Very interesting. . . .

Can you please tell me the name of the cruise line that lets people take bikes? I bought a Bike Friday and thought I would be able to take it on a cruise and use it in ports. This would be great in Europe. Nothing is more than 20 miles away and what is that on a bike?

When I contacted several major cruise lines, they would not allow it. You could bring it in a suitcase, but not take it off because of security reasons. (It would not fit thru the metal screening conveyer belt?) I even sent them a picture of the bike in a bag so they could see that it would not touch their carpet.

I know you can take bikes on some river boats, but I could not find any major cruise lines that would allow it. I'd appreciate the info. Maybe some line has changed policy since I asked.

The cruise line I was on was Royal Caribbean. I don't know what the specifics were for the passengers who had bikes to bring them on and off the ship. I thought it was cool cuz I would have never thought to bring my bike on a cruise.
