Why Cargo Ships No Longer Host Tourists
Most cargo shipping companies, such as "Maersk Line," have ceased transporting passengers due to the COVID-19 pandemic, amid challenges related to health, safety, and maritime security, which have become more dangerous because of wars and piracy. In the past, cargo ships provided economical and inspiring means of transportation for tourists, but as circumstances changed, companies now rarely allow passenger travel. However, some small vessels and private lines continue to do so. Currently, new projects are emerging that utilize solar energy and sails to transport passengers sustainably, such as the "Neoliner Origin" ship, which set sail in 2025 and offers transatlantic crossings, with high demand reflecting a growing interest in traveling aboard cargo ships, despite the fact that most shipping fleets have ceased such services.
