Greetings Ben.
You may think he has a big mouth but it should be remembered he also set up Easy Jet which is a very successful airline and also some other companies with the ' Easy ' at the start of their names.
He gives a lot of the profits made from his companies to charity.
I wonder what he would think of you !
Any suggestions ?

There are A LOT of people who enjoy traveling, certainly would enjoy traveling by ship but never ever would consider to step aboard a contemporary cruise ship.
Whether they are enough to 'change the whole industry' is a different story (very likely not) but there IS a market for ships without the tasteless decor, ships that are not floating amusement parks ships where the traveling aspect is more in the foreground - and right now the '150 year old' cruise industry is not serving this market at all. easyCruise was a failure (e.g. calling it a cruise was where the problems started) but it for sure was an interesting approach to offer a different way of traveling by ship.

I agree with you that the approach was interesting. My problem is that he was yelling that he in his own would chance the cruise industry. And that is why I made the quite above.
Even you can not deny that he offered an unusual choice for cruising even if it was not a financial success.
Now, what was I thinking about you !
Oh Yes !

Time you remembered that not everybody has the same view on things.
It was Ben who slagged off Stelios first and not me !
If Ben can slag him off then why should I not say what I think and also mention his good points.
This sort of thing does not happen on my forum !
Seems you may also have a one sided view !

Maybe 'Neil - Ex P. & O. S. N. Company' is the pseudonym Stelios is using to post here and mentioning his internet forum was just a careless mistake. Think about it: People who own airlines can easily afford their own internet forum.
