Cruise ships are literally floating cities, with some of the largest ships having a capacity of well over 5,000 people. They are found all over the world, with the biggest concentrations calling on seaports in the Caribbean and Mediterranean Seas and Scandinavia. Given that they tend to ply waters around scenic locations, aerial videos of these vessels are incredible to behold. Until very recently, aerial footage of large cruise ships was almost non-existent. Now, as you will see in these amazing videos, even the largest cruise ships can be safely and inexpensively filmed from virtually any angle.
