DESCRIPTION
The TVT Passengestic-class starliner is a bulk passenger transport commonly seen plying busy hyperlanes across the Galaxy. 105 meters long, served by a crew of 30 and able to carry 4,000 tons of cargo and up to 1,200 passengers in "economical" comfort, the Passengestic is a staple of long-haul spacelines. Though it has been criticized for some of its shortcomings - a tiny crew-to-passenger ratio, poor quality in-flight sleeping and eating options and only 1 refresher per 100 passengers - the type has been in service for several decades now, and shows no signs of being retired any time soon.

Passengestics were not designed to go off the beaten path, being meant for steady, predictable service on well-traveled routes. They carry no defensive armament, although they do have decent shields. Of note, they have a small internal docking bay which can accommodate 2 shuttles or other, similarly sized craft, usually used to ferry crew, passengers and cargo to and from destinations where the ship does not actually bother to land.

LEGALITY
Legal. Bulk passenger liners such as the Passengestic are considered innocuous enough under most jurisdictions, and are not restricted in most systems.

INTENT
To create a standard bulk passenger liner.

RESTRICTIONS
Though not especially rare, Passengestic transports can carry a phenomenal amount of passengers relative to their size; they are also not ideal for personal ownership, as they are much more expensive to maintain and operate than a standard light freighter. They are typically faction assets, although they could also serve as the focal point of a player run business venture.
