Creator's Key Takeaways

i've been told by multiple people from all types of cruise companies that there will be no crucial leave when we go back on board

prepare yourself to not get off at all and if you do happen to get off then it's a nice bonus

i'm still gonna work on cruise ships even though i know that i won't be able to get off and the crew parties aren't going to be as good

Creator's Tips & Advice

Take six months worth of toiletries with you, including specific makeup, shampoo, and deodorant.
Bring a hobby on board, such as working on a YouTube channel, learning a language, or taking dance classes.
Be prepared for set times for eating in the mess and crew bar due to crowd control rules.

YouTube Video Description

Hey sailors, We are all so excited for cruising to return but there will certainly be a lot of changes. One of those changes will be that crew members won't be allowed to get off the cruise ship once they have embarked at the beginning of their contract. This means the crew won't be able to explore the ports which is one of the biggest perks of working on a cruise ship. MUSIC The music in my videos is from Thematic, a royalty-free music sharing site.
