I've done plenty of travel, typically in the form of setting up camp in a given city for a couple weeks and getting to deeply know that place.
I've also enjoyed "pretending to travel." Yes, you only get a shallow dip/view of each place. But you kick back and enjoy luxury on a premium line. It's been nice with kids, too, where there's been good childcare built in and logistics are simpler. Cruises have been about 25% of my vacation travel days but I am grateful for the experience.
Different people like different things and different people have different circumstances. Best not to be too judgy.
(Now, cities may rationally choose they would prefer not to have cruise tourism-- that's a separate matter).

- mlyle 3y agoSigh-- people who read comments and don't take the time to understand them in the spirit they're written. Though since every comment of yours is down in the weeds or flagged, I'll still indulge you by explaining: Sure; it's not spending months or more (which I've done a couple of times). But most people tend to spend a couple days in one city on another continent and then move on to the next one; hitting 4-5 cities in a week and a half. If I'm taking a short trip, it tends to be longer than most people's idea of a short trip. Even so, we tend to go to one or two cities and surrounding area.
