Year: 2014-2019 Author: Exploration Production Inc. & Discovery Channel Language: English Genre: Documentary Playtime: [S01] 4:30:10 + [S02] 4:24:01 + [S03] 3:39:53 Quality: WEB-DL Format: MKV Video codec: AVC/H.264 Audio codec: AAC Video: 1920x1080 (1280x720 S03) / ~13mbps / 16:9 Audio: 224 kbps / 48.0kHz Description: Mighty Cruise Ships is a documentary series that invites viewers behind the scenes of some of the world’s largest and most luxurious cruise vessels. Each episode follows a different cruise ship — from gleaming mega-liners to expedition-class ships — as it embarks on voyages to exotic destinations, carrying thousands of passengers through seas and ports around the globe. The show doesn’t just focus on the glamour and holiday lifestyle: it delves into the complex mechanics and logistics of modern cruise travel. Viewers get an insider’s look at what goes on above and below deck — from navigation and docking in narrow harbours, to managing hospitality, safety, maintenance and crew operations — revealing how much coordination, effort and expertise is required to deliver a seamless voyage. Also highlighted are the challenges faced by crews during demanding situations: harsh weather, tight schedules, high-stakes manoeuvres, and the constant pressure to meet passenger expectations. The narrative balances technical detail — ship design, engineering, seamanship — with human stories from staff and guests alike, giving a vivid portrait of life at sea. Whether it’s a tropical cruise, polar expedition, or a journey through historic waterways, Mighty Cruise Ships captures the scale, complexity and wonder of travel by sea — turning giant floating hotels into compelling stories of ingenuity, adventure, and human endeavour.
