Cruise the Entire Fleet?

[jeremyosborne81]

As a baseball fan, I sometimes see people attempt to visit every ballpark in the MLB. That looks like fun, but maybe I want to try it with a company's entire fleet(?).

 

Of course, that's a system always in flux. One would have to start with the smallest and oldest ships before they're sold off.

 

It's also a lot more expensive ... Hmmm.

 

Thoughts?

I was more likely to try to be at every baseball stadium ,however,I only went to 10.

Scheduled to complete the "every ballpark" challenge this August, seeing the two Texas ballparks. Corona virus permitting.

Currently at 49 out of 50 states, so need to complete that task first.   If you must know, never been to N. Dakota.

BFF from high school became a map librarian.  Married a geographer who taught college geography.  They started out visiting every state, then it was every county in every state.  Except Hawaii, as she wouldn't fly.  They did Canada, too.  There is one person on the Carnival board that has sailed every ship in the fleet, old and new.  EM

Not for us.  Every one of the mass market cruise lines that we have been on has some ships that for one reason or another we would not consider.

Have absolutely no interest in sailing every ship, sailed somewhere about 40 different ships , been on almost 70 cruises.

That's ok. There's nothing in North Dakota anyway. Not even Mt. Rushmore.

First nine Princess Cruises were on nine different ships.  Not planned in any way.  We were driven by itineraries and it just happened that way.  Doubt I will ever sail them all.

We went cross country in the US and Canada and saw a great part of both countries.

Relative to ships in a single fleet, we have been on 18 different ships - at least one in every current ship class - with both RCI and Celebrity, with the exception of Celebrity Edge class.  And repeated many several times.  Just happened as those two cruise lines are our current choice of lines.  We will add other lines down the road.

 

As far as states, 42.

We've sailed on 12 out of the 18 current Princess ships. We probably won't make it to the ones we're missing since they're scheduled for Australia and Asia (or at least they're still showing up on those itineraries). The Pacific Princess gets around. We came close to booking a cruise on it but got a great price on the Caribbean Princess instead that year.

I think it is a great idea.  Having an objective like that can add a lot of fun, even if it is never fully achieved.   

 

I knew someone with the goal of buying a souvenir bat from every MLB stadium.  I took him by the Oakland Coliseum once while we were on the way to the airport.  Unfortunately for him, it was closed.
