There are regular ships from Chongqing to Yichang

@Sinozsh：Then the OP should bring more snacks or instant noodles, as well as quick cooked rice. Because regular passenger ships do not include meals, meals are at your own expense. You can also choose not to bring them and order at the restaurant on board.

@土豆炖唐僧2016：Actually, I don't think it's a big deal to take a regular boat, as both regular boats and five-star cruise ships take the same route and enjoy the same scenery. If you take a regular boat, I think it's cheaper than a cruise ship. Just saying there's no meal included, I think we can bring some food or have an occasional meal on the boat.

@清韵绝：Upstairs, I advise you to prefer a luxury cruise ship with more facilities. After all, if you go into the water, you will spend four days, three nights, and four days on the cruise ship. Do you just enjoy the scenery, read a book, and have a cup of tea? If you have booked a four person or six person room. The comfort is definitely much worse. For luxury cruise ships, there are swimming pools, reading rooms, cafes, bars, and cinemas on top.

@唱过阡陌：To be honest, taking a cruise ship is already a kind of enjoyment. But this does have to be linked to the economy. If you take a luxury cruise ship, the price is twice that of a regular passenger ship. But the experience is definitely better, that's a matter of opinion.

@yz_144255914：If you want to book tickets, you can go to the official website for booking tickets for Meiya Three Gorges Cruise. The prices from Chongqing to Yichang range from over 1000 to over 10000 yuan. If it's just an ordinary ship, the price ranges from over 500 yuan to just over 1000 yuan. See how the OP chooses,

@小宋爱吃菠萝：A regular passenger ship costs around 200 to 1000 yuan.
