Abstract:

Based on a brief description of the development of the world mail ship, this paper reviews the current situation of the ship industry’s abuse of the term “mail ship” in the ship industry by experts and peers in the shipbuilding industry. The author once again appeals that the language of the ship industry should keep pace with the times and standardize the use of the ship’s term “sea travel passenger ship”.

Key words: sea tourism, passenger ship, cruise ship, mail ship
