"Prices for the cruise, which includes stops at Tobago, Isla Margarita, St. Lucia, Grenada and St. Vincent, are as low as 799 British pounds, or about $1,240."



Meh this seems like the kind of trip you'd go on if you didn't really ski, but you had nothing better to spend your money on.

Perma snow is absolutely terrible, so hard to make turns, like skiing on a slippy carpet.

I think it's a cool concept. Seriously though, think about it in reality... it literally takes up almost the whole top deck of the cruise ship. It would be really cool, but it would never happen because it would only draw in specific types of people. Cruise ships are trying to appeal to everyone of all ages to get more business usually. I don't think this would bring in the business companies are looking for. I'm sure they would have more stuff to do below deck, but it seems like a big waste of space up top to me.
