You must probably see this hundreds of times, but here we go:
Been looking at doing tankers for the last seven months or so, after deciding that I would probably not have enough patience to wait for passengers late back to the ship (imagine finishing the cruise with half the number you set out with...), but after reading the horror stories last night, I'm not so sure. I've read Fox's and AlistairUK's blogs from end to end, and I still can't decide which way to go.
Obviously tankers/cargos pay more and you have more leave, but that isn't the main reason for my (eventual) decision. The other beauty of tankers is that you're 'forced' to save your earnings when you're on board, because there is no where to spend them, where as the Cruisers all have rather expensive shops on board!
