I would go to Hawaii on the Norwegian Star as I have seen her in Victoria and she looks like a neat ship to go on. Then maybe the Carribean and also of course Alaska would be neat too.

I don't know much about cruise ships, but after being the largest ship in the world, I have seen a lot on the QE2, so that is my choice.

QE2 stands for Queen Elizabeth 2, NOT the QM2 (Queen Mary 20 which is really the largest cruise ship in the world, so you just chose to go on a rather small ~30 year old cruise ship. You were both thinking of the QM2, see M not E.

Thats alright but if you did know that before voting what would you vote for. The biggest on that list is Voyager of the seas, then Jewel of the Seas, then Infinity, then Norweigan Star, then Rotterdam and finally the QE2

The only reason I wouldn't want to go on a cruise ship is because of sickness out bursts that happens on some voyages where the ship has to turn back because everyone is sick. I know it doesn't happen often but at least every year there is one or two according to the news.

Royal Caribbean had many alaskan runs this year with 3 ships not one had a outbreak of disease. I am not sure about other companies. As long as you use the hand sanitizer things before you eat or reboard the ship.

This is not a real cruise ship, but I'd love to do some "Alaska Marine Highway System" cruising one summer.
This is outside of my current budget, but if money were no object, here's my trip:
- go from home on Vancouver Island to Bellingham by BCF & Amtrak.
- take the Columbia from Bellingham to Skagway, with a reserved cabin.
- rent a car, and drive to Anchorage & then to Homer.
- take the Southwestern route ferry "MV Tustumena" from Homer, to Kodiak, and out all the way to Dutch Harbour. This is as far west as you can go in North America, I think.
- Spend a week in Dutch Harbour, soaking in as much Aluetian culture as I can.
- Take the Tustumena back from Dutch Harbour to Homer.
- then maybe fly from Anchorage back to Vancouver.
I can dream...

I would go to London on a cruise ship, my old lovely home country.
But maybe not yet.
I have seen London on the Departures List from Canada Place.

No, I've seen destinations: ... London on the board outside of the Cruise Ship Terminal, in Vancouver when I used to live there.

I doubt it. But every once in a blue moon there are ships that do cruises around the world but they still stop at ports between. No regular cruise goes to london from vancouver.
