EASYCRUISE LAUNCHES.. NOT QUITE THE QE2

This is what the site www.easycruise.com says announcing the launch, The latest spin off from the low cost airline empire:

"The idea is to offer a unique holiday experience to independently minded travelers in their 20's, 30's and 40's. During the summer of 2005, our first ship, named easyCruiseOne (see our ships ) will be based in the French and the Italian Rivieras , one of the most glamorous parts of the world, known globally as the playground for the rich and famous.

Unlike traditional cruising, the ship will stay in port in the afternoon and the evening to encourage people to have fun ashore and sail in the early hours of each morning for the next destination. The flexible one week allow you to embark and depart at any port on the route provided you stay on board at least two nights. "
