Creator's Key Takeaways
Working on a cruise ship comes with a host of amazing perks. Free food and accommodations, in demand job training, and solid pay depending on your country's cost of living.
But let's be real, it's not all sunshine and rainbows, though those are around. Cruise work is intense, no matter the department.
In my opinion, aiming for a job in one of the big four is your best bet for your first time.
The reason the cruise pays per month and not per hour is under this context, I was only earning $6 an hour.
