While you’re soaking up the sun, sipping on a cocktail, unwinding at the spa and helping yourself to the buffet, cruises can seem incredibly effortless. Yet for the army of staff that make sure things run like clockwork, pulling off the perfect cruise takes a huge amount of effort. Especially if it’s an epic round the world voyage covering tens of thousands of nautical miles. To give you an idea of just how much heavy lifting is required, we’ve put together a snapshot of some of the mind boggling numbers that make up an average global circumnavigation itinerary for some of the world’s leading lines.
