Really not sure how I messed that one up.
EDIT: But we can do better than that! The Oasis-class of ships are the only ones with a ~6600 passenger capacity, and they of course all have wikipedia pages [1]. And that lists the crew at 2200, for a ratio of 0.33.

- abtinf 7y agoThere are at least 26 Royal Caribbean vessels on that list--they are the ones ending in "of the Seas". Harmony of the Seas can handle almost 5500 passengers and 2400 crew.
- DuskStar 7y agoOuch, I completely misremembered their naming scheme then...
- abtinf 7y agoThank you for quickly acknowledging and fixing it--a simple error anyone could make. It also appears you are right that my claim of >.4 is too high. Browsing the listings, it looks like .3 is probably closer.
- DuskStar 7y agoI think I got things mixed up with Carnival, which does have a naming convention of "Carnival *". Either way, finding the actual ship on wikipedia and calculating from there is going to be better than extrapolating from other ships on the list. (And the post now does that)
