The Villa Vie Odyssey, a residential cruise ship that sold permanent cabins for up to $440,000, shut down in Cambodia on October 27, stranding passengers over fuel costs. Monthly fuel expenses per cabin rose 344%, from about $1,800 to as much as $8,000, and now run $6,000 to $8,000 in parts of Asia. The company says per-cabin fuel costs have quadrupled since the Iran war started. The discussion centers on residents who gave up their homes for a ship that no longer sails.
