Large Passenger Liners No Longer in Service

The era of cruise shipping started in 1966, with Norwegian Caribbean Line's Sunward. Large passenger ships built before then were all liners, operating on fixed routes, and gradually became cruise ships only as inter-continental passenger transportation shifted from ships to planes. This table lists all passenger liners, cargo/passenger liners and large ferries that were of at least 10,000 GT, were built after World War II but before about 1970, and have been scrapped, converted to some other employment, laid up indefinitely or lost. The ships are listed by original owner and year built. Comments or queries, please email info@navalmarinearchive.com.
