luxury liners
Floating grand hotels
Luxury liners are large passenger ships offering high-end accommodations and amenities for ocean voyages.
The term evokes the golden age of transatlantic travel, when ships like the Queen Mary carried wealthy passengers in opulent style.
Modern cruise ships have largely replaced them, though the phrase persists for vessels emphasizing elegance over efficiency: The luxury liner offered five-star dining and private suites.
