When I went on the QE2, the security seemed. .exceptionally light. Who knows what it's like now. That said, you're probably in little danger. Not much point in hijacking a boat, esp. when they could land 5000 seal teams on it via helicopter.

You Guys have heard of the Achille Lauro (spelling), Some Ahabs hijacked it back in the late 80's and held passengers hostage??
Can you bring your concealed carry peice?

I remember that ship. That was half the reason for the post. I going dang it. I wish I just had a old slabsides or mister Glock with me!! I don't think that mister Emerson(CQC7) can make it with the current situation. Wonder what type of firearms MAY be aboard. If they have skeet maybe a shotgun. Have seen this on some cruise lines.

About the only guns aboard ship are the shotguns for trap shooters. So, bring your extended magazine 870 along with a spare 20" barrel, 00 buck and slugs. I suspect that the ship requires guns to be secured in the ship's armory as opposed to cabins. Been told that there are a lot of unreported rapes on cruise ships.
Perhaps the most dangerous thing to watch for is food poisoning.

You're biggest danger on that boat doesn't need a gun. When that garbage barge decides to burn to the waterline you can bet the panamanian crew won't be holding the first lifeboat for your wife and kids. Recent cruise mishaps show they'll probably already be in it and gone before you know whats up. Better hope the cap'n doesn't run out of Halon, because if he does none of those houseboy heroes is going to charge a hose and go get it. I won't go on a cruise unless I have a bag that I could jump off with and survive for a long time floating.
Not sure of the legality of passengers bringing them, but I have a 12ga signal flare gun on my boat. Hand launch flares as well.
I doubt if you would have any accuracy, but you'd have a projectile. There's no restriction on purchase, so perhaps there's no restriction on taking one onboard.
Might be tough to find a good IWB for it though
