a 30 second video
A cruise ship uses a gallon of fuel for every mile. My fire truck gets 3 miles to a gallon. How are the ships so much more efficient, besides the electric motors assisting? We need this technology!
I looked at the title and guessed it was for tax purposes.

Yeah it's also not close to true a gallon of fuel weights at least 5 pounds and the ship uses hundreds of tons a day. The ship is not traveling 60, 000 miles a day.

A gallon of fuel every mile? It's probably more like 5 gallons every time a single injector fires.. in reality it's more in the ballpark of 120-175 gallons per mile

The titanic did not have four smokestacks One of them was fake for the same reason as today’s ships have at least two People thought it gave the ship character
How is security on a cruise 👀
VERY EArLY
Titanic isn't a cruise liner it's an ocean liner like Queen Mary 2 which is designed for transatlantic journeys in speed rather than leisure.
my question is what titanic sinked it fire,ice,or German uboat
