Talk:CMA CGM Christophe Colomb

Passenger carrying?

The link for that (ref 4) is dead, and what passengers are meant?! The Crew I think not since it is usual/needed for any ship :P Okay for a very limited number of persons there might be space inside the ship where no containers are, but it would only make sense as an extreme cheap variant to travel from Asia to Europe or the US for example... Passenger chips are also in lower pric-class available, or the "cheapest" room on one of the large passenger ships, you get a mini cabin for 2 or even 4 men and than you can travel very cheap too I guess, but since passenger aircraft were developed from Pre-War Junkers-52 Transporter (the regular flights over the Andean from I think 1936 with the Junkers was one of the first "commercial" lines which were served with at least 1 flight per week for the most if not all time of the war... but also the aircrafts back than were turboprop, with only a bit more than maybe 1/3 speed of an modern jet, so today people who want to try their luck usually take a plane, people who wants to make a 7 to 14 day tour (or even longer?) around half the world are for fun.
