A marketing group working with Virgin Cruises recently surveyed 1000 UK respondents, asking them which action-themed cruises they might be interested in with an eye toward "finding out the nations sense of adventure when at sea." We'll be taking a closer look at some of the statistics when they get back to us soon, but some preliminary--and interesting--tidbits they shared in their initial contact: One-third of all respondents thought that a Star Wars-themed cruise could be fun, with the next-highest percentage of respondents being Star Trek at 22%. Another 5% specifically singled out the Death Star as an experience they'd like to try (presumably without all the exploding into deep space bits). Not far behind Trek is a 21% vote for zombies, with another 15% opting for a Pirates of the Caribbean-themed cruise on the Black Pearl. Of course, Disney owns their own cruise line, so both Star Wars and The Black Pearl may be out of the question for anybody else. Given the aggressive branding for The Walking Dead on obstacle courses, zombie runs and the like, though, it may be worth reaching out to Skybound to see what the deal would be with a cruise line...!
