Yes, while at sea tsunamis are only a few feet high and often hundreds of miles long. It is not until they reach the shallow water near land that they reach their full height.

How would a hurricane affect you on a cruise liner?

If you are on a cruise ship and a hurricane is forecast, the ship will alter its course to avoid the storm. This may mean that the ports where you planned to visit are changed for other ports outside the reach of the storm. If the hurricane is active at the port where you will embark or disembark from the ship, your cruise may be delayed or canceled - or the cruise line may move the ship to a port away from the storm. Cruise ships do not head into hurricanes, except possibly on trans-Atlantic crossings where the options are much more limited.

Will a cruise ship encounter at least one storm?

"Predictions are hard, especially about the future. " - Casey Stengel. It's certainly possible that a cruise ship will encounter a light to moderate storm, but they try to avoid heavy storms, especially tropical storms, which tend to be somewhat predictable. When ocean liners were the typical way to travel between Europe and the USA, ships like SS United States or RMS Queen Mary traveled in any weather. On the other hand, it's possible that a typical cruise ship will encounter no significant weather during the average week-long cruise. So, you would need to provide more information about the type of cruise, the season, and the location.
