What Happens If You Die On A Cruise Ship? Feat. Caitlin Doughty (@AskAMortician)

It’s the side of cruising no one talks about. With 35 million people at sea every year, it’s inevitable that some passengers never make it home. But what actually happens when someone dies on a cruise ship? From refrigerated morgues and discreet procedures to decades-old sea burials, we uncover the quiet logistics of death at sea, and how modern ships balance dignity, legality, and compassion when tragedy strikes. Featuring Caitlin Doughty (@AskAMortician) we’ll explore what’s changed since the mid-century liners and how the industry quietly manages this most human of realities. Oceanliner Designs explores the design, construction, engineering and operation of history’s greatest vessels– from Titanic to Queen Mary and from the Empress of Ireland to the Lusitania. Join maritime researcher and illustrator Michael Brady as he tells the stories behind some of history's most famous ocean liners and machines!
