10 Things Crew Members HATE Passengers Doing (part 2)
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator presents a list of ten behaviors that cruise ship crew members find frustrating or problematic, based on feedback compiled directly from crew members. The video begins by addressing hygiene concerns, specifically noting that many passengers fail to use handwashing stations or sanitizer when accessing buffet areas. The creator explains that crew members value their personal time and request that passengers do not approach them while they are eating or during their shore excursions. Other points include the importance of leaving venues promptly after shows to allow for cleaning and set changes, and the necessity of being prepared with cruise cards and bags during disembarkation or reboarding to avoid security delays. Regarding post-cruise surveys, the creator advises against personal attacks and encourages passengers to mention positive experiences to ensure good services continue. The list also covers respecting restricted crew areas, listening to staff instructions, following safety policies without questioning them, and avoiding disrespect based on a crew member's nationality. The video concludes by inviting viewers to share their own observations and experiences in the comments section.
