Cruise ships are going to be crowded, especially if you cruise when a lot of kids are out of school. The only way you are getting a cruise that isn’t is to book on an ultra-premium line.

Not understanding why people down grade a cruise due to crowds and covid fears. If that bothers you , don’t cruise. Many of the complaints are things people should have known about before that stared the cruise.
