What is chandris line?

Chandris Line was a passenger shipping company that operated ocean liners from the mid-20th century until the late 1980s. Founded by Anthony Chandris in 1960, the company began as a small Greek shipping firm, but rapidly expanded its fleet, becoming a leading provider of transatlantic travel. It was known for its luxurious amenities, outstanding service, and remarkably affordable fares. The company's ships were popular among tourists and immigrants, with routes from Europe to North America, the Caribbean, and South America. During its heyday, Chandris Line host many famous personalities as cruise passengers, including Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. However, like many other passenger ship companies, Chandris Line began to decline in the early 1980s due to the rise of air travel and the oil crisis. The company was eventually sold to Royal Caribbean Cruise Line in 1988, but the legacy of Chandris Line remains as a classic in the history of ocean liners.
