Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“If you hear 'operation bright star' on the tannoy, it means there's a medical emergency on board.
βœ“If you hear 'operation rising star', it means there has been a death on board.
βœ“Consider taking a behind-the-scenes tour on a cruise ship to see how waste is processed.
