And this forum is mainly for people living in The Villages, for whom getting to four cruise ship ports - Tampa, Port Canaveral, Fort Lauderdale and Miami - requires no flying, so no airports.
That was the point. I was responding to someone arguing that a cruise would be the better option for getting to an OVERSEAS DESTINATION than an airport.

My point is - a cruise is not intended to provide transportation to a destination. A cruise IS the destination. Airports are what you typically use, to get to a destination, when a cruise is not that destination.
