Creator's Key Takeaways

when I worked on Royal Caribbean and I worked for Steiner I knew that ships that sailed out of Alaska generally made the most money

if you can get yourself on an adults-only ship then you're definitely gonna be making more money

the main reason people go and work on cruise ships is to see a bit of the world

I would actually not recommend going on a cruise ship for the reputation it has because as I've said in previous videos cruise ships change all the time

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Talk to colleagues and managers to find out which ships make the most money

✓Choose based on either itinerary or money, depending on what's more important to you

✓If you want to change cruise lines, provide a business reason to your supervisor

As there are hundreds of cruise ships bobbing about our oceans it can be hard to choose one to work on so in todays video I'll explain how to narrow it down to a select few and how to ensure you get on the ship you want.
