Looks like Debbie has the answer................charter the entire dang
ship. Seems as that's what they did with only 89 travelers. Of course
it will likely break your ham radio budget for the year, and then some.

"...Some information from Debbie - N5DSR Bio page.
https://www.qrz.com/db/N5DSR
We have just returned from a 7 (+1) day cruise on the Carnival Breeze out of
Galveston, Texas, January 8 through 16. The Ports of Call were Jamacia,
Grand Cayman, and Cozumel. Our arrival back in Galveston was delayed due to
fog which gave us another 24 hours of operating time!
We had a total of 89 travelers of which 59 were Amateur Radio Operators! Not
only were there many contacts, many new friends were made with great
conversations around both operating positions. We only ran 75 to 100W, but
the 'salt water amplifier' combined with the 1000' steel hull created many
pileups. Thanks to all the amateurs who worked us!!!!"
