In Week 4 of The Bachelorette Season 19, the cast went from the mansion to the wide open seas. The contestants moved onto a cruise ship for a European tour, making waves among Bachelor Nation members who have all the jokes.

Right away, fans were reminded of another iconic TV spinoff series set on a cruise ship.
Other fans saw some major crossover potential with another major reality series.
The nice thing about a cruise ship is the fact that it makes it a whole lot harder for contestants to leave... unless they want to just go overboard.
However, fans were worried about what the whole middle-of-the-ocean thing means for rose ceremony exits.
There was also the worry that the divide between Gabby’s and Rachel’s men might cause the ship to split in two... literally.
Fans were also amazed by the massive budget involved in chartering a whole cruise ship for a group of just a few dozen people.
The more likely answer, though, is that the cruise company probably made a major sponsorship deal.
No matter how the cruise ship came to be, it’s clear it’s a way more extravagant setting than previous Bachelorettes had.
However you look at it, it’s clear the men of The Bachelorette Season 19 are being treated to pretty nice cruise vacation.
And the cruise ship only adds to the wild ride of The Bachelorette Season 19.
Season 19 of The Bachelorette airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
