Mirror, mirror on the wall...

... who has the youngest fleet of all?

No doubt about it, says Peter Shanks, president and managing director of Cunard, who is launching a new logo with the words "youngest fleet in the world" for the line's marketing material.

But wait, what's this on the Norwegian Cruise Line website? A claim to have the youngest fleet on the planet (clearly the world is not enough).

And this on the MSC Cruises website? "The most modern fleet in the world." "Modern" is not the same as age, it's true, but it's quite clear what they mean as underneath it says their ships have an average age of five years.

Who is right? More to the point, do cruisers really care?
