passenger liners
Seagoing people carriers
Passenger liners are large ships designed primarily to carry travelers across oceans or seas on scheduled routes.
The term evokes the great transatlantic vessels of the early and mid-twentieth century—ships like the *Titanic*, *Queen Mary*, and *Lusitania*—that provided regular service between continents before commercial aviation.
Modern cruise ships serve a different purpose, emphasizing the voyage itself as entertainment rather than transportation between destinations.
